Thanks, Doogie,![Dunno](https://themustangsource.com/forums/images/smilies/dunno.gif)
Don't see enough difference between smoked, clear or o.e. for me to consider changing them. Might just be my taste, looks fine stock to me. Might change to smoked fog lights. Next purchase will likely be a nice wind screen. The good ones are still a little pricy for me. $400 for what they are is too much.

I started with clears and just switched them out for tinted. But as you stated, It does comes down to personal preference. I waited several years before investing in a CDC windscreen as the price was hard to accept, but after making the investment in '10 only regret was not doing it sooner. It definitely helps on colder days, but my wife likes the reduced wind even when it is warm. I actually waited until CJ Ponyparts was running a 20% off sale to pick up mine.

Finally located some MAG painted strut caps and installed them this morning. Yeah, those water spots need addressing as my bodyshop decided to wash my car when it was in their shop for some touch up on the new rear bumper.

Doug, THANKS for the heads up on the MAG strut covers. I never thought I would see those again and they look great. Your engine compartment looks awesome. I have stolen some of your idea's for sure.
Took this photo of my Alloy today. This is where it all started for Ford.

Well Bob, think we both have "shared" many ideas between our 2 cars. Now I can't wait to get the painted fuse cover and AM lights back from paint next week as I plan to mock up an idea for an aluminum intercooler tank while the fascia is removed.
