My bday is coming up and my lady asked me what I wanted. My mind immediately went to car parts and I was thinking of asking her to buy the lower spring setup but she's a true gift giver and likes the enjoyment of giving so I feel like I need to give her some options other than springs. I don't want her to go crazy spending but all I can think of are lower springs because the CAI is expensive, the tune is expensive, I've already done my exhaust (sounds sick btw). Hope I could get a couple suggestions on cool parts I'm not thinking of. I intend to keep a relatively stock look but I like the lighting parts, interested in some interior parts/accessories, and niche parts. Thanks for any suggestions you might have.

Lowering springs are really a must-do in my book. Love the stance on my 2024 GT now. I went with Eibach and had local shop do the install. About $800 all in, and it totally transformed the look of the car. See photo attached, not the best, but you can see how it looks more "hunkered down" now. Totally worth it!

Yes I agree! Looks sick. Do you know the dimensions on how much your system lowered the front and back?

Those are pretty cool! Do you have them? If so, what was install like?
I have the MP Concepts LED Side Markers. Same thing super easy install. Just have a trim tool and some tape. They pop out pretty easy then simple unplug and plug.

Eibach tech data said 1.2" front and rear, I think. Whatever it is, you can see how good the stance looks. Not plumping for Eibach here, as there are lots of alternatives, but I couldn't be happier with these. The car looks great and ride is just as good as stock. Even my wife doesn't complain! You can't ask more than that! ;-)

Simple things like Lic plate frame of your choosing, or black lug nuts to blend in with your black wheels. car cleaning products, or air fresheners (I personally like treefrog black squash). Jacking rails are cool and useful if you work on the car yourself. Floor mats? Trunk accessories like cargo net or an all-weather trunk mat. Ford Accessories has some neat stuff, I've always thought the cooler would be fun to have.

Small gift-worthy mods I can think of: interior multi-color dome light, oil catch can, black exhaust tips, RTR side decals, vinyl lettering (engine bay).
