I bought my '15 Ruby Red 50th Anniversary Premium in June of '15 and I couldn't be happier. I looked at every other color and as far as sheer visual impact none of them even come close to a clean, waxed Ruby Red finish. I like the color more every time I see it. The first 2 things I did were to have a clear bra installed and added an oil separator. The oil separator is more than worth the price in light of the amount of oil that it stops from going into your intake and coating the inside of your intake and the backside of your valves at the very least. I dumped about 3 ounces of oil out after just 4,000 miles. Just imagine the inside of your engine after 50K with all of that oil mist being pumped into the intake. I use only full synthetic oil and I'd rather do everything possible to keep the inside of my engine as clean as possible for as long as possible.

Georgeous Stang, Lone Survivor. :cheers:

Here's a pic of my Ruby that I took this morning with the iPhone. The light was pretty good.

That picture looks exactly like my car except it appears that you have a slightly different rear spoiler.

Nice. Velgen VBM5s, right? I've got the VBM7s and really like them. :cheers:

Thanks, Yawnn. Here's an iPhone pic I took a couple of days ago. Ruby has got to be one of the best colors. :cheers:

Stock PP wheels, lowered on Steeda Ultralite springs and FRPP shocks/dampers.

Looking good, Mike. Did you notice much of a difference with the new shocks and dampers? :cheers:

Yes, indeed! The combination of Steeda Ultralites and FRPP dampers makes for a very nice ride. It's smoother and less "jittery" than the stock PP setup. Corners flat too!

Is it considered a progressive spring ?

This may be my next mod. I'm running Steeda's progressive springs, and I'm assuming I would get the same benefits from the dampers amd shocks.

Do you mind telling us how much the dampers and shocks set you back?

Thanks, Mike.

They are linear.

$511.50 from Autonation Ford.

Note: I highly recommend cutting down the bump stops on the front and rear in order to gain back some suspension travel, which also helps smooth out the ride a bit. See this thread for more information.
