shoulinpanther Posted April 14, 2013 Report Share Posted April 14, 2013 Hello all, Just wanted to say what’s up! I am a new Ford Edge Sport owner, just picked it up this past Wednesday. It is a 2013 FWD model, I can say that I definitely enjoy it quite a bit so far. I hope to find the information on what I need and want to do to my edge in this forum. So far I have read through a lot of audio posts because that is something that has always been at the top of my list with every vehicle I have owned.

WWWPerfA_ZN0W Posted April 15, 2013 Report Share Posted April 15, 2013 Welcome to our corner of the world! What color is your Edge, and how did you come to pick the Edge as your ride? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shoulinpanther Posted April 15, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 15, 2013 Tuxedo black! I really like the color. I had a 2 door honda civic for the last 7 years because I didn't really need a bigger vehicle. I have a second kid on the way now and well the little car had to go. I have been looking at the Edge Sports for over a year just really didn't have to extra incentive to buy one yet, until now that is. I really enjoy the ride it is smooth and the vehicle is roomy enough without being to big. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WWWPerfA_ZN0W Posted April 15, 2013 Report Share Posted April 15, 2013 Congrats on the new addition to the family! A smooth ride means a quiet ride too 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shoulinpanther Posted April 15, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 15, 2013 Thank you for the welcomes! I definitely love the edge more and more everyday. Had my subs installed today, one of my holds on staying young, or I just like loud music. Either way I know I got the right ride for me.

shoulinpanther Posted April 16, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 16, 2013 (edited) Considering I went from a 500hp markIII supra in Japan to the civic when I moved back it was time to get me a nicer vehicle. Also thank you for the welcome. Edited April 16, 2013 by shoulinpanther Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WWWPerfA_ZN0W Posted April 17, 2013 Report Share Posted April 17, 2013 Hey, I think your file cabinet fell over! :hysterical2: J/K! So, care to share the specs on your new/upgraded stereo system? What were you looking to achieve? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shoulinpanther Posted April 17, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 17, 2013 I love loud music, and I love loud bass. It is something I have been doing since I was 16 and it has stuck with me for years. This current upgrade is 2 Kicker S12L7's with dual 4ohm voice coils. Paired with a rockford punch 1000. I used a LOC (line out converter) it is tapped in the wire harness at the driver kick panel then RCA's are ran through the interior. Everything is hidden except the box of course. This was all done professionally this is the first vehicle I have owned that I did not do myself. It sounds amazing and can be turned up to destroy ear drums if the need arises. Here are some shots of my civic that I had before this that I did myself. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wannabang Posted April 18, 2013 Report Share Posted April 18, 2013 A little bump is always fun. Check mine out. Ride looks cleannnn. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shoulinpanther Posted April 18, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 18, 2013 (edited) A little bump is always fun. Check mine out. Ride looks cleannnn. Thats a pretty nice set up. As far as future mods it all depends on extra money and what not. I do have a second kid on the way so I am not going to spend money that I don't need to as of right now. Things I want to do or wish list so to speak are as follows. Tint the front windows to 18% to match the back, possibly darker tint on the back Replace all interior speakers with high end high quality components and of course amp and EQ them HID conversion not sure which to go with though as far was wattage but I am pretty sure I either wank 5k or 6k for color I want all the lights on the front to match color wise so I will probably need help finding out which ones to go with. LED switchbacks for the front DTBL Option 3's for the front stripe lights DTBL interior LED's Have the chrome pieces up front painted to match the car, and debadge the rest of the car. I am not a chrome fan unless its on the wheels but not the whole wheel. Black Ford Logo Emblems front and back. Maybe lower it as well just not sure I want to mess with that on this car. I have never had a ride that wasn't lowered in some form or fashion. Edited April 18, 2013 by shoulinpanther Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's slightly darker on the inside than the back, but looks fine from the outside. I've been thinking of going to 10% around back. HIDs are a must!

kc300c Posted April 21, 2013 Report Share Posted April 21, 2013 I'm with Rockballer. 2 door Civic to Edge Sport is a big leap. You must be loving it. Glad to have you on the forum and thanks for thinking of me and my LED lighting as possible Le upgrades. I'm replying from my phone so can't post photos of it, but I'm going to begin taking orders for my new Edge-2 LED DRL later this month. Shoot me an email at info@daytimebrightlites.com and I'll send you a pic of it. You may want to put aside a bit of mod money for the new Edge LED taillight I'm hoping to have out in June. Not releasing photos of that yet. (The design is still a bit fluid right now, but the first prototypes look awesome. Stay tuned) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
