Nice detail, what color is the car?
Lightning blue. Used VHT spray and clear. I sanded down the surface first and taped off all the silver so it looks like they are powder coated.

Last night, but installed done gloss black 5.0 emblems. Crappy garage pic doesn't do it justice. Looks soooo much better in person than the chrome.

Minor detail, but those are the 11-14 style 5.0 badges. Looks fine regardless though.

2017 White Platinum Premium GT
Decided to dip a toe into the detailing waters and ordered some tools, this arrived at my door yesterday. 6" DA polisher with 5" and 3" backing plates and pads.

First time doing a machine wax, other than slinging some wax around it went pretty well. Much easier than applying by hand. Using a 3" pad I applied a new coat of Collinite 845. Big fan of 845, it produces a nice shine, it's durable and beads water like crazy. Went all crazy and waxed the front and back glass, too.

For those who have never seen the 2017 White Platinum Metallic paint up close and personal. It has an iridescent sparkly look in the right light.

Good eye, you are correct. Don't know why, kinda like the shape better.

Put a vented oil cap on it. Haven't had a chance to test it yet.

Last night put on spare wheels plan to use for fall / winter. Bought used from local guy and had to try them out, AMR’s with Mich AS3’s. Also had to have an excuse to try out my new Dewalt impact wrench, HD has a great deal on these, wrench for 199 and free charger and battery which are normally 119.

Installed the JMS pedalmax on the Shelby.

Went for a test drive and man does this thing work. I have it set to 100% for right now. I'm going to try wet mode in the morning to make sure the throttle is still dulled (rains here in Florida all the time). So it would be nice to retain that.

If it's too much for wet mode I'll drop the intensity to 60%.

Couldn't be happier with it.

Ford performance oil separator comes tomorrow!
