It's supposed to be 47 here today. Probably Tuesday is my next chance to do anything to the car. I have my SHR climate control ***** to install, and it would be great to be able to install my BMR rear drive-shaft loop, I've had that sitting in the back seat of the car all winter.

Pretty much done...... not the best pix, but you get the idea:







I have white "Supercharged" decals coming that I may opt to install on the sides of the scoop.

That really looks very nice Tom. I bet that Roush hood scoop was a bit*h! I need to look at it a few more times. Not completely sure I like the scoop yet. Maybe...Maybe not... Perhaps putting the SCer decals on the scoop and removing the stripes. That is the nice thing about vinyl. Did you have to cut that shape for the scoop or are they precut?? Put a heater in the garage tonight...it is supposed to go near freezing here.

Not sure I'm sold on the scoop yet either...... I'll wait till the decals get here and then decide what I want to do.

YOu can't see the seats? That's weird, in a different thread on this forum, some members can see them and others can't.

Anyway, they are the blue and black leather Roush seats.

I saw them in an earlier post the other day but I can't see anything in this last post.

Scoop looks good! Once you get those ''STD Motorsport'' decals on the side of the scoop! it will look perfect!...

Well guys, I did a 450 mile road trip in the Stang yesterday! on a new oil change Royal Purple HP 5w20 and a Ford Racing oil filter.. also added some of that redline bed wetter slime stuff to radiator coolant! it did back the temp gage off some! but I did notice that my mid pipes are rattling where they go over the PH bar brace!... So when I'm installing the Shaft and LCA's next week I'm going to need to figure out how to get my FRPP stingers to hang where I want and not have the mid pipes hit that brace....

When I first installed a set of Bassani mufflers last year, I had the same problem. I had moved the over-axle pipes to that the mufflers lined up, but then they would rub on decent sized bumps. All I did was go back and play with them and the mufflers some more, and got things to where they looked good and didn't rub; no problems since then even with the Borla over-axle pipes which aren't flattened like the stockers.

Yep, he hasn't been that social lately. But then again, Larry and Ben have been quiet too. Thank goodness we got Justin, Cody, and Chris to help us fill up the pages LOL!
