Performance Pack Front Splitter

Date completed: 11/21/24

Purchased from eBay (more available as of writing this)

Just enough of a difference for me, and a very simple install. Slips right into place, just like the non-PP splitter, and uses all of the same hardware.

AOOC Aluminum Caliper Covers in Grabber Blue

Date completed: 1/18/25

Thanks to @sunnydhama for the initial post about these!

Purchased from: AOOA aluminum caliper covers for Ford Mustang (Set of 4)

Ordered with No Logo and here's the link to the decals: Amazon.com: R&G Brembo Decal Combo Package

Are you road racing? If so, check out @roket 's thread for Brembo retrofitting.

Not road racing and want a very cool looking appearance mod for WAY less money? These are like no other caliper cover I've ever seen. The quality is amazing, the finish is flawless, and the fitment is perfect.

And like I've said in other threads: I need my Performance Pack wing to hold down the rear of my car as badly as I need 6-piston brakes up front to stop. These covers are a great alternative to the real thing!

And the proof is in the pudding: I've told multiple people I work with (that are into muscle cars) that I've upgraded to the big brake package. They go out to look at the car and when I ultimately tell them that they are really only covers, they are in disbelief.

Comparison to a real Brembo caliper on the showroom floor:

Like most things, this picture doesn't do them justice. Much better looking in person:
