What did you do to your S550 Mustang today?!

[The Demon]

Took the Friday off on a beautiful 80° day and

detailed the car. One of my favorite things in the world to do.

Yes sir! As a consumer I have the right to expect a certain level of service and a certain quality of product. Especially when the shipping costs were almost as much as half the product..

I understand accidents happen but to ignore me out right and just stop answering my emails? That's a no-no.

Besides I would hate to recommend the product and have a repeat of my own dumpster fire that someone else has to deal with. That would suck.

Completely understandable, I would be pissed if I had the same experience

Ordered the last of the hardware needed for the brake swap. Then took it for a drive tonight; rolled over 28k miles in the process.

Finally passed 800 miles on my 2022

Was going to install Ford Performance Oil-Air Separator but short hose is missing

LMR customer service replied to my email that a shipping associate is to confirm with Ford Performance the item is supposed to come with second hose

New shoes. Got 27k out of the OE Pirellis. Also ditched the single-use OE lug nuts for some solid ones. Discount Tire was crowded like a nightclub, but they busted it out in just under an hour.

Are these the Continental DWS+?.I had a set installed a few months ago and not really liking them.

Did not know know this -- OEM Lug nuts single use. What was your replacement (link please).

I'm referring to the tires,not the lug nuts.

Getting ready to change the oil in the 20. My 1st time doing this. The 2 year free maintenance period is up. What do I need to expect besides a lot of ol? Already got 10qts of oil and filter and 16qt drain pan.

Look out for the large stream of fast flowing oil. I used a pice of cardboard as a dam/deflector right about where the trans cooler lines are. Use this direct the oil into the oil container.

Yes. What don't you like about them?

I've only had mine a few days. They are quiet and smooth, but any new tire is like that. They are way better in the wet than the worn OE Pirellis I had, but again... new tires.. duh.

I dunno. My car is 95% all-weather commuter, and 5% Grand Tourer. Seemed like a good choice.

"Single-Use" is a bit of an exaggeration. On last rotation, the tire guys complained that some of the lug nuts were "swollen". I think the OE nuts have a cover or something like that. Anyway, this time they offered to replace them for 40 bux. I said "Let me see them". They were solid and looked nice so I said "do it".

MP Concepts GT500 spoiler fitted. Was killer today, car was reading 30ºC (86ºF). I'm a Geordie - we don't do heat in the north east. We do cold here.

Got to say, my dad and I were laughing at the instructions (or lack of). 7mm and 11.5mm holes? We measured them and actually, 6mm and 10mm were the correct diameters. And the spoiler didn't even line up with the supplied template. Good job MP Concepts!

So we drew around the locator pins and used them for our initial holes. Then we put some white chalk pen on the ends of the threaded screws and put the spoiler in place, and then used the transfered white marks for drilling the 7mm holes.

Anywho, alignment niggles adderssed, I stripped out the liner inside and then my dad was tasked with drilling. Thought I had the safe job. Screwdriver wasn't my friend today.

Popped some silicone on the threads as I'm paranoid about water getting in.

And the end results. I think it looks much better than before. Has more purpose about the rear end. We didn't put the gurney flap on - we think it looks better without. So I'll keep a hold of it and if I change my mind we'll fit it at a later date.

The Mazda paint seems to be a really good colour match as well. No idea why the Kona Blue Ford suggested was totally different on the swatch sample. Weird!

Put in some Weathertech molded mats and the truck liner too. That's it for this weekend.

Add the replacement drain plug.

Think about a Femco. Control the flow and/or lets you attach a hose. Lets you take samples any time or drain extra oil added for track use. No need to replace factory plugs and/or deal with leaking if used one too many times.
