Gears - 3.73's are what's in the 05+'s IIRC, but you might be able to even get away with 4.10's because you're automatic.
Intake - go for it if you want it
Taillights - I like 'em!
Fog lights - get whichever you like more cause either looks good to me. But if you're gonna get darker heads and tails, might as well get black fogs too
Headlights - I usually don't like aftermarket heads, but I think the smoked halo ones look pretty good! Definitely smoked over clear, the clear look too aftermarkety. However, the smoked factory ones are by far away the best! Can you maybe do a retrofit and/or just add halos to the factory lenses on a mustang?
I do have to suggest getting the hood and fender painted before doing any mods though. I feel that that is the most important, though it's not as fun

i may just figure out whats wrong with factory fog light and smoke them my self.
Gears i will ask around i have to look at what i have first and go from there.
as for the paint have a buddy who will paint it and clear coat it i have a friend who will do it for price of paint and clear coat etc etc but after hunting season *hes a big hunter* so that will be taken car of mid jan.
think i may do HALO's and CAI this paycheck....or the tail lights so i can sell the tail lights and make some money back!

I had a feeling you had plans for the paint! So that's good.
I think whatever you end up doing for everything will look good. I did notice that you already had aftermarket tails, so that could be a good move!

Waz up Shifty?
Way to ride dude!
You still got that red f150?
I still have my pearl 97 but I only drive it about once a month. It needs allot of work including the left cats. A dear ran into the right side rear and dented it up a little. I will get back to work on it if I ever get kids out of college. The schools get all my money.
Ever talk to any of the yard dogs?

That's an intake that's actually an improvement and grabbin cooler air. Where's the air filter though?
Wait, so wasn't it supposed to be an entire tail light assembly? How did that happen?

The real camera does it much better justice! I'm definitely digging the black and blue color scheme you're shifting it to. I didn't notice the quarter window louvers or that the wing is black before, I like both of those a lot too!

I like it, but IMO you should switch the white Mustang letters on your bumper for black ones. Also plastidip the GT emblem on the side and gas door as well. would really complete the look.
Here are a couple pics of my 07 that I had. Was a great car until a soccer mom ran a stop sign and I t-boned her

Harley, my dad has an 07 GT in the same color, but a convertible (he should've gotten the coupe). I love that car though! I agree with the suggestion on the fuel door and lettering, but I think the fuel door should be replaced with a factory one that is PTM. And the GT emblems would benefit from the "flames" being removed. But I think Shifty already has plans for removing some of the chrome stuff that he deemed "trailer park trash"-like lol
