Just received and installed my brake fluid reservoir cover today (matte black). Absolutely perfect fit and construction--down to the notch cut to fit over the wiring bracket. Thanks, Matt!

Katzkin Leather Samples
Now that my new upholstery has been installed, I'd like to "pay it forward," by selling the Katzkin leather swatch sample set, which I purchased from a dealer, prior to choosing my interior color. There's no way to actually know how a particular Katzkin color is going to...
I got the impression from Benny, that the change/upgrade was made, beginning with some of the "late-build" 2016 GT's, and continuing into the 2017's, as many of the early-build 2016's were reported as having "rebound" issues. If it wasn't clear from my prior post(s), a combination of changing...
At the bottom of this post is a pic of the label from my new shocks. What follows, is a copy of the entire pm transcript of my convo with Benny at Levittown a couple of months ago, whom I consider to be an expert re parts for our cars:
Re: GT Performance Package Shocks...
Exactly right. I was having way too much "bounce" for my taste, with my 2016 EB (daily driver), and swapped the rear shocks out for the new GT pp shocks. I also trimmed the bumpstops 1/2", as was suggested to me by a very helpful board member here, BmacIL (Bruce), who was kind enough to share...
2016 Rear Shock Revision
There is indeed a 2016 revision in the rear shocks for the GT with performance package. I recently ordered a pair, to upgrade my EB pp suspension.
The new rear shock part number is: FR3Z-18125-X.
I ordered from Levittown, after consulting with Benny. As I recall, they...
Love my new Katzkinz!!
Just got my new Katzkinz installed. Decided to go with the "Ice Grey" color, graphite stitching and perforated insert (seat and back). They're a little darker than the pictures would suggest--a great color contrast with the graphite and black interior, and the Magnetic...
Thanks so much for responding. Two quick questions:
1. Are the comments set forth in parenthesis (such as "might want to include receipt, etc."), actually set forth in the form as such, or are those comments which you personally wrote and interjected?
2. So you emailed the info to a...
Can someone kindly post ("blank") copies of the form(s), required by Ford to be completed and submitted, following the installation of the tune and CAI, in order to secured the warranty? Much thanks.

Are you a certified mechanic?
I'm confused. I thought that Ford wouldn't issue the warranty, unless and until the installation was done by a certified installer, who filled out the paperwork?
If you watch the Rosen installation video, he specifically has you skip some of the screws, and cautions against tightening the remaining bezel screws, too tightly. If not done properly, the buttons can stick or not function at all. Good luck.
Thanks for your responses. Glad the cloth straps don't seem to bother anyone. It wasn't so much that they were cloth that concerned me--it was the non-matching color. Again, how do the straps attach at the top (inside)?
I've been thinking about taking the plunge on some Katzkinz (Grey), but I'm concerned about the seat belt straps. How do they attach to the seats (non-magnet end)? I know that new matching straps don't come with these sets. Doesn't retaining the cloth straps with the contrasting color...
Just chatted with FPP
Here's a transcript of the live online "chat" I just had with an FPP rep, regarding the EB "Calibration." I added the "bold" to some of the type for emphasis. The rest is verbatim. His name is "Mike," as well:
Please wait. An operator will be with you shortly.
