What did you do to your EU S550 Mustang Today

[Robby]

Does the hood vinyl count as racing stripes? 'Cause I kinda like it.

Some small mods I did in the past few weeks, that don't need a separate thread:

Steeda clutch spring assist
from Steeda.co.uk 11,75 GBP (+12 GBP shipping!! )
a softer spring that allows a better clutch engage control. It's a 10-minute mod and worths the price (without shipping...)
(tip: if you plan to order something from US with Stackry, get this from Steeda US for 15 USD and save those crazy shipping costs from UK)

right stock spring, left steeda spring

Stainless steel brushed dead pedal cover
from American Muscle 36 USD
A nice touch of class, matching the other pedals (as it should be from the factory addle

after

Ford Mustang Fender Gripper fender cover
from CJPonyParts via ebay 22,99 USD - in Europe you can find from Germany at about twice the price, here on ebay)
An anti-slip mat intended for protecting you fender when working on your car - just found that is perfect as trunk mat, without paying 100 USD for a specific Mustang trunk mat

:cheers:

Nice dual use solution ! also love the dead pedal cover.
Have to prepare a next batch with all these nice little things popping up...
First I have to check out the switchback test unit which should arrive just before the lux event...

You mean where I found them? They are called hood spears.

I bought mine here: http://www.stripeman.com/2015-mustang-hood-spears/

I took the 3M brand. There are other suppliers like Big Worm Graphics but they do not ship directly to EU but through stackry you could get them.

Another popular mod I did a couple weeks ago:

Brake calipers paint + decals
paint from Amazon.it (about 27 EUR), decals from Ebay US HERE and HERE (about 16 USD)
This seems an easy mod, but actually it takes a lot of time and work! Wheels are heavy, masking parts is time-consuming and painting requires some precision

Dupli-Color race red high temp caliper paint (very popular here)

High temp caliper Mustang decals

The rims covers most of the calipers but it's ok, I don't want to be too noticeable

:clap2:

Nice mod mate, looks way better like this :cheers:

 

[Robby]

Got the same setup. But, I'll go without the stickers (can't see them anyway). I also got High Temp Clear to put on top. Hope they come out good. Just waiting some good weekend weather. Rain is forecasted again!

 

[papinist]

I don't get high temp clear because.. I was afraid of making a mess
They look great and I did the job until the point I was sure of doing it right :lol:

 

[Robby]

I'll use foam brushes.

 

[vieirinha33]

looks very very nice papinist

I'm thinking about having calipers painted too, but with yellow

What do you think? http://www.mustang6g.com/forums/showpost.php?p=1292676&postcount=2373
