I saw this on their Facebook page. They did a fantastic job.

Single I believe, I think it looks like two because it have to leave space for the drive line and exhaust.

IMO there's too much wheel gap in this picture, but from a distance it looks good. Would look better with some lowering, but I have no room to talk with the stock brembo set up in place. I plan on a small drop...just enough to close the gap but keep it practical. Are your wheels 19 or 20"?

I think the ride height is fine, but the tires look too small for the wheels/car. The offset looks a little too high too...

I think it is a track pack car. They come with the finned diff cover and the painted housing. Looks like the Brembo wheels on there.

Edit: duh - I just read his sig - TP car

Funny thing is it is lowered. Steeda ultralights on Koni yellows. Wheels are 20's but with a 30 series tire on the rear. Offset is flush it just looks like its not due to the concave. I could tuck the wheels no prob if the car was lower. Looks like coilovers may be in my future.

Wouldn't 35 series tires accomplish the same thing and still fall within an acceptable diameter? I'm ignorant when it comes to wheel/tire sizes.

Either way its still a great looking car!

I see FORD Finally got a clue and started painting the rear axle instead of shipping these cars with rust ones!! Just wish they made that decision back in 2012 when I got mine!

I had mine over my head putting on the exhaust pretty early on so I painted mine myself. They should paint all of them
