One way you can improve topside aero is remove the spoiler and install the fin-shaped radio antenna you see on BMWs and such, which doubles as a vortex generator. That spoiler's design will give rear downforce unlike the strictly cosmetic ones, so removing it will make the rear end feel loose on the freeway. You'll need to weigh the pros and cons on that for yourself.
Also, seeing how aftermarket Mustang parts are so common, go with a set of lowering springs.

Took the spoiler off, so far very little gain, maybe .25mpg.
I am going to lower it tomorrow or so.
I've been toying around with the underside, but just can't make up my mind on what materials to use, coroplast or plastic or 20 gauge aluminum.
The reason I was thinking about doing a fast back conversion is to get closer to 13deg angle and they never made fast back so it'd be different for sure.
