I got a Red 21 ST a little over a week ago. Only had 13,000 miles on it and not a scratch or scuff in site, very clean. Front windows and top of windshield were already tinted, bonus for me. Came with all of the ford all weather mats. Over the past week I’ve swapped out the license plate, rear blinker and reverse bulbs with LED and put in a Husky cargo liner. Also bought a separate pet liner to use when the pup has to get in. TODAY I replaced the passenger side rear light cluster cover(side pice that snaps into the side of the taillight) that I broken when swapping out the bulbs.
I purchased over Black Friday/cyber Monday sales but have not done yet, ford splash guards, redline hood struts, black gorilla locking lug nuts, silicone plate frame(still waiting for my plates to come in),anti glare screen protector, metal ST pedal covers, jack pad adapters and black out emblem overlays.
Still waiting to be delivered, timberline skid plate and fen fab ecu cover. Torn on but leaning on doing a very light tint lamin-x on the fog lights and reverse/blinker section of the taillights. Toying with doing the black ford emblems but not sure I wanna tackle that, will see how I feel about the overlay first. Keep flipping back and forth on running boards and rain guards so holding off for now and leaning no all together. Torn on blacking out the ST emblems(bought with the ford overlays) but have a feeling I will want to after I black out the ford emblems and do the fog light/tail light tint.
I also initially purchased an awr diff brace(mine is a 3 bolt) but canceled after reading a Facebook post of a denied warranty claim for a diff leak and they had this brace installed. I did get the extended warranty so decided to ask my service center about it and did not get a straight answer even asking if I had them install it. They just said they it wasn’t necessary after the recall and I should save the $250 the brace costs. They did say they would have to show it caused any problem I did have and they try to work with owners to avoid that. So since this is a family car technically, right now I am mostly going looks and trying to decide what I like to make it mine. Also going anything protective. She is fun to drive so I do plan on doing the ford tune in the spring my service department gave me the thumbs up for warranty wise and will revisit the brace then. Even if it’s “not needed” I will feel better if it’s allowed and won’t mess with the warranty.
Sorry for the long winded post but been really enjoying these forums and all the great stuff I see people doing to these trucks. Maybe one day I’ll get into performance mods and tunes. Gotta get a good detail and ceramic coating. I can do it but it is too cold here in Jersey for that lol.
