The weather cleared up yesterday, so I got around to installing eibach springs and a new set of Forgestar's

I love the look and I'll be done for awhile before I sell the car

oh man!

Did you buy yours used? Or did Ford just forget to install them?
I bought mine "new"...

I'll explain, I picked my car but when I went to go buy it they had already sold it, so I found another car at a different dealer but owned by the same company, so I was about to go over there and buy it but the dealer told me don't worry about it we can bring it over here.

Okay so next day I go back to the dealer to purchase the car and I'm in the finance department and I notice the VIN number isn't the same one from the one I saw online.

The one I picked out had mag ride and safe and secure pack or whatever it's called.

Instead they brought me one without mag ride but it has the b&o Audio -- so I said okay fine it's close enough. Both were black, red interior, pp1. So I agreed. Then I noticed this one had over 1000 miles on it. So I started getting suspicious. Oh well I thought it's only 1000 miles how bad can it be.

Long story short, dealer did a bait and switch.

Luckily car hasn't had any issues, but I did find the battery cover without the push screws and recently found them down among the engine wiring. And now I find that the screws for the coin tray are missing.

So I have no idea what the dealer did but it's obviously they fucked around with something and forgot to put everything back.

My theory is one of the staff or manager was using my car as his daily driver, maybe the battery died, maybe they lost a key?? Idk. I know the f150s have a key reprogram slot in the center console. I don't know if the mustang does as well? If not then I have no idea why they would remove the coin tray.

Who did you go through for the hood? Did you buy it painted?

Drove it and noticed a race red PP1 with what i assume is a procharger (huge intercooler) parked around the block from my house. Then began considering going boosted again

Worry not boys!!! I found some spare 7mm flange fender screws that’s turned out to be the exact same!!! Not sure if the length is the same but it worked so... yay!

Just my luck...I purchased this charger and now I find that my coin tray is missing the two screws!!

So now I have to order two screws for $12 :|

Go to tractor supply, NAPA, ACE, and on & on a screw is a screw ... Looks like that rig with the toy jammed in it, will be in the way of the fun toggles.

Can't live without the silly cell phone ? What a shame, get a hobby LOL
