Sent the car off to get the full frontal (full hood, bumper, fenders, A pillar, leading edge of roof, lights and mirrors) XPEL wrap done. Once that’s done going to apply the Anchor Room rear impact/rocker pieces myself to help save a little cash. Super excited, should help avoid the sand blasting on the front end that drives me crazy on previous cars.

Nice. Care to share the cost of that PPF job and the location in the states? I'm shopping for one.

Got half my wheels. FedEx as usual has messed up. It was a two part shipment, and I had the "master" tracking number redirected to a local store. But only half was sent there, the other half is mysteriously floating around. Went from "on a truck for delivery" , to delayed by 5 days. In fact, it says my delivery date is a Sunday, a day they don't even deliver, lmao. So that's cool. But damn these wheels are really nice. Finish quality is excellent, and they're packaged better than they used to be. Now the top face is covered in a cloth with a little plastic rim protector ring.

Sure will be fun waiting until spring :/

Has 200 miles....added a catch can, put in the all weather mats, will be installing the Rokblokz soon.

Not sure how anyone removes the engine cover without lifting the strut brace.

Car was built in August got to the dealership December 30 and I bought December 31, must have sat outside at Ford because under the hood is filthy so I am giving it a good cleaning.

Eh, it is what it is.
I refuse to make it a garage queen (edit- it is garaged every day when not driven tho) and don't really want a third car in the house (wife has a truck), cause then all I'd be thinking is "I wish I was in the Bullitt today."

To each their own I suppose.
Although today we got a lot of slidey powder, ended up having to skip practice. Despite winters the rear wasn't getting enough traction.

I guess I'm shopping for about 3 bags of kitty litter tomorrow!
Instead of kitty litter went and got 4x tube sand. Wife's truck gets 2 and I kept two. So far no traction problems, but snow melted anyway. Better safe than sorry.

Please clarify. Not sure what your issue is.
Using the Ford Pass App, when I click on my vehicle it shows the gps location as Woodhaven MI instead of my state, even though it says it was updated today

OK, that’s what I thought. Try this.

1. Log off the app.
2. Delete the app.
3. Shut down the phone and then restart it.
4. Download the app and sign in.

If this doesn’t work go to help in the app and call Ford.
Good luck.

I'd also add that the app is not great, at least for my Bullitt it's useless. I think the 2019 Bullitts got screwed and didn't get the right modem, so I don't use it for my car updates. But on wife's 2017 F150 we got used works like a charm, auto-start and all.

I'm gonna try those steps above though to see what's up.

You‘re 100% right. Ford has never explained why the 19‘ Bullitt didn’t get the modem. Without it FordPass is pretty much worthless.

That's actually terrible for the suspension. And all that weight can cause serious over-steer issues, especially in bad weather.

But......it's your car. Do as you wish.

Xpel.com and look for their list of installers. I did a similar kit and with paint correction and commercial grade ceramic coating it was about $2300. My next car I'm just going to buy 18" wide roll and slap it across the front and down the side of the doors.

I've been prepping some minor improvements:

Steeda Bushing Insert
Steeda Shifter Bushing Bracket
Steeda Reverse Lockout
5Spurs Power Button

Nothing major, but I think they're good mods that'll improve the car a bit.
