FLIP-4-SHO Posted April 8, 2012 Report Share Posted April 8, 2012 My son did a great job. Thanks Tim! And a rear shot for good measure. Ya maybe wheel spacers till the tires wear out and I can afford the new wider rims and tires. Still kinda like these alot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FLIP-4-SHO Posted April 8, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 8, 2012 I wish it looked that nice. Well maybe close someday.... I do not have as many resources as you do and or as much imagination you, as to what to do. All I can do is copy from the best in this forum. Great Ideas guys keep um coming.

mjhpadi Posted April 8, 2012 Report Share Posted April 8, 2012 Looks great, now you need to do the trunk mod! Or copy Mike's-he moved the SHO Ecoboost emblem to the middle of the trunk under the Taurus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FLIP-4-SHO Posted April 8, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 8, 2012 BWAHAHAHAHAHA! Tim and I were just sayin that's next! That's funny you should say that. Just need the heat gun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bpd1151 Posted April 8, 2012 Report Share Posted April 8, 2012 I can't remember if I did a "How-To" on that, or not.... My memory escapes me at times.... *sigh* Sent from my DROID3 using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mjhpadi Posted April 8, 2012 Report Share Posted April 8, 2012 Don't need a heat gun, I removed the letters using monofilament and then cleaned the residue with bug and tar remover. Took a little bit of elbow grease but I didn't trust myself with a heat gun around the car....:RpS_wink: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MelC Posted April 8, 2012 Report Share Posted April 8, 2012 Very nice FLIP-4-SHO. Now it's easier for me to spot your SHO when I'm in the Orange County area. I need help from the community though... I have a service appointment at the dealer this Monday and I can not bring myself to take out my LMS tune and bring it back to stock. Whenever I pick up the SCT, I start sweating and it's not even hot outside. Mike - do you have anything in the "How-To" thread that takes care of this problem?...LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bpd1151 Posted April 8, 2012 Report Share Posted April 8, 2012 BWAHAHAHAHAHA!Tim and I were just sayin that's next! That's funny you should say that. Just need the heat gun. Well, turns out I did do a "How-To" on the trunk lid re-arrangement..... Mark reposted it earlier, but it was excised due to it having been a double post. Although his efforts certainly did not go unnoticed..... nor should my "How-To" for that matter. That being said, here you go: http://www.ecoboostownerforums.com/showthread.php?81-quot-How-To-quot-Rearrange-Your-Trunk-Lid-Badging-Emblems ......and MelC.... I do not have a "How-To" on either removing your LMS tune file, or the emotional distraught and/or anxiety, grief, loss, for having done so :Cry: :Cry: :Cry: Sorry bro :couch2: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EcoBrick Bob Posted April 8, 2012 Report Share Posted April 8, 2012 How big a spacer are you thinking of? Anything over 3 mm requires longer lug bolts to be completely safe. Stock wheel is 38 offset. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FLIP-4-SHO Posted April 8, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 8, 2012 I am going with 24-25mm and will have studs in them for the back. 13mm up front with new studs pressed in. I will probably make these in my shop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whenever I pick up the SCT, I start sweating and it's not even hot outside. Mike - do you have anything in the "How-To" thread that takes care of this problem?...LOL I just returned mine to stock. Not hard at all using an SCT Tuner. You do it just like installing a new tune, except you keep going to the "Return to Stock" option, and then hit select. Have key on, but car off. And when it's done it's memory thing follow the instructions on the screen (hit select - again). Takes about the same amount of time as loading a tune file. When done, you turn off car and follow screen instructions. Mine said "Stock Tune successfully loaded". If you get any comments regarding possibly having flashed the ECM... you need to say that the battery ran completely down one night, or make up some other excuse for having unhooked the battery cables, which will cause the same marking on the ECM.

larrylu Posted April 26, 2012 Report Share Posted April 26, 2012 Love your twin turbo sticker. That's a mod I'd love to add to mine. Did you buy the sticker or did your son have to custom make it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Firstcontact1977 Posted May 4, 2012 Report Share Posted May 4, 2012 FC who did your side stripes? I really like. I ordered the SHO graphic (bottom trim) and rear panel from Ford Custom Graphics. They use 3M products. Then I had a local installer put them on in Alexandria, VA. http://fordcustomgraphics.com/choose.php?carType=taurus There a little expensive, but they maintain your warranty. The dealer didn't want to even touch the install (for fear they would mess up the graphic), so I went with their local 3M installer, which meant if they messed up - it was covered. Hope this helps!

SHO U UP Posted May 11, 2012 Report Share Posted May 11, 2012 I have spacers on mine and it looks a thousand times better. 1" up front, 1 1/2" in the rear. Makes the stance so much more admirable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mhenne4 Posted May 11, 2012 Report Share Posted May 11, 2012 Where did you get the spacers? Were they hard to install? How much were they? I do like the new stance. This just might be my next mod. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
