Question on DH Wheel Lip Molding

[Matty V]

Picked up my DH w/ HP yesterday. Inspection went great except for missing front lip Molding. Dealership said nothing like that arrived but if it ships separately will call me. There are people posting their cars and I notice that some have it, so assumed it came with Handling Package. Does someone know if it's supposed to be included or part number that I can pursue with Ford or Dealership? (Included pic of mine and one of many online that have it)

I don't have them either. It's probably there to protect the edge from what the wider tires kick up. As I have the standard tires, they fit nicely within the body of the car.

That's my thought, but I have the 310/315 tires. Who knows Fords thought process though...

Only a guess but this looks like it.

OP, they are supposed to be there for all handling pack cars. IIRC, they ship in the trunk along with the front splitter and are installed by the dealer. Your dealer should tell Ford that they’re missing and get a new pair shipped out.

You are amazing and thank you! I will get with them Monday. I thought something was off. This car is such a blast to drive!

Should be shipped in the trunk ..dealer suppose to instal them .. someone at the dealer probably stealing them and selling them online ..I would check on this

exactly this. every single handling package Dark Horse has the wheel lip moldings and the little diffusers behind the front wheels in the trunk, along with the gurney flap. it sounds like someone plans to sell them for their gain, and i recommend getting the sales manager or general manager involved

This is why I love this forum! You all are so helpful! I'm on it! I'm getting what I paid for.

Apart of the inspection before departing the factory is to have those lips 100% if you have the HP. Which you clearly do. The tech that did your pre-delivery inspection should of pointed it out but probably didn't care enough to speak up. Contact your sales guy about it if you haven't already it'll be an easier route to get em.

Everything for HP is shipped in the car. Front splitter, wheel lips, front wheel strakes. Are all supposed be installed by the dealer per PDI. Gurney flap is in the car too, but not required for dealer to install per PDI, but mine did. Toe hook and floor mats were also in the trunk. Check behind the front wheels to see is your strakes are missing too.

I got a wad of cash to throw at the company that makes these for GT's with performance package.

My dealership said they were not there and parts director was ordering them until I went to the trunk and handed them to her. They found the splitter, but not the fender trim….

Would you by chance have parts numbers for the L/R fender trim pieces? Picked up a DH without the handling package. I was able to source an OEM front splitter and just need to complete the look with said fender pieces. Any help is appreciated!!!
