Quite a Must Have list, Dingo :) Be sure you include gullwing doors in your "not here, later" list! Are you still happy with the Silblades? Time to replace my wipers, so ...

 

Done:

 

T10 2.5W LED Map lights from EBay

42mm Cree 5W Rear Dome and Cargo Lights from EBay

Osram Nightbreaker Plus 9005/6 headlights

TXT LED 9005/6 Headlights

Hella Optilux Extreme Yellow Foglights

DTBL "Sport" Taillights

Weathertech mats all-around

 

Very Soon:

 

Nitto 421Q 245/60/18 tires all-around

Pioneer TS-A6885R Speakers F/R

 

Not Here, Will Be Done Later:

 

Slotted discs (not settled on brand yet)

Hawk HPS or EBC YellowStuff pads

Goodrich SS brake lines

High-performance brake fluid (a little tougher now that SuperBlue is "illegal" to buy)

15w HIDs for reverse lighting

SCT-based tune

Backup & Forward Cameras, integrated (may be a while on this one) - looking to achieve 360 view, discreetly - something like the MobilEye 560

Conti LX20 tires (some time yet)

Door speakers (staying with 2-3 way to keep installation simplified) - probably Infinity or JBL

The Mobileye isn't a camera that you can see the image from. You only get a number/icon display.

The EBC pads eat rotors. The hawks are a good balance.

"Illegal?" Since when and why? Oh, and the Ate Typ200 is the same stuff, but not blue.

Nobody makes stainless lines for mine, so I made them.

My personal favorite brand of brake pads is Performance Friction (carbon metallic), but they do not have an application for the Edge. Have not had good luck with the HPS in the past, but will give them a go again.

 

StopTech does make the SS lines for the 07-10 Edge also, looking to see who might make the 11 & up lines. Yours custom at a brake shop, or DIY? Goodrich part # 13098 for 07-10, 13099 for 11 & up, per autoanything.com.

 

Even though visibility is pretty good with the Edge, I often am at busy intersections with no signals and curving roads. Would like to have confirmation before I get into traffic.

Theres a ton of blue on eBay for twenty bucks each. I made them myself, but at a hydraulic line shop. Need pics?

 

Impressive list, Dingo. Can you fill me in on where you got your Billet Oil Cap?

It was a leftover from another car. www.mustangsunlimited.com/itemdy00.asp?T1=SD107+01

$99 - Aeroskin Chrome Bug Guard: http://www.autoanything.com/deflectors/61A5591A0A0.aspx

(TIP on above... BE SURE to check along the full length of adhesive backer for breaks/cuts. You don't want to be prying it up because the backer is cut or broken and you didnt know it while pushing it down)

(TIP... It came mostly flat. I used a heat gun to slowly and gently curve it while it was hot. I only applied heat to the inside surface that was not finished. I was afraid the constant pulling to straighten out would win out against the 3M adhesive)

Handles_zpsede608de.jpg

 

$2.99 - Heel Pad (Dark grey mostly matched the grey carpet) for driver floor mat. The dealer stacked the floor mats in the back and I didnt inspect them. The drivers had a hole probably from stiletto heals or something. This heel pad along with 3M #88 adhesive worked perfectly, looks great, covers the hole and adds a nice touch for almost nothing. http://www.heelpadwarehouse.com/small-heel-pad/

 

$797.80 Dang! A bit more than I thought but I forgot about a few things until I looked at my ebay/Amazon history! As you can see I am a big eBayer. If I can get good quality or even OEM quality for cheap prices I will do it.

 

 

If you are interested in doing any of these changes yourself in order of "wow" change factor from biggest WOW to least WOW:

 

HIDS

LED Backup Lights

DRL's

Interior LED

License Plate LED

Chrome Handles

Aeroskin

Turn signal/Rear LED's. (While they are noticeably brighter there wasnt much "WOW" after the install)

 

 

The bumper protector, aeroskin were to hide scratches in a used car. The key was so I don't get poked in the pocket.

 

Edit: Sorry for the so-so pics... it has been raining for days :(
