Alright, so heres the situation:

My brother loves his 89 notch Mustang. Its got all the goodies:

331 from D&D Motorsports
Trickflow upper & lower intake
BBK/Edlebrock throttle body
BBK Cold air
Complete MSD ignition system
(Thats all I can think of right now)

His birthday just passed and I'm wanting to get him something for his car, but can't really figure anything out. I'd prefer it to be in the $100-$200 price range if possible.

I know a bunch of you guys here have Mustangs, what would you want?

 

Buying car parts for gifts is VERY tricky because a lot of people are really particular. So I'd be careful. Just get him a gift certificate for Jegs or Summit.

 

How about a gift certificate to The Ford Collection store (www.fordcollection.com) -- there's all kinds of neat Ford-related merchandise on the site.....

 

I usually hate buying gift certificates, but in this case it might be a good option. People often hate to return gifts and will keep stuff they really didn't want, or wanted a particular type that you didn't get them.

OR, since his birthday is already passed, pump him for information on the car and see if he names anything specific that fits in your budget. My parents did that a couple times in past years using my brother as the person discussing the topic so I wouldn't be on to them.

If you end up going the route of the certificate, you might be able to get one from a local Ford dealer that stocks FRPP stuff. That way he could use it towards either performance or any replacement stock stuff as well.

 

A GAS card I love gift certificate ideas, but lets face it. What if you get one for jegs and he really wants something from summit ,etc. I like getting cash personally That way i can use it where ever I want on what I want.

I would do like a model Ford mustang with a couple hundreds rolled up sitting in the driver and passenger's seats

 

I was thinking possible a summit racing gift certificate so if he was going for something big he could use the $150-100$ towards it, or get a bunch of smaller stuff for that amount.

 

For me, a Summit Racing gift card is always worthwhile. I buy everything I can from Summit.
