Jackman5000 Posted May 6, 2014 Report Share Posted May 6, 2014 Last week I put nitto terra grapplers on the factory 20s. Awd I'm sure many wouldn't like it but I dig it. Yakima rack on top. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WWWPerfA_ZN0W Posted May 6, 2014 Author Report Share Posted May 6, 2014 (edited) Hate to have body work done, too many things to watch out for! The Terra Grapplers work well on the F150s also, it seems. Keep us updated on how they perform ... traction, mpg, etc. And post pics after the Edge is looking buff again Edited May 6, 2014 by WWWPerfA_ZN0W Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WWWPerfA_ZN0W Posted May 9, 2014 Author Report Share Posted May 9, 2014 Got a chance to work the new brakes in heavy stop&go traffic. Never gave me a reason to doubt they will be there as & when needed. The downside is now my older car's brakes seem to work much more slowly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cellbine Posted May 28, 2014 Report Share Posted May 28, 2014 Well, It's a sad day at my household today... 2hr 15mins to remove all aftermarket lights and re-install OEM lights. Back to stock headlights and vertical lights. I had to replace my top chrome strip too... I do, however, appreciate how clean OEM headlights look! I will be keeping my Edge like this because we won't be allowed those lights in Korea. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WWWPerfA_ZN0W Posted May 28, 2014 Author Report Share Posted May 28, 2014 Still looks amazing with stock parts in there, Cellbine. You should work on a hologram for your custom parts so it looks OEM to everyone else when you want them to Did you get a firm date for your posting to Korea?

Cellbine Posted May 28, 2014 Report Share Posted May 28, 2014 Yeah, It will be in a few months. Ill post some pics in a new thread once I get there. Ill probably have to wait about 2-3 months after I ship our Edge to get it. Bummer. Hologram? Haha! That would be awesome! I was just thinking that it would be cool to have "solar panel" paint on an electric car. Random though...I think I might paint my Edge a matte color in the future. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WWWPerfA_ZN0W Posted May 29, 2014 Author Report Share Posted May 29, 2014 2-3 months? That would totally bum me out Never heard of "solar panel" paint? I will have to look into that! I have seen the result of professionally "baked on" plastidip on a Taurus SHO. Pretty awesome results. So I would heartily encourage you to do further experimentation Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cellbine Posted May 29, 2014 Report Share Posted May 29, 2014 Interesting. Here in Europe I see a lot of BMWs/Range Rovers/Mercedes that have matte finishes. They look amazing. A while back, EGR posted a picture of a Matte black Edge. I really liked how it looked. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shadrack Posted June 11, 2014 Report Share Posted June 11, 2014 So far on my 2013 Edge Sport I have installed HID's and removed the front license plate frame. I am wanting to install an intake and Magnaflow exhaust hopefully sometime soon. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WWWPerfA_ZN0W Posted June 11, 2014 Author Report Share Posted June 11, 2014 Which HIDs did you go with, Shadrack? What intake are you planning on installing? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PrinzII Posted June 14, 2014 Report Share Posted June 14, 2014 WW: A little over 2 years before the left one blew. The right one worked fine. I decided to replace both bulbs for consistency in color. As for what's been done lately, let's just say I have added to my AZ detailing supply stash. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tamugrad2013 Posted June 30, 2014 Report Share Posted June 30, 2014 I changed her oil again for a second time since I owned her and this is seriously the easiest car I have ever changed the oil on. I hate that I already have 23000 miles on her but it has been fun so far. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ozimandius Posted June 30, 2014 Report Share Posted June 30, 2014 I'm looking to change the brakepads but I haven't received any responses for my query in a thread regarding brakepads yesterday. Just need to decide between: Centric 105.1258 Posi-Quiet Ceramic Brake Pad with Shims - USD 45.67 Centric 105.1259 Posi-Quiet Ceramic Brake Pad with Shims - USD 31.47 Akebono ACT1259 ProACT Ultra-Premium Ceramic Brake Pad Set - USD 64.30 Akebono ACT1258 ProACT Ultra-Premium Ceramic Brake Pad Set - USD 65.31 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did have ProACTs (at mechanic's recommendation for my SHO), quiet, not dusty, but horrible stopping power. They may have updated the formulation since then though.
