Added a fuel door and it looks great.

Where did you get your black vented scoops on the outer sides of your hood??

They are Roush brand. Pricey but they look aggressive. You can find them here:

Added a cover for the pony on the grill making it black.

It's a stick on plastic cover piece that was better than removing a replacing the pony for now. I'll see how well it holds up.

Blue trim interior from eBay, total cost under $5. If looking for this, search for 5M Interior molding. I went with bright blue to be close to the Grabber Blue.

I like that interior molding, adds a nice touch. I'm assuming it just sticks into the panel seams?

As far as the stock rear valance, I just used black plastidip on ours. Looks much better and is holding up fine.




I'd like to upgrade to an '18 valance/exhaust, but may just upgrade the car to a '19. It's a shame Grabber Blue is no longer available, 'cause I love it!

The trim just tucks with a long lip into the seems. Super easy to do. Ebay under $3 here: https://www.ebay.com/itm/5M-Bright-...e=STRK:MEBIDX:IT&_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649

When I saw Grabber blue in person I was sold. I actually like that they change colors every few years otherwise there would be a million Grabber Blue stangs out there. I thought about doing the valance with Plastidip but I didn't know if it would match good the sides. I did the mirrors in plastidip and thought they came out good but masking the valance would be tough and I don't know how to get that sharp of a edge. With the mirror covers it was easy to remove and spray, but getting a sharp edge line would be tough for me.

Any tips on masking?

I use 3M vinyl tape (usually 1/4") for the paint edge, then blue painter's tape over that. The vinyl tape follows curves well, and provides a better line than the painter's tape. With plastidip, you have to be careful removing the tape, as it will want to peel up the dip. I've had best results pulling the tape before it fully cures (just be careful), or scoring it along the masking line with a fine razor knife before pulling the tape.
