What Have You Done To Your Explorer ST Today

@BrooseDaMoose tagged you so you could see how the wheels turned out. Just plastidip with a top coat of luxury metal. (Worst plastidip product I've ever used in my life, and I'm a life long dipper) Turned out good IMO, I like how they match the plastic moldings. Until I do paint matched.

How did you apply it? Spray? It looks good!

Yes, I did five coats of black, and two coats of luxury metal. I've done Plasti dip on a bunch of my cars. Fonzie has some good videos on YouTube. I'll share some photos of all my emblems later.

Ok you got me. What was the leg protector for? Good looking rig!

Haha! It's probably on the forum somewhere here, it's an old EcoBoost trick. You buy 1 in furniture leg protectors, and cap off the return into the air intake. Essentially turns your blow off into a vent to atmosphere system.

Got the Car back from the dealership yesterday Power folding seats are now fixed. This Morning I got the new Rims installed and I think it looks better now. before and after. Since the before picture was taken I have added front Tint, Door handle black covers, Embossed Explorer decals for the doors. Debating on painting the calipers RED or sticking with the unpainted silver look and keeping the car silver and black all around.

I changed out the license plate bulbs, Super Brite Led's #194-W-120 (less than $10 delivered), and got the polarity right the first time!
