  1. I did see a similar wheel by MHT but I was concerned with the weight.

    ...is counting down the days until he gets his detailing goodies. :D
  3. I like how they complement the Edge's lines. The & Swiss is a close second.
  4. This weekend, I am undertaking the project of detailing the Edge. As it sits, there are the following issues: - Light Swirling from dealer and other washes - Couple of spots on the carpet and seats One thing I do know about Ford's paint is that they use a soft clearcoat. This is a plus in that paint correction will be easier. However, using too aggressive a pad/polish combo will yield undesired results. With that said, this is what I will be using: - Ultimate Detailing Machine (Basically a Random Orbital Polisher) - Sonus SFX Yellow and White Pads - Optimum Polish - Klasse All In One - Klasse Sealant Glaze - Polycharger Wax Booster - Folex Carpet and Upholstery cleaner - 303 Aerospace Protectant - Autoglym Glass Polish - Clay Bar - Chenille Mitt - Detailing brush - Painter's tape to mask off edges and areas I don't want to buff (e.g. Weatherstripping) - A whole lot of microfiber towels - Stoner's Invisible Glass - Eagle One Wheel/Tire cleaner I will have before, during, and after shots of this process.
  5. - Powerslot Rotors - Upgraded Brake Pads Why upgrade to Stainless Steel Lines?
  6. I am going to get one of these because it looks more durable.
  7. Link for swaybar: http://www.hrsprings.com/products/swaybars/
  8. As you all have probably seen in a multitude of threads here, I am working on jazzing up the Edge (not that it really needs any help). The look I am trying to achieve is a classy, yet sporty look. Additionally, I am doing some upgrades to the audio system and the lighting. I have already completed part of stage I which is the hi/lo HID installation. This is a list of the subsequent stages and the modifications therein. Stage I - Lighting and minor upgrades - 6000k HID High and Low Beam - Weathertech Floor Liner and Cargo Liner - Curt Trailer Hitch (Planning for Bike rack) - Bumper Protector - 75% tint on Windshield - Light Taillight Tint - Paint or Powdercoat Stock Grille Black Stage II - Performance - Evolution Performance Tune - H&R Rear Sway Bar - H&R lowering springs (No more than 1") Stage III - Audio & Interior - Eclipse AVN-6620 Head Unit w/ Navigation - Eclipse CH-3083 CD Changer - Eclipse Sirius Module - Eclipse Backup Camera - Eclipse iPod Control Module - Parrot Bluetooth spliced to Sync Bluetooth Rear View Mirror - Tru Technology S44 Amp - Dynaudio Esotec 244 6.5" Components (Front Doors) - Morel Tempo 6x8 Coaxials (Rear Doors) - Sherwood Honey Oak Wood Dash Kit Stage IV - Wheels & Tires - 20 x 9 Asanti AF 128 (Chrome Lip, Black Face) (Alternate choices: & Swiss SW-2, MHT Vendetta, KMC Dime) - Pirelli Scorpion Zero Tires Periodically, I will post updates to the mods as they go along.
  9. Given the Edge is technically the wife-mobile, I have to make it as comfy as possible for her. I saw some H&R springs that don't lower as much as well as a rear sway bar. Those two things just got added to the list of modifications.
  10. Craiger, Could you do the Asantis in a 20" and with black spokes?
  11. Thanks, man. If you find any others in the Wheel Opinions thread I posted, feel free to go for it.
  12. I like it. Could you do the same thing with the Asanti?
  13. I should join that party as well. I need to find clean pics of the Edge and frontal pics of the rims.
  14. I like the Honey Oak kit but with not as many pieces.
  15. Linky for further information: http://www.sherwooddash.com/Parent/dashKits.asp#flat
  16. You and I are pretty much in the same boat but with different rims. My choices for the Black Edge are here: http://www.fordedgeforum.com/index.php?showtopic=1954 As it sits, the top choices in my case are: & Swiss SW-2 Asanti AF128
  17. I had the rollback TSB done and all they have to do is upload the current calibrations to the PCM and your Edge will no longer roll back on inclines. It also seems to shift better in the process.
  18. I went to my dealership and heard some rumblings that Sync will be released for purchase as an accessory later this year. I can't wait because I want that BT mic mirror.
