Sorry to be nosey, how much was your full front wrap ?
No problem. The full front wrap was $1500. He wrapped the edges and you can hardly find a seam. Very nice shop and owner, I'd recommend them anytime.

Added the diode lamp replacements including the switchback diodes today - well mostly. Ran out of time (have to attend a memorial service) and couldn't get the side light out on the drivers side. I'll have to get that wheel off and get some room tomorrow. My car and I have bonded now, as I've been able to shed some blood on her with a slip of them screw driver - as it should be.

No need to do all the extra work. Driver side just remove a few clips from the splash guard and turn the wheel to the right. Shouldn't take more than 10 minutes

picked up the majority of my differential cooler parts from my dealer today.

Waiting on a little electrical pigtail that has the plug end for the pump to come in.

also have to chase down the little hardward bits ( why ford, do you not allow someone to order the bolts? HT1, HB1, HS1

incredibly frustrating.

I also need to call ford performance to see if they can help me with the pin out on the pump itself. it is a 6 pin male plug molded into the pump body.

I'm wondering if the pump is a variable flow. if it is, that might make things a bit more complicated than wiring the trans pump. I may end up having to use a 2 stage radiator fan control module if it is variable flow.

Hey first time posting here, I just received my 2016 track pack yesterday and I’m loving it so far.

I installed the following this morning; Alcantara shift/brake/console (Removing the shift knob was a chore), Steeda clutch helper spring, and tinted the lights. Taking it to the shop tomorrow for a full Xpel ultimate and tinting the windows.

On a side note the dealer told me that I don’t need the 1k (km) oil change and that I should schedule an appointment at 10k (km)/6months :crazy:. I got the same reply when I called the service center; they told me all fords now come pre-checked or something along those lines. To clarify I’m living in Dubai and there’s only 1 official Ford dealer in the country. I received the car with about 25km (16 miles), so I genuinely don’t understand what they are talking about.

Should I just ignore the dealer and do the 1k oil/filter change?:shrug:

I wouldn't listen to the dealer. I changed my own oil at 200 miles. If I were you I would at least change it at 500 or 1000 miles.

That is the standard dealer line. Any new car its a good piece of mind to change the oil in the first 1000 miles or kilometers. Especially on a high revving engine like ours. Gets all the nasty crud from break in parts settling out sooner.

I did my first oil change today at 1500 miles. After filling out the paperwork I walked out of the office and noticed the tech taking pictures of my car. In the past they always did a walkaround to document any existing scratches so I thought maybe now they do this. Not the case. The tech just loved the car so much he wanted photos. Before taking it in I diluted the e85 with five gallons of pump gas which brought it down to e50. I notice that on straight e85 the engine takes a bit longer to start when it's cold and I didn't want to raise any eyebrows.

Installed Redline struts on my hood today. I liked the part of the install where the rod came off! Finished up the LED replacements (interior and Switchbacks).
