ESedge Posted October 8, 2020 Report Share Posted October 8, 2020 (edited) So I'm going to start off by saying that I'm back, but most of you probably never knew I left. I stopped in a long time ago and made a post about my '15 two toned Electric Spice Sport. Well since then I was in a pretty traumatic accident and my love was destroyed, but somehow I managed to come out alive. I will say that it saved my life and I'm a VERY fond believer in that. 20200514_131606 by tgrfly4@sbcglobal.net, on Flickr After the accident I started shopping again and found myself a Lightning Blue Metallic '18 Sport. Everything else is a blur after that. I started spending like it was going out of style, but it was a sort of coping mechanism for me after the wreck. I'm sure many of you can get where I'm coming from. After the purchase, I got with my painter and was ready to get it into the body shop to install the SS Tuning body kit and front splitter that I had originally purchased for my 2015. I ended up purchasing a set of used 3pc AMF Forged 22x10.5 wheels that had originally came off a Edge that was built for SEMA a couple years back. The car also got a different stance using the H&R Springs that everyone knows and loves, as well as a Addco rear sway bar. After I got all that ironed out, I scheduled a photoshoot and here's a few from the group.

Completed a full stereo install. 20200912_150409 by tgrfly4@sbcglobal.net, on Flickr 20200912_140314 by tgrfly4@sbcglobal.net, on Flickr Full two step paint correction... 20200717_172042 by tgrfly4@sbcglobal.net, on Flickr Minor change, but new blue spiked lugs 20200808_130311 by tgrfly4@sbcglobal.net, on Flickr 20200808_131447 by tgrfly4@sbcglobal.net, on Flickr And most recently, I installed Oracle Colorshift underglow and wheel rings.... 20201007_200100 by tgrfly4@sbcglobal.net, on Flickr 20201007_200038 by tgrfly4@sbcglobal.net, on Flickr Next piece of the puzzle is to start on the interior. Plan is to wrap most of the trim pieces in Hexis forged carbon fiber and then all the stainless trim will be color matched to the outside of the car. We all know its NEVER done so we will see where it goes from there. Thanks for looking. Please ask any questions and feel free to comment.

2FAST4U Posted October 8, 2020 Report Share Posted October 8, 2020 Wow... I just saw the picture of your wrecked '15!... Glad you got out of it alive! About your "new" '18 Sport, It looks beautiful...The stance, the wheels, and especially the color... looks great! Personally, it's the grille which I'm not too crazy of, but other than that, it looks beautiful! Great job! Claude. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xtra Posted January 3, 2021 Report Share Posted January 3, 2021 That is one beautiful tricked out Edge you have there ESedge. Yours is the first Edge I have ever seen with that body kit. Others have done the front splitter but you did the entire kit with an awesome paint job. Props Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pascale007 Posted June 14, 2022 Report Share Posted June 14, 2022 Hi, glad to hear you were ok after that accident. I wanted to know if the ss tuning body kit gave you any issues with the parking sensors? I wanted to get one for my 18 sport, but had concerns over that. Anyway, the new one looks great! Good luck with future mods and stay safe 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ESedge Posted July 7, 2022 Author Report Share Posted July 7, 2022 (edited) So it has been a long time since I last posted. I mean a LONG time. I am just here to update this post. So since my last post I had my stock hood modified and installed a GT500 center vent and 10-14 Mustang GT side vents into the hood. I got tired of the fact that there was no aftermarket option available so I had my painter(s) get me fixed up. Over last winter I did a lot of work to the car. I had some more work done to the hood. I blew my 2 piece wheels apart and had the center sections powdercoated to something that would really get some attention. I also tore my headlights apart and re-retrofitted them. I color matched the reflectors as well as the projector shrouds. I took the HID projectors out and replaced them with bi-led projectors that were also etched with the "Ford" emblem and also have demon eyes installed and added new DRL strips. I now have a set of dual projectors that work on low and high beams. Also as of recently, within the last couple months, I had installed air ride on the car which has been a major change and I am so happy with it! This has been the majority of the changes. I am extremely happy with the car and how it looks. Edited July 7, 2022 by ESedge 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bscott94 Posted July 26, 2022 Report Share Posted July 26, 2022 This thing is sweet! What part of Indiana are you in? I recognize IRP in a few of those pictures. Also, since this is bagged now, what are you doing with those H&R springs?! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After he bought them he never installed them and bought coilovers. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Next your ride just keeps getting better. I mean better than any SEMA Edge I have ever seen, and that air ride can put you down so low whenever you want, that gophers have tp duck their heads. And that hood of yours is awesome great job!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And that hood of yours is awesome great job!!! There are a few different options as far as coilovers. Main options are BC Racing and D2 Racing. I was and still technically am running the BCs. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pascale007 Posted April 10, 2023 Report Share Posted April 10, 2023 Glad you're okay. Looks really good! Where did you get the honeycomb grill? I have an '18 sport and would like to get one of those, but I have the front camera and want to keep that. Anywho...sweeeet! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The honeycomb grill comes from Amazon and/or eBay. I have purchased a couple of them, one from each place. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ESedge Posted July 12, 2023 Author Report Share Posted July 12, 2023 Been working on these for the last few weeks as a tester for projects moving forward. They came out so good! Definitely gives the outside a little bit more of a wow factor. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
