What did you do to your UK S550 Mustang Today

[Benno2000]

Didn't know GT101 were offering this. Good to know! They look awesome, nice choice on the contrasting red

Thanks, have always wanted red calipers

Pretty sure GT101 will do anything - they’ve done everything on mine bar simple bits I’ve managed to do myself, the PP2 that I got KentMustang to do for Warranty purposes and the first service that TrustFord did for free. While it was in, they also sorted out some wiring for my switchback DRLs, nano-coated the wheel barrels while the wheels were off as well as taking one of the wheels to have puncture repaired that they had spotted.

Can’t fault them - and not to mention their facilities and also the decent cars that are always there to drool over

Finally finished my engine and coil covers - came out better than I expected, considering my automotive ‘skills’.............

So prefer those engine and coil covers to the ones on my 2019 :(


Anyone know if the older style fit on the new car ?

depends what you want mate if you want just white when I had mine done was just over 400 if you want sequential indicators and or the ability to have diff coloured tribars via an app I think it was 520 when he did mine the other year

Yep that’s about right

Recent mods, luggage hooks in the boot and a pony delete grille.

 

[pdavison]

That pony delete grill looks good, where was that from and would you mind letting know the cost?

 

[AB]

More details on those luggage hooks please.

Hi, it's a Bullitt front grille assembly, which I bought over the counter at my Ford dealer.
I had the chrome trim sprayed black, job's a good'un!

More details on those luggage hooks please.

Hi, a couple of bags of heavy shopping and with the way I sometimes drive the GT, that speaker grille was look vulnerable.
So I've fitted VAG saloon car, boot hooks. I know there's a special place in hell reserved for heretics such as me, but the hooks are very useful.
Obviously the hook assemblies require holes for the fixings, I set mine as follows.

Holes are 7.5mm x 7.5mm Square, at 110mm centres.
I could post part numbers if necessary, but would suggest exercising significant caution when making the holes, as behind that panel is a channel, might be a former for electrical harness.

It's a bit like the front parking sensors. Small details like these aren't going to break the bank of Ford, but it would seem the Ford Mustang program do not understand their U.K. market very well when it comes to small but useful touches like this.

Cheers. Lack of useful hooks in the boot is an annoyance.

i'm not sure the hooks are useful to me it looks like things will just swing around in the boot around corners potentially smacking into other bags/sides/top of boot etc disposing of the contents all over the boot probably busted up.

i think just stacking all the bags in one corner seems to work perfectly fine for me even with the way i drive.

Had a few bits arrive yesterday and had an hour spare today so cracked on firing a few bits.

first up was a Velossa tech big mouth.
Since supercharging the car and going stage 2 I have been getting higher IAT’s. I decided to refit the standard grille but swap the chrome badge for a gloss pony from Ford (£31)

I already had a US spec lower grille in the garage so fitted it as well.

The CAI kit from Edelbrock is a sealed box but there are no actual seals where the MAF housing is or where the lid Bolts down so I ordered some foam seal and made a gasket seal between the surfaces. Hoping there will be less (Or no) engine bay air Drawn in through the joints now.

Brake pads all round will be tomorrow’s job and it gives me a week to bed them in before next weeks speed event at Elvington airfield.

Also now have a genuine California special grille for sale if anyone is interested.

@CraigJ is that carbon trap in the airbox relevant for the charger? could get some more airflow by dumping it out (looks like it's just bolted on)?
