Finally stopped putting off my rear 2013+ caliper/ rotor upgrade. Been running the 2013+ fronts for over a year now. Also prepped, por15'd and painted all 4 of them. New Bendix fleetlock pursuit pads all the way round. 140mph-0mph fade free stops with minimal pedal effort. My God the stopping power is amazing. Warm them up and they stop quicker. Can't say enough great things about this setup.

Megan coilovers installed with a new wheel bearing on the front driver side. Rides better than ever! Seems like the sho is maxed out until I get money (or even want to) go down the road of having a motor built. Pictures to come when I get her cleaned up.

2013 Taurus Police: 36,500 as of Today....INVESTIGATE what i Bought
Dusty and Dirty underneath Looks like been driven on a dirt road, Better than Rust
On the Rack, So PTU Fluid Change; Yikes Only 10 OZ came Out, a ton of Shavings
But at least it looked like Gear Oil. Will be installing Our own Custom Breather Fill
Rear Turbo Oil Pipe is leaking, will be looking @ that and inside the intercooler.
RDU Fluid Change, Oil Change and Trans Change Later Today...
Sorry for the upside down Pics, But that is how i am feeling right Now..
No Rust on the Underside, Car came from Tenn.. Tires are Miss Matched on the rear,
Spare Tire is Not even the same as the miss matched ones...
FRONT Grill is Cracked, Front Bumper is also Cracked. Bad Seal job on the Roof Holes.

Nope. Same mush box. Lol. But the pedal effort seems a bit less than the 2013+ boosters. But the 2k13+ boosters have less pedal travel and firmer/ better feel.

Alignment done, the shop said the stock camber bolts had enough in them to bring it into alignment without using the bigger ones I purchased. I'll take it!
Picture of the ride height... she is dirty... I will get some better ones when she is cleaned up.

You got her slitherin now...So You mind selling the bolts? How much for them shipped? Lol. I'm about almost -2° on one side in the rear. QuickLane said they would redo it for free if I got the bolts.StealBlueSho said:Alignment done, the shop said the stock camber bolts had enough in them to bring it into alignment without using the bigger ones I purchased.

Took the taillights off my '14 XSport, I was going to night shade them, but didn't like how it was turning out so I'm going to use some vinyl one way or the other. Haven't decided between tint film or a lamin-x. Any suggestions?
So, looking up all of that got me side-tracked into doing a vinyl wrap. Have any cool ideas to share? I'm kicking around something like this:
