What did you do to your S550 Mustang today?!

[fast306stang]

Washed, clay'd, washed, dried, then applied Adam's UV Ceramic Spray Coating. I don't remember who all recommended this stuff (I think in this thread) but so far it's really awesome.
Everything done by hand, I'd say 90% of the water spots and imperfections I could see before are gone. It isn't cured yet, but it doesn't seem to be the "slickest" product I've used; however it's probably the smoothest if that makes sense.

Does anyone use any other coating or spray over this? I have Gtechniq C2V3 that I like a lot and some McKees paint sealer that I like a lot also.

I just came back off of a Detachment (out of towner for the military)... Been gone all week. Had to leave my car at the hangar parking lot. Oh the joy of hitting the auto start and hearing that sweet sound of HORSE POWA!!! Then literally and i kid you not, proceeded to wash my car in the parking lot cuz i did NOT want to drive it anywhere with all the baked on pollen all over it.

Well, dug the S550 out of storage since November. This week I’ve changed the oil and filter, replaced my OEM PP1 wheels with Mach1 wheels, and put on the coil covers I painted over the winter.
I’ve been driving the New Edge on nice days for the last 2-3 weeks and I’d forgotten how much better in every way the 2015 GT PP1 is. Makes me feel like I’m 75 again!

Did you also fade all the sound to the front?

Yeah I did, and slightly towards me. Any way I balance or fade, it still sucks. I was always a stickler for clear, rich audio.

Fitted my Steed strut brace today. The instructions left a lot to be desired (especially for Euro spec GT) they could have been written clearer and more succinct. And there is no need to remove the battery cable, it fits under just fine. Not sure why they tell you to do that.

I do have a question about the tightening down process if anyone can help.

Steeda say 35lbft. So I did a little bit more (45lbft lowest my torque wrench can go) on the outer most nuts, perfectly fine (although the bolts just fit. I would have been happier with more thread showing). However, the inner most nuts just keep tightening down due to the gap underneath. In the end I stopped tightening because the washers were starting to dig in to the strut brace. The instructions make no mention about what to do here. They can't be set to 35lbft as the torque wrench just keeps on going and going.

Here is what I mean about the inner most nuts / washers.

Thanks.
