Ran around doing errands which I normally use the Fusion for. But it was 70+ degrees for top down driving. I had no choice. At least I parked far away from the soccer moms and old retired folks. Naturally I took the longest possible routes that made no sense.

It's back in the garage now. Later when the hood cools I'm going to mask off the center-line in preparation for my striping adventure tomorrow.

That's a reckless statement without knowing all of the facts.

Stripe failure. I spend a large part of the afternoon getting the hood center-line perfect....must have measured a dozen times.

Tried to stripe one side of the hood...bubbles and wrinkles and stretching up the wazoo. I followed the instructions, watched videos. Two attempts, no luck.

I have still have enough material to do the car, but it's on to Plan B. Gonna let a pro do it.

But I dig the silver on black.

That's a bummer. I hope you get everything straightened out.

I did my stripes myself. I got the backing too wet when I did the hood and when I wen to pull it off after squeegieing the water out the glue backing was stuck to the stripes. I ripped them off and did it again.......the 5th beer at that point had nothing to do with the error. I swear it didn't. 52 pieces in all though. It's about to be pulled off and redone due to the weather here in Europe taking its toll on them.

You know even if it is clean and installed correctly it's possible that the sensor is bad. I may be wrong in my thinking but it seems more likely to be a mechanical issue than the tune.

Was the tune ever working with the new setup? Did you contact AM or Bama yet? Surely they must have some ideas.

Well i pulled my sensor out and it'll actually pop up on the tuner as airflow sensor malfunction. But I did contact them, and they wanted me data log it and send them a email. That's how they left it. Wait 5-7 days.

I put my OE hood back on my 12 BOSS 302 yesterday. Boxed up and stored away my Tiger Racing hood. Will probably sell it at some point down the road.
My problem is im a part hoarder......

Installed my new GT500 spoiler today from American Muscle. It's just bolted on for now, no adhesive. I have a tentative appointment tomorrow for stripes and I'll remove it and have the installer do it seperately. That way he can run a continuous stripe over the deck lid and not have to splice or make extra cuts.

Can't wait for the stripes....with the new spoiler I think it's gonna look badass.

I spoke to Larry, the installer you recommended. Looks like tommorow...while I wait. He figures it'll take around 2 hours. It look me that friggin' long the other night just to measure and perfectly mask off my hood center-line. But after 2 failed bubbled and wrinkled attempts I cried uncle.

Stripe installation, as it turns out, is above my pay grade.

Oh, cool. He'll do a great job and you won't be disappointed. He did my friend's car too. I look forward to seeing it when it's all done.
