What did you do to your S550 Mustang today?!

Geeze, do y'all not have a decent dealer that sells tires ? Ours are very competitive with tire pricing in TX.

Unsure if my dealership sells tires but I wouldn't take it there anyway. They sold me the car and that's it. If Ford would have dropped my car off at my house and eliminated the dealer, even better. I prefer to turn my own wrenches for the same reasons I cook my own food most often. And currently, any service related task is an absolute shit show everywhere.

Well gee, if there was someone, anyone, you could have asked "before" you when to the shit dealer

My sales guy was great! Still text him cause he has an 18 and we keep trying to go on a coastal drive together but work seems to get in the way so far. I took my car in once for warranty interior work and that was enough. Their shop operations don't meet my insanely high standards. Pretty sure no shops do though so there's that. At least I'm honest about it. Then something happens like last night and I'm back to being dialed to 11.

Guess I'm blessed. Small, family owned. Third generation. Zip turnover in the shop as the owner takes care of his employees. My service writer is a hard core dirt tracker.

Mine's not too bad either. Good service so far. I had set up free oil changes with my purchase there and I was on the last one and the service guy came to me because it was taking longer than expected and put me in the system for another free one next time.

Definitely will protect it and make it shiny and easier to keep them clean.i have installed a few of these sets for Customers.you don't have to change the heater hose to put these on ,but some advice ,now that have yours painted ,be careful on the passenger side that the clamp ring on the heater hose does not scratch the painted cover while installing it.

Nice work! What was your process. Primer first? I see black sharpies. Were they used for all the black?

Its actually ALL sharpie. currently I have silver on the ones on my car and its held up well over 2yrs. I just cant really wipe them down with more than water or it will smear.

For these I used silver/red/blue sharpie paint markets, then a regular black marker for the lettering. I may spray it with a clear to make it easier to clean later, after I put a 2nd coat on.

Yeah its not to bad. The ones I have on now are already done a bit, the stripes and lettering are silver. I'm amazed how well just a silver sharpie held up under the hood for 2+yrs.
