Here’s a photo I took of our friend’s beauty after installing the cervinis grille.
Very beautiful:thumbsup:
What's done to do it besides I'm guessing, wheels, lowered, tint, marker tint, grilles&stripes?
I like that badge on the grille to helps break up the large opening. How was the overall installation process?
I'm about to put my modified upper gt grille&ram air scoop on my eb later today. So any real world tips would be helpful:hail:

I think Airaid intake tube and k&n drop in filter. The install took longer than normal because it does not use the stock clips. You have to screw in a bunch of plates around to hold in place and the mesh is screwed in too. Other than that all good.

Modified GT grille? Interested to see since I’m looking into doing something similar for the wife’s OF Eco because she wants the floating pony.

Funny you should mention that. As I actually modified the grille by cutting away all the honeycomb except for the pony with it's corral. Hoping it's gonna look good&be different to:D should have it done later today, will post a few pics if I like how it ends up turning out:shrug:

Velossatech ram air scoop, modified opened grilles&side pockets

Here's some pics. Stock gt grille opened up to leave only the pony in it's corral. Lower opened to match the upper, side pockets opened to match the actual scoop size. Velossatech ram air scoop in gloss black to match grille(first ever on a 2018.:ford:

Can confirm that after a quick test drive&a few hard pulls. Per in car sensors intake air stays within 2-5degrees of ambient temp. Before it would be as much as 20degrees over ambient in an type of idling or stopped situation. Even moving it wouldn't get this close to ambient. Imo worth the $ not sure other then a little added turbo spoiling up noise under full throttle. What it actually offers perf wise:shrug: best guess would be slightly better mpg on long trips&possibly a tenth or so at the strip.

Looks good! You should delete the shutters. How did you get the pony to float?

Painstakingly cut the honeycomb sections out with a dremel&cutting wheel. Leaving just the center mounting honeycomb part left. And then used sanding discs to smooth everything into some semblance of acceptable. Covered over all the nicks&stuff with a black sharpie:lol:

Thanks for the props:headbang:
