What did you do to your S550 Mustang today?!

[nustang]

Sorry about that @nustang. Haha! It's my nature to point out potential failure modes like that.
I think I'll buy a set. I am on the fence between the 2 LED strip version or the brighter JDMtoy single strip version.
I know it's hard to quantify but how bright are the 2 LED strips compared to the rear taillights? Or how bright are they compared to the original lamp?

No worries, glad for the feedback to up my game !

well the OEM lights approx the middle 1/3 of the assy is lit.
The ones I bought have smoked lens, and are about the same brightness as the bulb was. They look crisp when close enough to see the 2 lines, and 'normal' from a distance, but lit the whole length of the assy, so are more visible.
I suspect the clear or red lens are brighter.
As for comparison to rears (parking/tail mode) not as bright - but complement the appearance. Not so dim they look 'off'. I think one of the pics show both together, and the tails are kinda bloomed out exposure wise cause brighter. IMO markers should be low key as they standout just being lit.
I have a grey car, lots of black accents - so smoked were my goto.

Thanks for the input. I think I'll pull the trigger on these. They're not a huge investment if they fail. But I will make sure that they will remain waterproof like you did. My car only gets wet when I wash it.
Going smoked too because one day... smoked tail lights.

As title suggests, this thread will be for 2015 Mustang owners to post pics what they worked on today, show off what they have done to their car recently, etc. Share and it might inspire some ideas for others to do on their Mustangs too.

I'll be getting a tint first thing in the morning and perhaps a car wash, will post pictures shortly!

So, what did you do to your 2015 Mustang today?

I wrapped my exhaust tips with CF vinyl.

I installed a black SR shift knob to replace my red one. It was a good install with the help of my dad. Much better. The alcantara steering wheel trim is holding up nicely, too.

Threw this little Gem on today, OEM part and about a 5 minute swap.

I like that. Does Ford sell those?

For sure! That link was more for the description for you. That's where I saw it first then I just found the cheapest place. I'm in AZ so it cost $11 to ship it so around $61 shipped.
