So what did you do to your SHO today!?

[SM105K]

Same

I blame stupidity and my clear hate of money.

 

[SHOCALL]

Same.

Washed mine today! It's sunny out but chilly in my area! The red metallic really shines!

Finally took the time to take a pic of the subtle changes I made to the front end...

Never been a fan of the front license plate holder, but I found a decent way to cover it and make it blend in I think.

Thats cool! I have the same grille except its ALL gloss black with the American flag in place of the ford oval. It darkens up the front end more!

Just remove it and ignore the holes.

If it's been drilled, I plug them with some little plastic plugs from the HD. Spray paint them to a close color and use to RTV to hold them in. Looks way better than the holes.

Nah leave em, ain't about looking good it's about going fast and them are speed holes, air-o-dine-amex, don't leave home without it 5% cashback at airport restaurants

Problem with leaving them is the edges of the paint are unprotected and eventually will lift.

I'm sleep deprived and thought it would be funny, I'm 100% for plugging them, I somehow lucked up and even though my green gem was sold in NY they were snowbirds and registered it in FL so I don't have the bracket or the holes. Couldn't imagine trying to hide plugs on that paint.

Next time I hit a deer, or more likely a deer hits me, I'll have the body shop not replace it lol

I knew you were kidding... Just mentioning what can happen with those "loose" edges.

 

[jmstalke]

Today my car got quieter... I am actually quite amazed at how much noise the "Ford Useless Engineering Dept Boost Loss Device" created.

 

[SM105K]

Make sure you hair spray both couplers and re-install.

 

[jmstalke]

Rave 4x Mega Hold to the rescue. I think the can my wife has is left over from the late 80s lol...

 

[Junkyard_Mad-Scientist]

Makes brake cleaner look like frebreeze. Spray liberally in a confined space

Just got my new center speaker cover from @Junkyard_Mad-Scientist installed. I put a little speaker foam around the edge to tighten it up a touch even though it really wasn't needed. Just made me feel better since I live on 2 miles of bumpy dirt road. Looks great!! Just need to figure out what finish im going to put on it.

Oh, more than enough height to fit my new JL Audio C2-350 speaker under it. Last piece of the upgraded sound system is f8nally in place too.

Im glad you like it! The foam is a great idea, the gap is there for thick wraps like leather and what not but I tried to keep it minimal. @802SHO Wrapped his some carbon fiber that came out nice. Endless options but I can't wait to see it.

I couldn't help myself though, I needed a phone holder and your idea for a mag mount stuck with me so I made one for my car lol. Not the cleanest wrap but I'm still perfecting that craft, overall it came out good, the embedded mag mount ended up working better than expected. Now I have a spot for my YouTube and forscan gages until I get some decent gauges.

 

[kryptto]

I love that idea, get an old cell phone and repurpose it for bluetooth guages...

 

[jmstalke]

I just got my SCT X4... thinking of finding a way to mount that there for the time being... at least until I get my tunes I want dialed in.
