looks good about time you got some daytime pics haha. I always think daytime looks better unless you really know what your doing with camera settings. Looks good post up some pics after you get the tint done. Thats tomorrow right?

Hrm the bumper looks a little slanted unless its the camera. There is a much bigger gap between the trunk on the right than on the left. IMO i would chop off the tips and put on some SS tips. Glad you finally got your bumper though haha

go to wal-mart and buy the motorcraft filter your car takes and your choice of oil. Get the car up with either ramps or jacks. make sure you put jackstands down too for safety. I like to run the engine for a minute or so so the oil can warm up a little. (don't run the engine long though cause the oil heats up quick) Find the oil pan under the engine. remove the drain bolt (remove the fill cap up top too so the oil will flow out faster) and drain out the old oil into your drain pan. Remove the old filter, making sure the old gasket comes with. (sometimes i use a piece of sandpaper for grip if the old filter doesn't wanna come off) I like to fill the new filter before i put it on, although I'm not sure if this is necessary (i noticed before i was getting a spike in the oil pressure after changing it) Use a little bit of oil to lube the gasket on the new filter before putting it on. once the new filter makes contact, you go another half turn. You shouldn't even need tools to get the old filter off or put the new one on. replace the drain bolt and fill the car with however many quarts the 3.8 takes (the manual will say) Replace the fill cap, and drive away glad you just saved some money on something so simple.
Edit to address streetracers point: To get rid of the old oil just take it to an autozone, they take it for free
I think i covered most of it, someone else can feel free to point out anything i might have missed

ok everyone just ignore my comment about the bumper possibly being slanted lol. The car looks great. Just brought it up because its important for a bumper to be installed correctly since its for safety and on my screen this picture made it look a little slanted its probably just my eyes. I just looked at the bumper/trunk line and saw that the space between the trunk and bumper seemed to get larger as you move to the passenger side of the car. I take it back though lol its probably just the lighting.

thank you and here are a few pics of the bumper/bumperinserts/shorty antenna.(put the inserts&Antenna on today) . had to re-schedule the tint job. taking it in this wednesday to get 20% all around.
yeah the tips need to be redone so it looks good and i have the 232 badges to put on. not sure where im gonna put them. was thinking of taking off the poney emblems on the fenders and putting the 232 badges on each side(i have 2 of them) then i was thinking of just using 1 of em and remove the Ford emblem on the trunk and putting the 232 there. any ideas where to put them? both on fenders or 1 on trunk(after taking the ford one off) ? btw, i didnt washer it or anything
