I’m liking the fender flares, where did you get them? Did you have to use wheel spacers?
For my truck, no wheel spacers. Stock tires and wheels on the Lariat, ordered the hood scoop and fender flares directly from Ford Parts. I wanted both to look like it belonged on the truck by having them paint matched and clear coated gloss.

I did wheel spacers to make the wheels flush. Up front 1.5 and 2.0 in the back. Real truck has the flares

I believe he is referring to my truck.

You did a nice job with that! But the fact that your scoop is now glossy and your hood protector is matte now bothers my OCD! ;-)

I had the Dealer paint and install hood scoop on my Area 51 eco boost and within 2 miles from the dealer it flew off on the Interstate at the cost of the scoop and $493.50 for paint and install. Back to the dealer I went. any ideas on how to replace the scoop to prevent the same result?

Let me guess. The dealer claims it's your fault.

HPR owner. I presume you put the Maverick letters on the bug shield yourself? Are these the same size letters that usually go on the tail gate???

I did my install of the Hood Scoop. It states don’t drive the car for 24 hours. I didn’t drive it for 24 hours to let the sealant dry and have never had an issue.
