Ride looks amazing!!! I was very close to getting those same wheels and leaving them silver since i have a silver ex but the wife was not fond of the idea at the time.
Now i'm returning another set of wheels i bought and getting "Silver" lol, TSW Interlagos.
All of a sudden now she likes the idea of silver, haha.
Hahahaha
My wife wouldn't let me buy her a new car this week because she didn't like the "look" of the air vents on the interior....
So instead, I have buying out her current lease..which is the 2011 model of the same car.
Oh well... Saved me some money

Air vents can be a big distraction, in looks & functionality.  Sad to say, I do understand where your wife is coming from, BMC!

Anxious for the pics.  I also love those performancepedals you found!... they don't list the 2013 SHO in the ordering though.   :wounded:
I'd have them and the foot rest in a heartbeat!

I contacted performance pedals (http://www.performancepedals.com/fordpedals/fordtauruspedals.html) 'cuz I really like them. Rick responded in about 8 hours, pretty good (I contacted them about 10pm MST). For the Taurus the sets are 4 piece including the left side foot rest. They even do a heel rest.  I love the black powder-coated grid with polished countersinks! Here's the response:

Hi Rick,
I have a 2013 Taurus SHO with automatic transmission.

I am interested in purchasing a 4 piece pedal set in Black Anodized grid with silver countersinks. I don't see it listed on the site. Do you offer this model and if so, is there a matching emergency brake pedals.
Thanks,
Tom

Tom,
 
We have not done the new Taurus.
 
Attached is a measurement guide.  If you would like to take a bunch of pics and
do the measurements, we can look at making them
 
Regards
Chip

They sent detailed instructions on how to measure with pics.  I will be doing this so they can develop them and ordering a set! :thumb:  Hope it doesn't take too long... :whistle:

They offer pedals for most ford cars and trucks if anyone else is interested. Even appeal to old farts like me...  :wheelchair:

Thanks to BMC for making the impulse buy and finding them!!  :bow:
