All of the hitches that are available for your 2012 Ford Mustang GT will install in basically the same place and they will not stick out too far. I attached a picture of the Curt Hitch # C11210 installed on a vehicle that is similar to yours for you to check out to give you an idea how it will look.
Since we do not carry the 1Up USA bike racks I can not speak on their behalf to confirm to you that it will work with a Class I hitch. Realistically it should, but you will need to find out if the rack is a Class I or Class II accessory. If it is a Class II rack it would not work on the hitch.
You will want to make sure you do not exceed the tongue weight rating of this hitch as well as the tongue rating listed in the owners manual of your vehicle.
I attached installation instructions for this product for you to check out also.
