  1. Installed S650 style headlights on my S550, thoughts?

    Sorry not a big fan of the 650 styling, but whatever trips your trigger! Also not a fan of making styling changes to keep up, think it depreciates from the value of the car!
  2. Recaro Seats Wrinkles Am I to Picky?

    Thatā€™s totally unacceptable, I would not hesitate to take that seat back and have it replaced again to your satisfaction! As far as the guy above who posted the pic of the 19 Bullitt with the shredded side bolster, thatā€™s totally on him and the way he abuses the seat by getting in and out of the...
  3. Marti Auto Works Report

    Thanks for your replies, very helpful in tracking the history of this car. The dealership in Illinois told me it was a corporate car so that makes sense, and yeah itā€˜s well equipped with Recaro seats so that makes it kind of unique at least to me! Thanks again guys!
  4. Marti Auto Works Report

    I find that very interesting because according to the Marti Report the Order Type was a Company Lease Plan and the Dealer was Fordā€™s World Headquarters Garage in Dearborn Michigan. So I can only assume it was shipped to Cali and leased as when I bought it (8,700 miles) in Illinois the dealer...
  5. Marti Auto Works Report

    Just received the Marti Auto Works Delux Report for my 2018 Mustang GT Premium and under statistics it notes 441 ordered from this RC. Anyone know what the RC code means as I checked their FAQs and googled it but couldnā€˜t find a definition? Thanks!
  6. This guy insulted my wife and I over my car today

    We all get many more positive compliments on our cars and the exhaust notes than the comments a few envious morons like that make!
  7. Active exhaust

    Thatā€™s the whole concept of an active exhaust! Iā€™m also in the old guys club as will be 70 this Sept. and no hearing issues yet (knock on wood). Drive almost exclusively in track exhaust mode with an FP X-pipe for added volume. Love the sound ripping through 1st, 2nd and 3rd snug in the Recaro...
  8. If you could build it all over again?

    Nothing differently period! Bought my 18 GT Premium package with a manual, recaros, black trim, digital dash, and active exhaust in 2019 for $32,500 (MSRP sticker $49,000). Was a corporate car with 8,700 miles. Mods Iā€™ve done include K/N intake (didnā€™t want to void the warranty), Ford...
  9. X or H pipe???

    As many have said it all comes down to personal preference. After researching the side by side sound comparisons I decided to go with a Ford Performance XP for the horsepower gain. I have AE and do most of my driving in track mode exhaust and it simply sounds awesome, not to raspy when jumping...
  10. Stupid question of the day: how to remove engine cover to check oil level

    I just cut the side star war flaps off my cover and added the dress up kit and painted both myself. No issue getting the oil fill extension off. Everything is accessible now and looks much cleaner.
  11. Recaro vs. Stock Seats

    Yeah Iā€™m perplexed why they would offer power Recaros in Euro but donā€™t offer them here (and what is the added cost for power). I moved to FL from IL a couple of years ago and as I said not a daily driver so it was mothballed in the garage during the winter so heated seats werenā€™t an issue. Now...
  12. Recaro vs. Stock Seats

    Just throwing this out there, but bought my 2018 Mustang GT Premium used (8,700 miles) in 2019 as I always dreamed of getting an iconic muscle car as Iā€™m now 69 years old and love it, especially the manual trans. But had some reservations with the Recaroā€˜s. Iā€™ll preface this as it is not a...
  13. My new GT

    Congrats, beautiful car!! Glad you went with the man as a more dynamic rewarding driving experience (real cars donā€™t shift themselves). First two mods were a K/N intake and FP strut tower brace. Also replaced the clutch spring with the Steeda to lessen the push back, makes a difference. Set your...
  14. Resonator Delete on OEM Factory Exhaust

    No issues, had a Ford Performance X installed by a custom muffler shop. They didnā€™t have to drop the mufflers/tips down and I had them weld (rather than clamp) the back of the X while ensuring the tips were aligned. Awesome sound in track mode thru first 3 gears!!
  15. Ford Performance Engine Dress Up Kit

    Looking to get a Ford Performance Engine Dress Up Kit for my 2018 Ruby Red GT and want to paint them before install. Any suggestions on the color matches and brand of paint and does the paint need to be heat resistant? Thanks!

  17. Why did you buy an automatic? (and why I ordered a 6spd)

    68 YO and finally got my dream manual trans muscle car! Last vehicle I had with a manual was my 83 Chevy S10 Blazer. The shifting all came back to me like riding a bike, even got the heel/toe rev match down and just love the exhaust notes up and down. Retired and a joy to drive but agree with...
  18. Painting brake calipers, or...?

    I purchased 2 cans of Dupli-Color Black Gloss Caliper and 2 cans of Dupli-Color Engine Enamel Gloss Clear spray paint and had the local body shop paint them (front and back) for $250 and they look great!
