A couple pics of the flares in progress. We were able to get them off without breaking any clips.







After the rock guard and flat black, we added 2 coats of semi gloss. This helped to keep a more "black" look, vs gray. It wil also make them a little easier to clean.


BEFORE



AFTER - These match the running boards perfectly and will match the Wicked Performance Shop bumpers perfectly.





Next on the list was to install an Airaid CAI and Lund tune. A nice care package from our partners at EVO arrived just in time!







CAI Install was simple and straight forward. It really was as simple as popping the top lid to the stock airbox, removing the mass air sensor, and then loosening a couple clamps to pull the intake tube.

The Airaid CAI is nice as it utilizes the bottom portion of the stock air box. The factory air box utilizes fresh outside air, and the Airaid kit contiues to take advantage of that.

Install was completed in less than 15 minutes from start to finish.



Stock ECU downloading and custom tune uploading!



As with most of Ford's drive by wire vehicles. The throttle response is noticeable from the first touch of the pedal. Ford softens up the throttle response to cater to the "average" person, not the enthusiast.

With the snow on the ground, we were not able to take advantage of the new found power. Shifts are noticeably more crisp though, and we will be hitting the dyno soon.

Looks good man, but those amber side reflectors in the mirrors and headlights are sticking out like sore thumbs.
