I need these side skirts asap, my front CF splitter is begging for them, I can't wait to get my hands on them

car (as usual) looks great Scott, its amazing what a small add on like the side skirts does to complete the whole look, great work!

Im pretty sure black ops will do a different side splitter from these if they can....or thats what i was told.
 
#127 ·
I have the fronts as well. ..just waiting on the revised passenger side as SOMEONE forgot to send it....lol

Stunning Scott, always love reading you threads, although it normally ends in me wanting more parts.
 
#131 ·
LOL...Ive sold alot of parts for vendors over the years....J/K!

I hope my ideas help others mod their vehicles

Believe it or not CNY wk2...its very similar to that except it has a center exhaust...which I dont wanna do! :(
 
#134 ·
I personally prefer the split dual exhaust myself as well. The center exhaust is different looking but starts to make things more complicated than they need to be. Plus I am not sure if a center exhaust would go with the WK2 styling.

As a selling point I would guess a simple bolt on diffuser would sell better than one requiring exhaust work.

right...black ops has a prototype...but the mounting points werent exactly right. Im sure they are still working on it. Theres prolly some pics here somewhere.

thank u sir! Great to have you and your beautiful ride here! You have some great photography skills!

I'm in love with all of the mods you made!

Really badass! :D

Also have plans for carbon stuff from Black Ops. Next year...
Thank Mike! :thumbsup:

Redline has really grown on me. I think it's a toss up between that and white. My wife loves bright red vehicles and has given me the blessing to get a 2014 (particularly in Redline!) if I want but I'm not sure if I want to spend the money for a few upgrades.

I was the same way RJ....till this one showed up and I drove it. The 8 speed is perfect for this beast. The color got me in the door and the new 8 speed sold me. If you haven't driven one.....do it.:thumbsup:

I think I even stated publically that I was gonna keep my 2013.....LOL.

I haven't weighed the oem yet...but I will. I suspect its probably about 30 pounds.

Not noticed a temp gain with the hood...but not really paid attention. I know the outside temp today was 33 and my IAT was showing 34 on the gauges.
I have the bwoody 4"

I have a working deal on the table for a 2014 Redline with roof, HK, and black vapors on the lot. Not as good a deal though as if I order one from the place I got my Shelby though, it would be about $20 month cheaper.

I'm on the fence for Redline or White, just showed my wife your Redline, Scott, and she literally said "ohhhh yes, that's beautiful. Buy it, buy it now and make it look like that. I love it." She loves bright red cars and was serious, even if it was a bit disturbing sounding. So, you may have a fraternal twin in the future as if I get a new one I plan to do some mods once again.
tell her thanks for the compliment! I really love this redline too.

here ya go Mike(badassdad)
Thanks for the shot, Scott. I ordered the same intake, but sell it because of 2 reasons:
- very small replacement for the washer tank
- very low position for the filter itself. In Russia we have very dirty roads, so I suppose to clean this type of filter twice a week... :mad:

Btw, don't You have any updates from Black Ops and their rear bumper? ;)

I was thinking about it...but I think Ill save that cash and put towards the 2018 with the 6.2 hellcat engine.....etc. The next gen SRT will be an incredible platform that I just don't think I will be able to pass up.

I think Tom is considering F/I. He was talking to RIPP Superchargers on Instagram about it.
 
#158 ·
I will bolt on my headers and green cats and see what happens from there. I would rather do all motor...like a 426 or 440 vs. F/I'ed
