So the Expedition got a scratch in the fender so i got the buffer out and fixed it.





























Oh and i threw on twin turbos while i was at it.



Playing around with vinyl wrap to get rid of the chrome door handles.

 

Sorry for the crappy pics, its been shitty out and havent taken any good pic

 

You might have buffed too hard... Looks like all the paint came off. And that Ford lays it on thick because that looks a heck of a lot smaller too.

(looks nice!)

and i'm not just talking 'bout the fella in the reflection.

 

thanks.

Ordered some black Ford emblems to get rid of the blue ones,

Livernois has been contacted

 

Enjoy Kris.

 

Nice! Congrats, man!

 

You mean you buffed all the way to the metal, then put primer on? Damn, you're tougher than I thought!

Seriously, congrats on the pickup and sorry to read of the accident. Will you be able to get along without the room of the Expedition?

 

 

Nice!

 

Congrats

I hear those respond very well to mods. Have fun.

 

Congrats you're going to love it. My street is full of these now... Across the street has a Edge Sport, I have the Explorer XLT with all the options, neighbor four doors down has a Explorer Sport, then around the corner someone has another Explorer Sport.


Also, can't wait for the tune.

 

Do you take client work? I'd like a detail with that kind of result

 

Congrats
Nice truck

I like your shoe laces

 

Congratulations. It looks great. Nice work on the door handles.

 

Apparently if you buff red long enough it turns to tuxedo black.

Thanks, that was a 40mph clip. Idiot going the otherway somehow didnt see a gint red bus and tried to turn infront of me. Rilped the backend of his car off. Kids were with and never felt a thing. As for the room, other than not being able to fit 4x8 sheets of plywood inside it has pretty much just as much room inside. It has captains chairs in the 2nd row but still seats 6. It has a ton more room behind the 3rd row. Dont even get me started on the power. This thing is amazing. The ski boat won't slow this thing 1 bit.

 

Come on over. We'll see what we can do

 

They respond amazingly to mods. Especially tunes.

Yea, starting to see more and more around here too. Yea, should hopefully have a tune on it in a few weeks. Thing is an animal now. I've gotten it to break loose all 4 a few times now. Another 100 hp and tq should be wild

 

Congrats!

 

Glad nobody was seriously injured in the accident. Sweet upgrade! Enjoy it in good health

 

Congrats, bud!

 

Gi-ga-TEE!

 

Don't you want people to know you're driving a "luxury" SUV?

In any case, congrats. Best looking generation Explorer to date.

 

If they cant figure it out because there isnt chrome door handles, i could care less what they think

Thanks

 

Talk about good after the bad.....

Congrats

It will start with a tune....then.....

 

Then a second mortgage, just to "touch up" the new explorer, right?

 

3-2-1 until your kids say " MORE BOOST DADDY!"

 

Congrats on the Explorer! Ford did a fantastic job on this generation of the Explorer

 

Congrats on the new Explorer, looks very nice!
My sister-in-law has a 2014 Explorer Sport and it's been a great SUV.

 

Awesome! Have fun with the TT.

 

Love the new ride Fstty. Only one problem though. I think your wifes car might now be faster than your TL You need a snail or snails on the TL.

 

I have a pair of ecoboost turbos laying around

 

Oh i know. 160 deg thermostat and 3 bar map ordered, and i am Already looking at downpipes, exhaust and meth

 

I pulled off the BOV tubes so that it vents to atmosphere over the weekend and the kids love it. Kept telling me to giver some more so that they could hear it. Quinn loves the takeoffs, says it feels like her hat is going to fall off. Wait till i bump the boost from 8 to 16

 

Nice! Have you had any issues with the smart key after the vinyl?

 

Congrats! Looking tank.

 

Another TT Ecoboost on the board... sweet! Can't wait to see how this thing responds to the mods. All the best luck!!

P.S. I love it too when my kids say, "Go fast dada'!

 

Looks great! Really nice work on the vinyl.
Where did you order the blackout Ford emblems? We only have them on the liftgate, wheels & steering wheel, but black would look better than blue, IMO. Especially since the 'F L E X' on the hood is black.

But you should've bought a EB Flex!

 

nope. The handle comes apart so i was able to wrap the vinyl into the hole and cut it so that the little button comes thru.

 

there are a couple places on ebay that sell them. I found out afterwards that if you get the oem 13+ F150 ford emblems you can actually take them apart so that you can paint them.

 

TIL Fsttyms1 is actually Bill Simmons

Congrats on the new ride and welcome to Fordzine.
