    Help On Installing SS Speed Grille On Explorer Sport...

    Well I don't have any pics at the moment but maybe in the near future. The reason I changed from the old grille to the Speed Grille is because the billet grille i had only came with 2 main pieces and no side parts, and it didn't have a valence that i could order to match. But mainly the change...

    Help On Installing SS Speed Grille On Explorer Sport...

    I recently purchased the Street Scene Speed Grille for the explorer sport and today was my first chance to work on. So I started to work on it, but I've arrived at a few problems (the instructuions that came with the grille aren't that great and have no pictures). First of all I'm wondering...

    Sorry but . . .

    I don't have any pictures of my vehicle at the moment, mainly because I don't have a digital camera or scanner, but I plan on getting some pictures after I lower it. Hopefully I can get around to lowering it by the end of the month, and by then I'll hopefully will post some pics! :)

    Sorry but . . .

    Oh ok cool, thats sounds great because I have a 4X4 as well and I really liked how your drop turned out so I was going to do it exactly the same way and to the same degree (3" in front and 1" in the back) as you. I also want to go for the "sportier" look and not totally slam it, mainly because...

    Sorry but . . .

    Hey Black Magic, I was looking at your write up on how to lower a 2001 sport and its says that you lowered the front 3" and the back 1". So I was wondering if you had a 4X4 or not, because I have heard that you cannot lower a 4X4 more than 2" without having problems. So I'm assuming you don't...

    Opinions on dash kits...

    I was wondering everyone's opinions on what kind of dash kit would look best with the interior of a 2001 X Sport. The interior of mine is gray/silver and I was wondering which kit out of brush aluminum/steel, wood or carbon fiber would look best. I personally think the brushed would look the...

    Removing Roof Racks...

    This is a question to everyone that has removed the roof racks off of their 2001+ Explorer Sports, not shaved just unbolted them and replace bolts in the holes. I was wondering if anyone has experienced any problems when doing this with leaking or any other problems. I was also wondering if...

    Question About "Sport" Emblems.

    Actually I was thinking about it, I really like your STREET emblem, its pretty tight. I also like the SVT idea too, not as original but still cool. Hey I was also wondering if you knew of places that still sell the Saleen wing.

    Question About "Sport" Emblems.

    Well it is done, I've removed the SPORT emblem. Overall I say it looks better, I personally think that the 2001+ SPORT emblem looks kinda cheap when compared to the "chrome" lettering of the EXPLORER on the rest of the truck. By removing the SPORT emblem the truck looks somewhat "cleaner", and...

    Question About "Sport" Emblems.

    I was wondering if anyone knew the best way to remove the "SPORT" emblems from the 2001+ explorer sports.

    Sidemarkers..

    Thanks to everyone who posted! They actually look great on the explorers (looking at Kodeblu's pic). I think I'm definatly going to get them, and I think I'm gonna go with the clear and yellow bulb or maybe blue bulb. One more question though, how hard is it to install? Because I don't...

    Sidemarkers..

    I've been thinking of whether or not to install some sidemarkers on my explorer, I think they look nice but I was wondering if it would not look that great on an SUV like an explorer. So as a result I'm asking anyone to share their opinion on what they think, whether its a terrible idea or...

    A Question..

    So the pinstripe wheel works well, as long as you don't press to hard or hold in one spot for too long which I assume would lead to a person ruining their paint right? And the pinstripe wheel we get rid of all the glue, is there any need for buffing/cleaning after removal of the glue?

    A Question..

    I was wondering if anyone knew the best way to remove dealership emblems (the ones that are plastic and kind of like the explorer and sport emblems). The ones I am refering to have no screws and are attached simply by glue or some other sort of glue-esqe material. I was also wondering if using...
