Thanks Paul... I'll be more than happy to contribute to such an ingenious thread...!!!!!

I'll be glad to share the family album starting with it's birth announcement which I posted last August:

Such a proud moment... I still tear up!

Just delivered... needs its butt spanked so those lungs can start to wail.

At its new home...... all of the plastic is still on the car including the seats which made for a noisy ride home with the windows down.

• "Why were the windows down Dave?"
• "Uhhh... cuz the exhaust is out there!

13 Glorious hours of paint correction and detailing later.... loved EVERY second of it!

• "WTF Dave, 13 hours and you still left that mark on the glass?"
• "I said paint correction... I still had not got to the glass, but good catch"

One week old and I had to get him circumcised... the resonators were coming off. I had to grow the huevos to let a stranger snip his little factory parts off. Boy did he make some noise after that Out-Patient surgery.

Photo time...

Is it me, or does this just have a pissed off looking face...?????

Money Shot!

Q: Let me ask you this Dave, how does the Ford Performance Blue look next to the Lightning Blue?
A: Wow... great question!
Q: Of course it is... just give me an answer.
A: Looks like this:

Sadly, I still like the Lightning Blue a little better............. but NO COMPLAINTS with this machine and it's addictive vehicular exhaust crack.

Detailing the interior and getting ready to add "Big Worm Graphix" side stripes:

Side stripes prior to application........... a tad bit excited to begin this adventure...!!!

Love it Bro.

Stripes are on...

I was impressed with the packaging and the detailed vehicle specific instructions... but the stripes are not the same width. The lower stripe in the front fender measured 1-31/64" and the lower stripe on the door measured 1-3/8". That's almost 1/8" difference. I did my best to get them looking lined up.
I am going to reach out to Big Worm Graphix and see if I can get a replacement right front fender set. The stripe width on the other panels are different, but not a much as the right front.

Installation was easy.
