What did you do to your S550 Mustang today?!

[FreePenguin]

Just vacuumed and cleaned it up. Here’s better photos, there’s a slight wrinkle in bottom right, I did it alone oh well. I had it stretched out and everything just had small one apparently. I can always re do it one day.

2 bolts, and it pops out. Brackets stay on it, I’m happy thouth.

Gonna put a little self adhesive felt over the metal on back of the wall, to prevent metal noise if something was to bump it.

Just noticed I have a bump under carpet on the right of sub. Must have something under the carpet Gonna have to look later.

Edit, nothing under it that’s wrong. Just a weird caulk stuff for trunk seam there.

Installed the ford racing carbon fiber shift knob. First impressions - it’s pretty slick, literally. It’s lighter than stock and It feels a little more notchy. I only drove it for 30 mins so too early to tell. Looks great though.

that looks pretty nice. i had a weighted shift knob on my 2012 and it was nice at first, but i got tired of having no feel and ended up switching to the much lighter black ford racing knob and liked that a lot better

Installed the PP rear toe links and firewall extension. Car feels way more planted in the back now.

How is it temperature wise? Does it got hot? I've got am aftermarket ine I bought from another member here, and I love it. Except it gets blistering hot in the summer and ice cold in the winter. Looking for a better solution.

I installed the Redline hood strut and cleaned the floor mats.

Finally installed the Scott Drake decklid. First one came damaged, second one was lost in transit, third time was a charm. There was a VERY tiny chip missing in the top left corner, but it was so miniscule that I just said fuck it and did the install. Cleaned up the back nicely and has a great curvature in the design...

How hard was the install? Any issues?

Ignored pitiful whimpering from the garaged car. It is sniveling about a lack of attention to:

Finishing installation of the Steeda hood props, now that the weird nut and bolt are on hand (Thank yous to TJ and Matt)
Starting installation of Hide-A-Plate machinery
Making final decisions:
· Black (original) strut brace, or silver (GT)
· Gloss Black, Chrome, or Fluorescent orange "EB" badges on fenders, rear panel and/or strut brace
· Clean, clay-bar, polish, wax, seal wheel surfaces
· Replace standard lug nuts with black open-end nuts with screw-in dress-up plugs
· Blue, gold, reflective or fluorescent orange dress-up plugs?
· Finalize stripe configuration and color for "pit", hood, trunk lid, rear panel
· Remove Automotive Authority spare tire and modify fitment for easier access
· Design and install a simple hook under the center of the trunk lid opening upper edge (keeps grocery bags from tipping during transit)
· Do a glare reduction as in the previous car (GT coupe), even more necessary in the convertible with the top down*
· Cover sunshade warning stickers (plain surface or chalk-board capable?)
· Struggle with FordPass© or forget it
· "Lip spoiler" on trunk in "wing" position, or no?
· Dash mat: yea or nay?
· Swap-in dual horns
· Add small Terlingua Racing Team and Team Shelby badges to rear of trunk lid?
· Location for Terlingua Racing Team small stickers?
·

MTK, as they say...

*Don't drive wearing a bright-color shirt in high-noon sun and top down, if you want to be able to see close to normally.

· Dash mat: yea or nay?

yes but get the 'terry' version or a dark color. I have the 'suede' in a light gray and tan, and they reflect something fierce in the windshield.

Pulled it out of the garage so I could clean my garage. Dusted it off and drove it 7 miles, now has 115 miles on the clock. My 135i is feeling a little jealous.
