Hey guys I've been tooling around on this website for a while now and have learned alot from everybody's posts and how-to's. I figured it was time to see what yall think. It's not crazy but for my daily driver, I like it.
Under the hood:
- Short ram intake
- Helix throttle body spacer
- Flowmaster dual-chamber
- Red top Optima
- replaced the 95amp alternator with a 130amp
- Throttle cable "update" (thanks to EF) made a big difference. Thank you!!!
Body:
- Removed pinstriping
- Removed plastic trim on doors
- Repainted bumper plastic and grille inset black
- Repainted the faded black trim on the doors and the back
- 9000K HIDs
- Hyperwhite reverse lights
- LED license plate lights
Suspension:
- 2" blocks rear
- 2" torsion twist up front (thanks to EF)
- Removed front bump stops (still need to do rear)
Interior:
- Micro suede headliner and door panels (testing how it looks and holds up before I spring for the "real" stuff)
- LED dome lights, map lights and courtesy lights
- White face gauges
- Sony Xplod head unit (not my first choice but had to get something cheap since the Ex has been broken into 5, yes 5! times in the last year and a half)
- Pioneer 3-ways in the doors
- Kenwood 800 watt mono amp
- 2 Memphis 15" subs in a ported box
- 35% tint on front doors, 5% on rear doors and rear hatch, 2.5% on the rear quarter windows
- LED window switches, rear wiper control and defrost, and A/C control panel (thanks again EF)
- Autopage 2-way remote start and alarm (love this thing, has not been broken into again yet, knock on wood)
I think that's all of it but i might have missed something. I have a lot of future plans too but I am always open for suggestions and advice and am constantly looking for inspiration.
You guys are doing a great service to Explorer owners everywhere keep 'em coming.
Let me know what you think, I enjoy getting feedback of any kind.
