It would be the perfect spot. But, just like you I’ve got the MM version sitting in my office waiting to install. The passenger side behind the bumper out of the way was the only spot that wasn’t an eyesore.
I'm not sure the MM version installs like the Putco, but I found a video where the guy doesn't remove the bumper and gets it installed.

Takes about 5 minutes, just have to pop off plastic push-ins, place grill, and pop the pins back in.

You over estimate my ability to pop off plastic parts! =D

I'd undoubtedly break clips.

You should have seen me trying to get the seat bolt covers off! They all now have a little hole in the seam where I stuck a brake tool that looks like a bent ice pick in.

Here's what I'll end up with if I try it:

MM is suppose to be pretty simple. I’ll make sure I report back with a four page photo, summary and explanation.

You can spruce it up with a splash of color before you install it if you like... :thumbsup:

The Ford Performance exhaust is a really nice option! Way better than just the tip.

I considered a complete exhaust but wasn't sure if tuning was required to make everything happy

New driver's side low beam bulb. Not terribly difficult.
I would have thought the dash display would have told me it was out. Only noticed when I pulled into work and saw the reflection in the glass.
Luckily I am a lowly STX owner and can buy a new bulb at Walmart for $14 instead of needing headlight insurance for LED's.

Peasants gotta work and no time to polish nancy-boy parts doing dump runs! =p

*Ignore the fact the Soupie has a zillion aftermarket parts or is a lifetime member of the AZScorpion Graphene Club* =D

Pop Quiz: Which of the below is more like Soupie?

Checked and added air to the tires at 4:00 am. ? I saw they were all 3 lbs low yesterday and had it on my list but forgot to double check it.:headbang: We're heading back to Mexico today so Annie can get her dental implants and I'm getting the crown my first one and starting another one. It's not a bad drive (2.5 hrs) but it's super boring once you hit I-8 from Gila Bend all the way into Yuma. There's nothing but open desert and an occasional train to see.
Hate to be nosey but what are they charging for a crown? I am in the market for 2 root canal/crowns in the near future.
