Warmer weather allowed me to install my Christmas gift (louvers) from my wife. Also did the warning label delete and a little badge to engine bay.

Looks great. Wheel color goes really well. Stock ride height?
Thank you! I love the bronze color. too. Yup. Stock ride height. This is my daily driver here in Colorado, rain, snow anything. I need the height to traverse the roads. But, I am glad the S550 is not a high as many of the S197s or earlier cars.

Fired her up, backed her out of the garage and let her idle out in the nice sunshine for 20 minutes today. Nice weather, so I took advantage of it.
👍🤘

Picked up my Steeda stuff from the powder coaters ‘mid process’ after the chemical strip so I could remove weld spatter, dress a few welds up and blunt all the edges :

Now I will return them so they can aqua blast and coat them (Red) :like:

And they are done :

Looks good ... let us know if you notice a difference. I've got mine at home for installation when I do my oil change next month or so.
Thank you :like: The front brace ‘should’ be on quite soon but the rears could be quite a way off yet, now I have the rails on my order of jobs is :

• Front brace.
• Diff bushes.
• IRS support bushes.
• IRS alignment dowels.
• H pipe.
• Alignment.
• Then finally the rear braces.

:like:

I'm confused, why aren't they GL?
I like red suspension bits to add a bit of contrast. These are mostly hidden, with just the rear being visible under the arches / through the wheels / from certain angles / if you know where to look.

There is a chance that at the point I need to paint the rear callipers they may also go red / partly red and we have the red Brembo logo’s and the red 5.0 dot etc.
I did think about green, but I don’t think I could have matched it well in powder (I can’t even photo GL properly lol) and even if I did, I don’t think it would have stood out if people were to spot them under the arches - the red kind of screams ‘look at me, I’m an extra bit’ ... lol

The rear braces matched the other rear hardware . I thought about paint them also.

How is that spoiler holding up? I am looking to order one and wanted to know how the fit and finish is
So far so good, especially for the price. The paint was in much better condition than I was expecting it to be. As long as you take your time on installing it I think you should have no issues, plus it’s hard to beat the current price. The thing I like the most about this spoiler is that it’s subtle but big enough to make a difference on the overall look of the car.

That is one clean stang you get there but awesome thanks for letting me know. I know on AM they have different color options but for the black spoiler you went with was it "Black: UA" if can't remember no worries. Happy driving!
