He's got a PB album listed on shoforum.
2007 Ford Edge SEL, Powerstop F/R Brake Kit, TXT LED 6000K Lo & Hi Beams, W16W LED Reverse Bulbs, 3BSpec 2.5w Map Lights, 5W Cree rear dome lights, 5W Cree cargo light, DTBL LED Taillights

If tuned:  Take note of the strategy code as you return to stock (including 3 bar MAP to 2 bar MAP) -> take car in & get it serviced -> check strategy code when you get car back -> have tuner update your tune if the strategy code has changed -> reload tune -> ENJOY!

The link for Photo Bucket was embedded in the original thread. Here it is again.  Thanks Shodded

I would think a bad night at the Strip Club WOULD BE one that photos were embedded.

A Minor setback over the weekend  in that the Passengers front Banjo Bolt did not get a good seal so leaked under pressure.   Removed wheel, reset bolt and full pressure/leak test.  No further leaks noted both static and under pressure.   Re-bled entire brake system today and ops check normal.
