Three generations out for a November ride, an 02 4.6 2v, A 19 GT A10, and an 05 Shelby.
My 15 is put away for winter so took the 02 for the drive. Definitely harder to keep up but still fun!

How are these and the other pedals installed? I've always liked the more premium look of these.

The Mach comes standard with aluminum pedals, but not the dead pedal.
The dead pedal was easy. It’s an adhesive backed aluminum piece. You clean and put included adhesive “promoter” on the dead pedal, and stick it on. Let it sit for a day and you’re all set.

Option 1 is best. I have Sottozzero 3s on my Bullitt. Car&Driver had/has a Bullitt in their long term fleet and loved their Sottozzero 2s and Tirerack said the 3s are even better. Had them for one winter in OH, did great. They're getting put on this weekend.

Option 2 is less good, but still better than summers. There's plethora of all-season vs winter tires, so I won't bore you with that. Just make an educated decision. :) Price/affordability of course is a factor.

Option 3 I forbid you to choose. JK :D S550 is suprisingly capable in snow. Clearance might be an issue with high snow drifts, but mine's been lovely for daily and even OH-DC trips in Feb.



Wow! Way to look out for fellow owner! Well done you.
Oh this car will NOT see snow/salt. I have my old car for that. But I’d like to drive it still in clear weather

patch/plug is what the pro's say. Think a mushroom plug would work? 275/40-19 stock PS4 with lots of tread left.

New license plate lights

i guess if it's bright enough the traffic/red-light cams can't read it? Or cops? I guess that's the new stealth plate - image so bright/washed out nobody can read it. Maybe extra silver/reflective paint for max effect?

Nah, the iPhone camera washed out the license plate. The plate cover is a Weathertech plate cover with a brushed aluminum border. Have one on the front too. The plate is readable, only difference is the light is white instead of yellow halogen. It’s a whole assembly that I replaced rather than just LED bulbs. The light is as bright as the iPhone LED flashlight. Here’s a better picture with a lower contrast closer to how the human eye sees it however the actual light output on the ground is dimmer.

I found some online, what best matches current pedals, brushed or polished finish
