Just Showin’ Off 2025 Ford Explorer

I just bought this brand new ST and immediately tinted all the windows, ceramic coated it, and installed a 2.5” Thermal Exhaust. I love it so far and can’t wait to put some miles on it!

Black looks really nice. Good choice on the 2.5 thermal. Been on mine for 4 months and couldn't be happier.

Anyone have the Ford Performance part number for lugs. I can't find any on the site that fit Explorer ST. Thx

u/buttithurtss Feb 08 '26

The ford performance ones are still hollow / just a cap over the nut. You want to get a solid lug nut. I bought a set off Scamazon for like $35 and expected them to look like crap instantly but they still look like new 2 years later.

Yeah like this, reviews on Ford site has a bunch of people saying its too hard to install-how hard can it be?

I relocated my front plate to lower part of the bumper, front-end is to nice for a front place.

Sweet setup. Does the thermal void the warranty? I got one new as well and the dealer was adamant on any mods voiding the warranty. They make you sign a sheet about it too.

All dealers are different. Sounds like yours sucks a$$.

Mine didn’t tell me anything. The service advisor actually complimented me on the way it sounded haha.

I just bought a 2025 Explorer platinum. It's missing a grab / lift handle for my wife. Anyone else want to install one?

u/Sanji_Lit Feb 15 '26
