EUROPEAN Group purchases

[UNtamed67]

Many of us, future European Mustang owners, have been talking about upgrades/mods/parts. I setup this group purchase Thread to find who's looking for what part and I'm sure we'll manage to make some interesting deals and save us some transport costs...

I'm looking for :
- Boomba Racing shift knob (per piece $ 40,- Freight cost)
- Ford Racing Borla Touring Ecoboost axleback exhaust (per piece $ 245,- Freight cost)

Might also be looking at :
- Mishimoto Intercooler
- Mishimoto air intake

Waiting for a solution on the front TRI-bars. (Diode Dynamics ?)

I'll probably be in the market for a second set of wheels. (Summer/Winter setup)

Also interested in an EU legal solution for the 'front tri-bar' issue.

Untamed, I sent you a pm about the exhaust.
I'll ask a buddy that imports parts and tunes car about shipping from US. He said he usually gets nice prices, ordering directly from the factory.

 

[Notes]

I'm in for a 15 Mustang 2.3 Ecoboost Plug N Play SC Oil Catch Can | UPR
But this week will point out if I have to order pretty soon or I have some time left...

I want\need to buy:
- sunvisor with universal door opener
- pony rear logo (not the entire decklid, should be doable)
- obviously the front led tribar, but we need a solution first
- red vynil for taillights, until we find a better solution to use US taillights
- central dash gauges, after we find that we can install it ;-)
- redline quicklift for the hood (we had first to check if we can use it)

I'll check prices when I'm at home.

Could you please create a shared spreadsheet on Google Docs?
I think it would be much easier to check and manage.

Thanks!

Do you think it's possible that the ford racing exhaust will be available directly from Ford of our country?

 

[NewMustangDE]

Or the 20" Ford factory wheels?

Nope it won't.

Answer from Ford Racing (via chat on their website) :
We don't plan to have the exhausts available in Europe. Q:Future, A: Don't know yet.
They told me an exleback won't change the emissions.
They are however not CE or TüV approved (yet) but to be honest I don't care if they are within or just without BE dB specs.

Euro db levels for mustang : 95dB (with 1dB tolerance ) environment dB should be less than 10 dB. :shrug:

I have to figure out stil what the FR Borla touring dB rates are...

Nobody in Europe (especially the dealer ) knows anything about 20"...
I guess there are plenty of nice wheels avalaible in Europe with a little bit less transport costs...:cheers: (meaning the Mustang ones are not ideal to transport)

I am sure you are right. Only issue in Germany is the TUV papers.....asked one place today and they had no idea...:doh:

Hmm I didn't realize that wheels also need to be specifically EU approved. I have a shop that resells American Muscle stuff not to far away, perhaps I should contact them to find out how this would work.

It seems to be the same rules across EU, however during my time living in the UK i had never heard of it!

If no paper, i would buy wheels from the US in a heartbeat!

I'm interested in the hood quicklift and in Borla touring exhaust, but I'll wait a little before changing anything.
