Glad to see sense returning. :like: I will argue that changing the clutch spring DOES help—not the car, but the driver. It can make the engagement point easier to feel out, I felt it came on way too fast with the OEM spring. I do like the idea posed by @boB (you just got all kinds of cool stuff...

...Good for you? Again, your other mustang, whatever make/model it is and your 2017 are two completely different cars, with different engines and transmissions. If you've owned so many over the years as claimed, I'd expect you'd understand that they do not all shift, release, or drive the same...

You sure there's no damage to the lip? It looks to me like that lower grille is shattered on the drivers' side. Might be light reflecting in at the edges, but also looks separated form the painted strip at the bottom. Definitely head to a competent shop that deals in framework. And as Red said...

Clutch... switch? Software?? Programming??? Tuning???? Are we forgetting the definition of a manual transmission? If we are, a reminder: it's right there in the name. It is a powerful engine, with a lot of torque behind it. It is a manual transmission that engages and disengages at your...

It's probably the same material. It at least FEELS cardboardy.:crackup: The claim I usually see is that, in the event of an engine fire it'll fall down and smother flames which... no. No it will not.

Noise reduction, a bit of prettying up—same as the engine cover on the '18+. Anyone who comments about it being fire retardant—while that'd be nice, is also very false. (Seriously—it feels lije it's made of compressed cardboard and cheesecloth. How'd that rumor start???)

I'll do you one better and report back immediately :like: Unfortunately, I don't have the luxury of a wholly enclosed garage, so my ride sees plenty of rain. No issues. Mind that it all makes it down to the engine anyway, cover or not; that insulation's got a big gaping hole in it too. It also...

2,200 miles, from Atlanta Georgia to Texas and back. Plenty comfortable.

I removed mine a few months back; haven't had any issues. Go for it.

He can drive whatever he'd like; don't go building any more engines though.

To use a portion of your spouse's real name with an allegedly documented and reported on criminal record, no less.

True—I suppose it falls under conspiring to commit a crime. Not sure. OP might do well to look into a lawyer in the wake of this. Awfully brazen to use your own name for it.

Well, this thread took quite the turn. Correct me if I'm wrong, but is it not quite the crime to impersonate an officer? That of course, includes detectives? Methinks this "Detective Sanders" should rethink her plans.

And there's nothing wrong with that. :like: It needs to be said, lest someone get the idea in their head that they can just widen their stock wheels to hit the track instead of shelling out for a whole new set. As you say, failure is catastrophic at 130mph—and more...

...Am I crazy, or was this thread, as well as Endo's comment, posted two whole years ago, and only just now being necro'd by the OP? OP, you a time traveller? :giggle:

I get the initial skepticism—I do, 'cause I had it as well, but in researching I've found naught but standout reviews for Weldcraft, and absolutely nothing in the way of... we'll call them spectacular decompressions. :giggle: Even from here. The worst that could be said, as detailed in that...

I'll echo others, don't get your heart set on selling it yet. Find a good body shop, let them do their thing. I'd the same thoughts when mine took a hit, with the same notions of "it's never the same," but since getting it back from a good (albeit slow...) shop and going for a nice, long...

Charge your phone first. :giggle: GT350s, and I believe 500s as well have gunmetal accents for all the places "chrome" is present in base GTs. eBay is probably your best bet if there is any.

That they do—and that our cars do. At like 1/8" of movement, though, it really isn't a huge deal. They told me not to roll them down for at least 48 hours, and nothing more. They most definitely did not yank a fuse and tell me to put it back in in a couple days. I think you may be overthinking...

Going on 2 years, no issues with tint peeling here. Admittedly I can't wholly recall, but I don't remember doing anything special for the windows. Just told not to roll em down. Installer may have done the heat gun trick Soulja mentioned. It's been long enough I can't recall. :giggle:
