I personally like the stelthy look. I added some Ford blue letters to the mustang embossed areas of the shroud just this week. Added just a tad bit of blue color that goes with my valve covers and the blue hoses of the C&L intake.

Yeah, I hear ya..... and it's kinda hard to find something to finish the edges off nicely if you decide to trim the shroud.

Just a little over a week until my first trip to the track for the year, can't wait. I'm going with my car club on the 17th.

Did some side to side measuring tonight after lowering the car last weekend. It appears I need an adjustable PB. Looks like about 3/16 inch off center. Thinking about the BMR adjustable with poly ends.

I used a Steeda, it worked great. I'm sure the BMR will be great too.





Saw Lance driving around town today on someone else's wheels.

I would just use a BMFH on it to correct that stagger. Couple of good hits and it will be right there.

BMR unit is on order with Brenspeed. I was surprised they were cheaper than CJ Pony Parts this time.

Nice, sounds good Scott. How much is your car lowered? Just curious so that if I lower my car a little bit I will know what to expect. I know that the rearend shifts over a bit when lowered.

They say 1 1/4 inch lower in rear end and 1 inch lower in front with the Steeda sports.
