New Boss 302S wheel. I like the colour, could go well with my KB Boss.
Boss 302S Wheel legal for NASA American Iron Class
18" x 9.5" size
Fits front and rear (requires 0.25" spacer at front to clear race brakes)
5/8" wheel studs required
5-lug, 4.5" bolt circle
7.2" backspacing

EDIT: I guess the one disadvantage I see is that they are 18x9.5 as opposed to the other BBS wheels which are 18x10. My GT500 wheels are already 18x9.5. Curious to see what these weigh once FRPP updates that on their website. If they are still ~20lbs, I think I'm better off buying the 18x10.

Wow those are awesome. I think this makes me glad that I never bought the other BBS wheels. I am definitely saving for these

Oh I did not see that they are only 9.5s. I can powder coat the 10s easy enough

Yeah, I'm thinking the same.
The only reason I can see to purchase these would be if you wanted to conform to American Iron rules and run 18x9.5.
Otherwise, I think the 18x10s are the way to go. The list price of the 18x10s even saves you some money too.

CR3Z 6362901 UA Racaro Boss 302 Seat Cover
Had my replaced at the dealer, the box just says cover so I do not know if it is the entire cover or just the seat bottom since that was all that was replaced on mine. The box was very big!

I just read the whole catalog, not really anything new, no air to oil cooler and the Boss Recaros are not even in there anymore. Guess we won't be able to buy them again this year. Think I'll look at a good Sparco seat.

Racaro Seat Cover
Did the bottom seat cover start to pull the threads up? That is what mine is doing.

Hi Jim,
If you are interested in a oil cooler I would suggest you check out the one that Kendal from Cool Tech LLC is coming out with. It's an air to oil cooler and has a thermostatic valve for fast warm up. If you realy want the one from the Boss 302 I would be willing to sell you the one from my Laguna Seca that has 2K miles on it when I get the one from Cool Tech.

Am I the only person that would like to see the 2013 Boss insert be made for the 2012? Not the GT500 snout shroud. Just the grille insert with the hex pattern and removable lens caps! Are you listening Ford?

I just got the following link sent to me from Buyfordracing.com today.
http://www.buyfordracing.com/2012-20...e-exhaust-kit/
Some nice hardware. But when I study each piece, taking into the consideration of individual part pricing vs the three main components (along with factory OEM economies of scale) I can't help but think even the $699 deal is about $100 too high.
Maybe I'm off, but I have this sense that Ford Parts and Service influenced the pricing schedule via FRPP for these parts.
