What did you do to your S550 Mustang today?!

[frank s]

Received and filed the pink slip.

In celebration I went to ZL1 Addons' Poway, California shop and treated the Yellow car to:

Mustang 15-20 Deluxe Rock Guards × 1
Front & Rear Combo

Mustang 18-19 Performance Pack Wicker Bill × 1
Dark Tint (Entire Product is See Through)

Mustang 15-20 'GT500 Style' Splitter Winglet & Fender Extensions × 1
2016-2020 Mustang GT PP1

Mustang 18-19 GT/PP Premium Tow Hook × 1
RED / FRONT AND REAR / 1 TOW HOOK ONLY


ZL1 did the installations and gave me a very, very good price on the work. Looking at these pictures, you may have some difficulty picking out the new parts, what with them being either transparent (wickerbill) or black (rock guards, fender extensions). The front tow hook is red and obvious; the rear one is a receiver behind the license plate which i will have to remove to screw in the hook, if and when I get to the track.

I'm mostly very pleased with the additions; might take a while to get used to the 'GT500 Style' thingy. Since the "Wicker Bill" is on my car, and is now mine, I'll refer to it as "The Gurney Flap", its proper name.

Took a road trip to pigeon forge and Gatlinburg in Tennessee. I live in Tennessee and we made plane=s to go there and take mu mustang. Had a lil fun going through wears valley. Twisty road through through the mountains. I'd intentionally lag behind the cars in front then once they had a lil distance I'd close the gap quickly. Had a lil tunnel fun too on way back from gatlinburgh also. I was side by side with some guy and he back off near the end enough and I made. quick lane change and let them all hear my exhaust in the tunnel.

Nice! Heading there in March 2020 for Ponies in the Smokies. Did you get a chance to run Tail of the Dragon while you were there? It's about 1.5 hour drive from downtown Pigeon Forge to ToD.

Cleaned the air filter and installed Wolo Bad Boy air horn and Shelby turn signal/fog lights. Everything works as it should, but I hear the "hyper-blink" when I use the turn signals, even though the lights are flashing normally. The clicking has a sort of syncopated rhythm that makes me think my pony is galloping. I haven't found a way to make it sound normal, so I may just live with it. Depends on whether or not it gets annoying in the long run.

Forscan has an option for it if you decide to address it that way, or you can add in resistors. Only thing I'm not sure of then is whether you'll get the hyper blink later on if the bulb actually does go out.

I live 30 minutes from the dragon... I can run it anytime so it's not high on my list of places to go.

In the process of updating her 4" audio to the 8" system with Navigation.

Ordered a couple cheap items off ebay. Gloss black gt350 track pack style spoiler and a carbon fiber decklid panel. Spoiler was 68 bucks and decklid panel was 133. I doubt the decklid panel is real CF even though they say it is. I will see how they look and update after installation. The spoiler I bet is the exact same thing American Muscle sells for 150 bucks. Also ordered anchor room side market tint.

Installed some “used” floor mats I bought off of eBay. All 4 mats, Lloyd with 5.0 on the front ones. These are the really plush mats and I got them for just under $75 shipped to my door. I also installed some sun visor nanny warning label covers. The visors look so much better.

That’s a great find on the mats and they look to be in great shape.

the sun visor warning label covers are a great idea. just bought some, never thought about it before that post

Put it on the QuickJack for annual underside inspection and easier cleaning wheels and tires while off the ground.

Not sure QuickJack earns its name but I bought it for safety reasons more than speed. Of course I don't help the speed by forgetting best practices I figured out and adding new obstacles since last time.

I keep the QuickJack sides in the middle of a bay. That part helps quick; just reach under, grab them and pull them out under the jacking rails. But last time I decided to leave the blocks in front and behind the Quickjack. Just an inch too far to reach. Didn't want to start the car and warm things up (already 90s in the garage), so had to find something to push the blocks out the far side. Forgot to put the blocks in BEFORE putting QJ under jacking rails so had to push them farther in to get the extra 1/2 inch clearnce. Then realign the QJ under the rails. But I had forgot the hoses are not so easy to couple in that position so had to pull the front of the QJ sides from beneath the car which meant re-aligning them under the jacking rails AGAIN.

If this is from getting old, I should have stayed young.

Got some vinyls made today, I saw some on roush but roush was just a giant sticker, posting a pic of the roush one. Took to vinyl shop and made me some sick high quality ones. Love how they turned out.!!!

The black car has the roush decal.

I contacted roush to sell me a set and they refused ): so had them made instead. So happy

the passenger close up one stripe kinda got bent w little installing but didn’t see a reason to put another one on. Install user error it’s the 3rd one down. So minimal.

Lug nuts and a Tekton TQ wrench for my birthday
The OEM lugs got shredded when I had new tires put on.


I hate when other people work on my car

Steeda rear sway bar, end links, and a Borla S-type exhaust with their resonated h-pipe. All went easily! Though the wife came out and said the garage looked like my car had exploded...
Exhaust sounds great now, similar to the bare h-pipe but much quieter at the Quiet and Normal active exhaust levels.
