Last few cool pictures, taking the nose and tail off was exciting really. My wife ran away when I 'popped' the quick releases off, she couldn't stand it lol.

I took off the Roush, because well, it looks pretty, but under air load I just didn't like how much it deflects. Its so loose feeling when you move it around too. The Boss stuff is solid and mounted firmly.

Also they give you new clips to install the Roush spiltter, and the are not big enough. The original clips support the load on the lower fascia, the smaller clips allow the lower fascia mounting locations to deform.

If you saw the thread on a few of the forums one of the users of the Roush splitter had his fail and rip off. After looking mine over a few more high speed runs and mine was on its way to failing.

I bought everything from www.tousleyfordparts.com (http://parts.autonationfordwhitebearlake.com/), great guys out there, and the best prices on Ford Racing Parts.

I feel much better with true Ford parts on my car, even if it did cost a bit more.

"Look honey, I bought $2000 in plastic, on plastic, isn't it neat!" My wife > Shes a red head too! lol

2013-2014 M-16601-MBKIT Boss Splitter Kit
2013-2014 M-16601-MBA Laguna Seca Front Splitter

I bought the kits from www.tousleyfordparts.com

The lower grill is different in the MBKIT package then the production grill. That grill is about $500 for the LS version. For the production version is only about $240 or so. That part alone is one reason the kit costs so much.

If someone has no intention ever putting on the LS splitter then this kit from LMR is the parts with some hardware for alot less.
http://www.latemodelrestoration.com/...in-Spoiler-Kit
You're paying LMR for making a kit and giving you hardware, and free shipping, in the end is about 40-50$ more then if you source the parts yourself, its pretty good deal really. I couldn't find the correct hardware, and asking a dealer about hardware they look at me like I have lobsters coming out of me ears.

The Boss rear valance is a kit also. DR3Z-17F828-BA About $120 or so, this is the dealer package that includes hardware. And you WILL need the white D clips lol, that's in the hardware package.

Big boxes, free shipping for Ford Racing Parts orders over $1650.

New wheels. PZeros. And they are just wide enough to fit on a 9" rim.
