Taking delivery Thursday on my 21 ST. Can't wait. The one thing I wanted was
Red calipers, black spoke wheels. It does not have them, but couldn't pass on vehicle. Less than 6,000 miles. Want some advice on what you would do to make this happen. I work for Ford Dealer and get parts for little above cost. I am taking baby steps. What do I need to do to look like the Street Pack.

If you’re wanting to upgrade the brakes and wheels, the best way to get them are used. A lot of people upgrade their stock Street Pack wheels and brakes and you would definitely be able to get them for a lot cheaper then even if you could get A-plan (which I assume is what you get being a dealership employee) or if you get them at-cost.

PIU (Police Interceptor Unit) Also have the upgraded brake package and can be had cheap off eBay or Local Junk Yard. They are just not painted Red. You will need Calipers, Caliper Brackets, Dust Shield (You can trim your current ones) Rotors and Pads.. I am into my kit for about $700.00 - Calipers and brackets for $300 off a PIU with 6k miles on it.. $400 for Rotors, pads, and paint.
