Finally got around to installing my new grilles and front splitter. The splitter I've had since July last year and the grilles since March. Took a week off between jobs and did them both together. The grilles were a lot more of a pain than I remember on my 2017 though!

I also finished up the seat covers that I've had for a year too, just haven't taken pictures of those yet. Really loving the way they feel though.

RTR *style*, couldn't bring myself to spend the full $400 for it so this was $150 on eBay and the grilles were $72. I had the 50 Years corral style on my last one so I went the opposite and totally clean this time. Almost went for a Roush cosmetic set instead, but the splitter isn't really my style.

I'll be interested to see your seat covers.

Did my first rotate of my square 19x10 Apex SM-10s with 285 PS4s. Costco would do for free but they damaged a factory wheel in the past. Was going to rotate the Tesla wheels too but my QuickJack sprung a leak while doing the Mustang.

Also changed the oil.

eBay link please?

Is it lower than the OEM splitter?
Here you go. I didn't take measurements, but I'd say appearance wise the stock Ecoboost splitter is closer to the level of the ridge in the middle of this one and at least looks lower.

Thanks for the link. I couldn't make sense of your description.

Would you say the color and texture matches the rest of the trim (e.g. side skirts)?

RTR splitter does sit a little lower than stock just due to the size. It’s bigger all the way around. So, assuming the eBay version is similar, yes it will sit a little lower than a stock splitter. Not as low as a PP2 or Mach HP splitter obviously. Probably closer to a GT350 splitter would be my guess

Here are some pictures of the seats (@Snakebyte), captured about an hour before the downpours began here.

Like I mentioned before, I'm really happy with these. Definitely a pain to get done, but pleased with the result. Particularly for the price I paid which was just shy of $550. And I lied, I've had these sitting for just under a year, originally ordered on August 30th.

The appear to be nice quality. :thumbsup: Are they slip-over covers or did you need to remove the original outer seating surfaces (like Katzkin requires)?

These are official Roush covers which are full skins made by Katzkin, supposedly their top level leather from what I found before.
