installed Scott's oil breather system (a literal 5-minute install):

If you're talking about Scott's breather kit....

Looks good :) but you guys are killing me with these comments. I'm just copying what was out there before I even knew about them, not to mention the bracket was made by another member. It is kind of nice to know something I worked on are on cars all around the US, Canada and even England.

My breather from Scott still sits in the box--been too busy putting my suspension in.

Aligned the front end today after installing the Koni struts, Steeda springs.

Thought it was a easy snap on no work done in seconds install? False advertising? Lawsuit?

I'm sure it will be an easy install!
But I've been up until 11:00 or midnight for several nights working on the Watts link. My fun meter is pegged for car work at this point.
So the breather going in as planned in minutes will be appreciated. Maybe Saturday.

Re: What did you do to your boss today?

Ordered a pair of 194 LED replacement bulbs for the overhead lamps in the overhead console. Replaced the yellow standard bulbs with these (superbrightleds.com part number WLED-NW5 natural white LED).

These work very well. Much brighter and whiter than the original bulbs. Also, you replace these by removing the clear lens in the housing as the bulb portion is too large to fit through the hole. The lens naps out with a small screwdriver. MAKE SURE that you don't try to pry out the larger of the three plastic tangs in the lens. Pry each of the smaller ones out first and the lens hinges down at the larger tang. I can take photos if anyone wishes but there are plenty of you tube videos about this change.

Re: What did you do to your boss today?

Today I had the track key installed. About to wash and wax her for the car show tomorrow. Opened the exhaust, too. What a lovely day! 8)

Just washed and detailed my baby. Local cruise in tonite at Cabela's and going to my first Cars and Coffee tomorrow in Austin.

Sucks to hear the extent of the damage Steve. Good luck getting everything sorted and as others have said, the most important thing is you're still in one piece.

I installed a Steeda spoiler on my car today. I think it turned out really nice. Still need to find something to plug the two outside holes on the trunk though...

Really like the look of the spoiler, any idea as to whether it provides as much or similar downforce to the Kenny wing?
 
Re: What did you do to your boss today?

Sound tube delete today (thanks Blowfish Racing!). So with that, exhaust plate change, and hood lifts, I think I've done the "minimum must do mods." On to the bigger stuff...
 
Re: What did you do to your boss today?

Stopped at the weekly cruise in at Cabela's in Buda, TX tonite. Man this event has grown. Fair amount of new mustangs and was surprised to see six other Bosses. A 2012 White, CO and RR and 2013 RR, SBY LS and Black LS. My GB made lucky 7.

I would imagine the KB wing would provide more downforce than this one. As to how much though I'm not really sure. I'll have my car out on the road course this next weekend so I'll see if any additional downforce is felt with this wing.

Re: What did you do to your boss today?

I went for the best drive in my life along some twisty and one lane roads. I used my go pro but it died before we got to the good parts. The roads were in disrepair and I was in the hardest suspension setting so I was white-knuckling a bit but insanely fun.
