Nice! Which version of Borla did you install?
Any pics or the whole side of the car showing the stance?

I went with the Borla-S, cat back system. I like the stance now, not too low but just enough to even out the wheel arches top and sides. First pic is before and second two are today.

Looks great, beautiful setup.

How did the rear sway bar impact handling overall?

 

[MACH13]

Honestly, I driven it a few times since the install. I can’t really tell because I would have to have done a before and after.

What brand are the red's?

What brand are the red's?

They’re Steeda, so they were orig. blue, I had
them powder coated red.

The whole combo turned out great - if you are interested, we just released our front swaybar if you want to add to your collection of red

What was the cost of the powder coat, was the red a specific shade to match the brakes or just red. I have seen high heat spray cans that are labeled Ford Red

I used a local guy here in Central Ca.
It was $250, that was for the springs, rear sway bar, strut support & the ECU cover.
I found that the Cardinal RD-01 off the shelf was pretty close to the brake colors.

just add a set of 1.25" wheel spacers to the rear and this is the set up I am looking at. Looks killer!!! Love the RED!!

Thanks, Ha,ha…Already have them on order! I got them for the F/R and a set of black lugs.

Killer! Cant wait to see the pics!!! Are you doing 1.25 all around? I was thinking 1" for the front but don't really want to deal with trimming the lugs....

Ya, 1.25 on all 4’s. I’m also not a fan of cutting the studs. I also ordered a rear diff mount, I’m a 1 bolt’er.

Curious to know where did you buy the 1.25 spacers that do not require bolt modification? I do not want to cut bolts - recommendations?

I went thru a place called Motorsport Technology out of Reno, Nevada.
the spacers will be Bora’s.

I finally got a chance and checked that out last night, I see you guys have them on sale (intro I suppose?)

It is my understanding that anything 1.25" or greater do not require trimming of the factory lugs. I was wondering how the Steeda spacers compare to the Bora spacers? I do see more people using the Bora....

I have Steeda spacers on mine and the quality is the same on Bora’s I’ve used in the past.
