What did you do to your S550 Mustang today?!

[Blufc3s]

I put Loudmouth 2 axlebacks on today. They are a bit louder than stock, which is what I was looking for.
The only issue is that the tips don’t align the same on each side. It’s not really noticeable unless you’re looking for it. I didn’t even notice if the OEMs aligned properly.

I ordered Velgen wheel & Tire package from LMR.

Called around to tint shops to get an idea of pricing for tint on the sides and rear. $175 for regular tint and $275 for ceramic. I'll be going with ceramic. Can't decide between 25% and 35%. 25% is the legal limit here but it might be too dark at night for me.

I spent a day adjusting to get mine lined up. Use a jack and some wood blocks to hold the exhaust up while you adjust the clamp. I'd recommend using an impact gun to tighten everything down. Make sure when you do tighten them, you torque the hell out of them. Otherwise, one side or the other will work itself out of alignment several months after the install. Ask me how I know.

Thanks, I’ll give it a try.

y do u need splash guards?

After I put the new wheels and tires, 19 x 10 with 285s in front and 19 x 11 with 325s in rear, the rear have about a half in of poke. Both front and rear now throw quite a bit of water, and probably other road debris up the fenders / quarter panels.

Just trying to keep in as nice as possible for as long as possible.

And in the colder part of the country, you get salt and gravel in the winter

I do my best to keep it tucked away during the salty period of the year!

$275 for ceramic?! Must be nice. I was quoted $499. Regular tint $140-$150 with a groupon.

That is where I ordered mine. An excellent company to deal with. You are going to love the wheels. Which setup did you order, sizes?

Installed Red Line hood struts that I had bought for my 2019

Wrapped my steering wheel trim in the forged carbon fiber that @psoto13 posted about using previously. Long term plan is probably going to involve wrapping all the dash trim similar to how he did, love the way it looks on just the wheel trim so far - hopefully it holds up okay given that it was my first wrap job!

If you look closely you might also notice something else a little new for my 2017 V6

You missed it, was that I had my headlights on!

Planning on doing the same thing this weekend but with black brushed aluminum wrap. It will also be my first time trying to wrap something. Any advice you can offer? I'm mainly concerned with the bottom steering wheel trim. Not sure how I'm going to do this piece yet.

-Thanks
