  1. Your opinion on personalized license plates...

    Nice. I was thinking about suggesting "COOKIE" as in a short hand version / nick name they use for Cookie Monster. I didn't realize that Texas allows a graphic without consuming one of the 7 letters. Could have also made "COOKIE M" with that graphic. But I think you scored an awesome plate...
  2. Your opinion on personalized license plates...

    A few other options that start with "C" also come to mind...
  3. Your opinion on personalized license plates...

    Limit...not eliminate. Still plenty of ways it could go South. Could also try using an 'N' to kill the 'master' interpretation: CKMNSTR ...but still quite a bit of leeway. Dropping the 'K' for a space opens up a lot more reasons for the DMV to reject it: C MNSTR
  4. Your opinion on personalized license plates...

    Maybe dropping the space for a 'Y' could limit the ways it could go wrong: CKYMSTR The one I wanted is already taken in my state. There are a few alternatives that might be OK... but not sure it is worth giving up my randomly assigned but very close to something that would never get approved...
  5. Caliper paint color ideas

    Was it pretty easy to get a smooth shiny finish by brushing it on? I notice that they offer a disposable sprayer on their website, is it worth it?
  6. Caliper paint color ideas

    G2's website says that oversized calipers require 2 paint kits. While the ~2016 GT Premium doesn't have the oversized brakes that the performance package has, it does have calipers that are larger than many other vehicles. So my question for those that have used the G2 caliper paint kit on their...
  7. Jacking rails, yes or no?

    I have the BMR full length. They work great with jack stands, jack directly under the mirror and put a stand on both ends of the rail. Get some jack stands with the shallowest "V" or even flat topped. I put my car up on four stands with all four wheels off the ground for rotating the tires...
  8. Favorite ONE mod that you have done.

    Here they are installed... The perforation effect is a bit more dramatic than that of the seat centers. Perhaps the non-perforated option would go better with the solid leather.
  9. I hate the Pirelli P Zero Summer Only tires...

    I am loving my Pilot Sport A/S 3+. Significant (i.e. massive) performance improvement over the stock Pirellis. I still run the Blizzaks in freezing weather, but could probably get away with keeping the AS, at least until the snow sticks. The stock Pirellis on my car (which were labeled as All...
  10. Favorite ONE mod that you have done.

    I found these. They come in leather or perforated leather with the red stitching. From the photos they look like they could be a great match to the California Special seats.
  11. Favorite ONE mod that you have done.

    Holy crap! I need to get one of those seat belt cozies! Damn thing is just at the right angle to slice my nips off. I wonder if they come in black.
  12. Favorite ONE mod that you have done.

    I use mine to carry a spray bottle of quick detailer, microfiber towel (damn birds), an extra quart of oil, a packet of napkins/paper towels, a window scraper, and a few other odds and ends...
  13. Favorite ONE mod that you have done.

    Cargo net, trunk liner, and spare tire kit were included at the time of purchase... But my very first mod was to replace all the incandescent interior lights and the reverse light with the Diode Dynamics LED kit.
  14. Prepping new mustang GT for winter

    235/50R-18 It was worth it for me to get extra wheels so I just have to swap them out without remounting them. Found the cheapest ones that looked kind of like the factory ones.
  15. Prepping new mustang GT for winter

    +1 on 18" wheels being the minimum size. I have 18" wheels with Blizzak's on them for winter driving. There is almost zero clearance between the wheel and the calipers with the 18" wheels mounted. The Blizzak's are taller, skinnier and of course softer than my normal tires... It feels like...
  16. Home maintenance vs dealership

    After first oil change it came back with muddy towel swirls (even though they were instructed not to 'wash' it). Oil filter was loose and leaking. Interior work (head unit replacement and TSB for seat coolers) added a couple of deep scratches in the center console and another in the glove box...
  17. Favorite ONE mod that you have done.

    Yep, mine is the older 2016 GT (gen2) which used a different kit M-9603-M8A. Cheaper, but that won't help you. Also came with a rudimentary programmer (ProCal 2, I think).
  18. Favorite ONE mod that you have done.

    Sorry I didn't see your question until now... Yes that is the kit. I paid $675 (shipping included) from Levittown Ford back in 2017. Then a local speed shop did the install for about $150 (had to be an ASE Certified shop for warranty), but it is very easy to install yourself since the warranty...
  19. Favorite ONE mod that you have done.

    FRPP Power Pack 2. Much improved driveability. The additional 40 ft-lb of low-end torque really helps to close the performance gap between the low-end and the above 4K rpm "wild side". Also eliminated that brief hang between letting off the throttle and actually starting to engine brake...
  20. How to fix the OPT7 Arrows fluttering

    I squirted some dielectric grease into the contacts then covered the face with electrical tape then wrapped it with electrical tape around the plug (to capture the tails of the piece of tape that covers the front) and up the wire a bit. Although the "around the plug" part could be better with...
