Re: What did you do to your boss today?

Installed new rotors and pads, front and rear. Special thanks to Pete of TrackDaySolutions.com for his help with the Pagid pads, RS14 front and RS56 rear. Pete was great in helping me decide which to go with and then promptly shipping them to me. Hoping this truly is the end of the snow so I can get these seasoned and bed-in before testing them out on the track in 10 days.

Yep, I've had enough too.
Anyone make skies for a Boss? I'm beginning to think that's the only way I'll get to drive it this year . . .

No skies that I know of but they do make a BOSS snow plow if that helps.

Re: What did you do to your boss today?

I just finished putting on my Pagid RS-14s(Thanks Pete) and got my Spek Oil Temp gauge in. The sender Tee brass fitting picture in the Aeroforce Gauge install thread really helped. Now getting the grille in. Outside temp gives me about 2-3 more weeks here for tracktime as it is hitting 90 deg today. ;D

Looks good Ron. What grille are you installing?

I am going with the Black Retro 7 bar grille from american Muscle. I almost got the Roush 7 Bar but they look exactly the same. I got the surround also for the GT as that was required. I will swap this in mainly just for track use to give max cooling. It looks just like the CJ grille which I can't find anymore.

I know someone with a CJ grille. I like the gauge. My next project is adding an oil temp sender for my Aeroforce gauge.

Let me know if it's a fairly easy swap (like the stock grille to the 302S). It looked to me like there were quite a few "gator" clips that were more one way and not easily taken on and off like the stock tabs. I will probably end up with one like that but figured it would just be an all the time grille since it might not be as easy to swap out as the stocker.

GRILLE's IN!
Easy Swap(less than 5 minutes) and same as the 302S. The gator clips are to fasten it to the surround and thats why you have to buy the GT surround as the grill mounts to that and then you just swap it in and out for track days. ;D
Oh, and Rick was right, and the black surround doesn't look too bad.

That's a first.

Re: What did you do to your boss today?

Ron - It looks very good. Below is the grille that I think you went with. Do you have the part number of the surround?

Roush 7 Bar Upper Black Billet Grille (10-12 GT)

Re: What did you do to your boss today?

Nice grill and surround, I really like the splitter also, I put a splitter on my 2013.
Where does everyone buy the FORD RACING stickers that I see on the rear quarter windows?
Thank you, Steve

Yes thats right on the grille. Oh wait, I almost went with that one, but went with the Black Retro Grill 10-12 from american muscle because it is on sale. The surround is AR3Z8419AA and available many places but I got it from rockauto.

The Ford Racing stickers are the standard 15" ones.
