Painted the brake calipers and installed the OEM Bullit/Mach 1 shift knob.

After much deliberation I finally pulled the trigger on a spoiler. Went with the CS because Ford usually gets it right. The long hood made me want to add a bit to the back to give it a more balanced profile. Like to give a shout out to @JohnDoe for the informative posts regarding this topic. Your 2.3 is hot as hell and was a big inspiration. Thank you. Also, no more annoying satellite bubble on the trunk lid. Merry Christmas and keep it at the red line brothers and sisters!

LOVE the license plate. In 2003 I got a 2000 Silver Monte Carlo partly because I was a chevy guy back then and my favorite driver Dale Earnhardt drove one. My future ex wife told me THEN that that car was my "midlife crisis car...". She was wrong...my 2015 Mustang I bought in September is that car!! LOL

Well there was no instructions and the link on the website doesn't work 😅😅 There is a nice video on YouTube though...
The "hardest" part is to shorten the original shifter with a saw. Pretty solid metal.... And beware of putting the stick all to the bottom in the right position so it doesn't rotate.
Overall nothing complicated, should be done in max 1h30.

Thanks. Yes I noticed the no instruction part lol.
I have an auto and I’m pretty sure it doesn’t shorten it, so I think it sounds much easier

2019 Bullitt
Drove it after 3 weeks - was travelling for work and personal to Czech Rep and having not driven the Bullitt for 3 weeks, I was instantly reminded how fantastic this car is.
It might be also thanks to the piece of s*it MB B-class I had rented in Vienna, a soul-less and disconnected diesel 6spd manual (I refuse to rent automatics) - there the clutch I couldn't even feel.

Then I sat in the Bullitt today to get some errands done and I am going to have to delete some dash cam files, I was literally screaming and hollering like a baboon, being reminded how lucky I am to have this as a daily. Fukin love this car.

Bonus, the trunk is stupid practical as always. I can see why East coast mobsters use this to transport dead bodies - the trunk's so big, I had 230lbs of chicken feed and softener salt and it fit no problem.

See Henrietta (the brown chicken) already knowing that feed has arrived... Yes, I've named one of the silly chickens, ain't gonna stop me from delicious chicken soup in a year or so. :D

I never rent anything in CZ (and I am there a few time a year) because all you get is a Skoda lol

As I mentioned, I rented in Vienna as I fly there and it's closer to home/where my parents live.
Generally it's a Golf or Opel Crossland, I always ask for stick shift, but got talked into the Mercedes and that was trash.
New Skodas are pretty nice actually. Wouldn't mind if they sold them in the US, but all we get is shitty Volkswagens.

I did have a Superb when I lived in Poland, nice "limo". Never rented in Vienna anything yet, but I might next year, since my wife wants to visit Vienna.

Installed one of my Christmas presents…..Ford Performance shift knob. I like it much better than the stock one.
