I've read of UPR K-Members literally coming apart on cars with heavy cornering aspirations, so be careful!
Chrome moly?! Lol were they HDPE only cars? Never heard of that. I’ve had a handful of UPR k members and put them through the ringer with no issue. Guess there are ghost stories with every brand out there. Thanks for the heads up though!I've read of UPR K-Members literally coming apart on cars with heavy cornering aspirations, so be careful!
It would look good painted top and bottom. Attention to detail adds class.It’s a 3” double cowl .
Honestly, my mind was made up on cutting in the paint along the hood line to match the grill...which is the reason it’s sitting at the paint shop now. But then I saw it and now I’m going back and forth. It looks so nice. Not to mention the underside of the hood is black and I think it might look awkward when the mineral grey stops on the top surface. REALLY tough decision frankly. Would cost a fortune to smooth/prep and paint the underside
Thank you brother!This may be one of my favorite New Edge Mustang builds. I'm living vicariously through you and enjoying each step.

Thanks! It’s been a grind but we’re committed!Man that underside is CLEAN! This car is coming together quite fast.
Anyone that says attention to details is cheap lied to you
I learned the hard way of the Hellion specific k member. It completely escaped me until we ran into the fitment issue. I’m sure the “consensus” is that the UPR is far inferior but I’ve had both...many times each, and could never tell/feel a difference. This car will be so tight with the torque arm, panhard, sway bars and 4 corner coil overs that I strongly doubt it constitutes a downgrade of any kind. You are right though, the car is not meant to a dedicated track car. More a car that can take exit ramps ferociouslyLooks like the MM k you were using is their regular K member with the cross brace. The hellion specific MM K member doesn't have that brace and was what was used to design the hellion kits. Bummer you had to go to UPR. About 10 notches down in terms of handling ability but if this is a "Fun" car it won't really matter that much.
I LOVE the color scheme. Excited to see more!
Thanks!^ I daily my car with the whole UPR front suspension. 0 issues.
and have used their suspension on 3 prev cars with no issues.
Cant wait to see if all wrapped up. looks amazing so far, OCD detail wise!
Your guy is good buddy!
Can he do Teal?
