Yesterday, I installed a Saleen decklid panel on Maggie. I got an amazing deal I couldn’t pass up. Including purchasing the parts, trim removal plastic tools and some socket sizes and shipping from American Muscle, I only spent $70) I love how it transformed the rear. It feels so good to challenge myself to install it myself and do it successfully. It was a lot of work but I pushed through. (fyi- I have cerebral palsy left hemiplegia)

Thank you!! I hadn't seen it either! I had debated a new decklid panel for a long time. But, shyed away from it because I didn't think I could handle the installation myself. But, with the price being so low and the need for a less scratch prone decklid (mine had so many scratches on it from daily use) I saw that one and always loved the Saleen look and thought it was time to bite the bullet, as they say.

I added some carbon fiber covers to my steering wheel

awesome! I like that look! I have alcantra looking covers on mine. They are fine and holding up well, but I wish I had seen these when I was looking for trim to replace the chipping stock "plastic-chrome"

Washed and stored for winter. Thinking of ordering a few things like rear upper control arms and long tube headers with cats. Added a Stainless works redline series catback with active before putting it away. Sounded nice but may upgrade the h pipe to a corsa double helix.

Are those new lights or are they just lens covers? They look great with that color. I think they may look good with EG as well.

Installed the Ford Performance toe to knuckle bearings. Install wasn't that bad at all. It was enjoyable working on the car. Don't feel a difference on the road. Got the bearings by using my ford points.

Yesterday - washed it and took it for a drive :

Turns out it might have been the last drive of the year - we headed into town this morning for the Remembrance Day service and they had salted the roads … :frown:
