What did you do to your S550 Mustang today?!

[Highvolts]

Not today, but the other day I installed the brushed aluminum dead pedal to match the other pedals. Just a small detail.

Nice! Is that just a cover or a whole new pedal?

Installed Steeda low profile Jack rails so I could remove and clean up my wheels and remove the shipping block my knucklehead dealership left in place when I took delivery last week. So frustrating!!!!

New rims and tires, mhp1 285/35 19r and 305/35 19r. I ceramic coated them today and I am very happy.

Looks great. What’s the exhaust in the background against the wall?

That is the original factory exhaust.

Nice little accent without going overboard.

Just the ceramic coat? Or including paint correction?

a legit shop charges easily $3k for level 2 correction and cquartz finest reserve, at least around here they do

I’m still trying to decide if I can trust a dealer to fix it, or if I should get the parts and fix it myself. I’ve never let anyone else work on my Mustang before. Installing a pre painted bumper cover is within my skill set. Painting is not.

never do it yourself. There could be ton of hidden damage, such as the inner panel and qtr panel flexing depending how fast the hit was. Have a reputable body shop take it apart. You get warranty on repairs for life if its a preffered shop with insurance company so you're covered

Both. Gtechniq Ultra. The paint was trashed from multiple dealer washings. It’s perfect now. He’s done multiple cars of ours and plenty of high end cars. Rolls Royce was up after the Mach. Diamond Shine Motorsports Palmetto FL.

That's a steal!

Don't take it to a dealer; most just send it out to some local body shop. Do some research and find a shop with a good reputation in the car community in your area. Never mind that it should be inspected for damage, I would be afraid a painted bumper wouldn't match well with the quarter panels.

My first time ceramic coating. Two coats of CQUK 3.0 + reload. Complete PITA, really learned that good lighting is key. So many high spots after the first coat.

Sunlight brings out the sparkle in the GB metallic.

.

Nice choice of products, looks brilliant mate.

Installed a GT350 steering wheel. Feels so nice. Lets see how long I can keep it clean

Get yourself some Sonax Alcantara & Upholstery Cleaner or Koch Chemie Pol Star.

Alcantara Cleaner | Sonax | Obsessed Garage
Koch-Chemie - Pol Star | The Rag Company

Colourlock Cleaning Brush | Leather & Fabric Brush | Obsessed Garage
COLOURLOCK - Leather Brush | The Rag Company

Clean semi-regularly to maintain the finish rather than doing a deep clean at longer intervals. Apply the product into an upholstery brush and work it in. Follow up with a damp towel to remove the cleaning residue.
