Now that’s full circle

Good news. The new models that are produced from February/March don't have the inner fender hole anymore.

That is good news (if true). I'm not doubting you but this is the first I'm hearing about it.

Where'd you get this info from?

Oh really, where did you hear that, or see that?

I looked at DIYVan, but $US94 was a bit steep. So I had some 3mm black plastic sheet that I cut to size, heated and bent it into shape and secured it with marine adhesive and 4 self tapping screws.
I filled the actual hole with blocks of polystyrene, and the shields deflect debris and water away.
Not pretty, but only road kill will see it.

For English-speakers, the post was made by username "Unitracker" on that page. Machine-translated below:

Ford USA has recognized this problem of the holes in the wheel arch shells and will use the components with the perforated flap again from February 2025, so the Mustangs are currently being delivered with the closed wheel arch shells again and the production step is adjusted accordingly again.
The fact that there are Mustangs with open or closed wheel arch shells on the market so far is therefore normal, since the component was designed with the flap and is also manufactured in this way, but this was punched out at Ford's request in a certain period of time.
This means that all Mustangs are now delivered with closed holes again and the wheel arch shells with the closed holes are also available as a component for Ford dealers, so you can mount the original, completely closed wheel arch shells.

We'll see if this is true. It would be good for Ford to fix it, but sucks for us current owners

It would be nice to see this, if Ford has corrected this, I would be willing to purchase those two inner fender covers. The covers I made are doing a great job and look good, but it's still not what it should be.

Same. If Ford has this fixed then getting the parts as al la carte should only be a matter of time.

Emagine as a business owner, you provide a product that is deficient or defective only to correct it and have previous customers pay for the fix

Maybe someone can find one of these fresh builds on a local lot and either confirm or deny this news. I wonder if @roadpilot has seen this as he's the one that got to the bottom of the holes in the first place...

Almost as good as getting the customer to pay in advance...

There are some members that work at ford dealers, perhaps they can keep a lookout...

That is a good point about those working at dealers to keep an eye out. Hopefully someone can look into this for us
