2019+ Spoiler Replacement Gurney Screws

[That_Guy]

As soon as I get my long screws, you pay the shipping for a set of my short screws and we’ll call it good.

That would be amazing. Happy to do more than that, even.

This is weird. I took one of my screws out for the hell of it. The thread length on my screws is 3/4". They are in there securely.
How long are the short screws.
Caballus.....I noticed you're in Europe. Is your measurement in inches or mm. Looks like your ruler is in mm. You might be throwing everyone off with your measurement.

Short ones are 10mm, long are 15mm if memory serves, I think there is a pic earlier in the thread.

Some guys in this thread are looking for 1 1/2" screws. 3/4" are the proper size for the flap.

It's in mm...using an American ruler

Edit: all discussions on page 1 & 2 were in metric. All items on the car are in metric as well--with the exception of @Epiphany's brake studs, but those are so awesome I never complained...

You are correct.

They may have thought 1.5 was inches not cm

Unfortunately the dealer sent me the wrong screws. They said the ford performance interface in the ford service department is a pain in the ass. In the meantime, these are the screws that they definitely are not!

I’ll be sure to post a part number as soon as I get the right ones. They promised they’d research and order Monday.

Ouch. The head on the correct screw will look exactly like the one on the short version. The only difference is length.

Also, best to measure in mm. Everything on the car is metric.

the shorts screws are not sold separate from the "swing" and the long screws are not sold separately from the gurney flap.

Remain vigilant in your quest Jon, I'm supposedly on the Ford Performance E-Mail list and if I get any information I'll
certainly post it. I noticed that you are in the Indianapolis area. Have you ever considered any "Club" track Instruction weekend
there in Indianapolis ? My son and I are still on schedule for Mid-Ohio May 9th & 10th. He mentioned Indianapolis to me and we're
going to check in to it.

Very nice, definitely keep me posted if you hear anything. Ford performance essentially told me to work it out with the ford dealer, but maybe you’ll have better luck.

Not sure what you mean by “club.” Is there a certain group you guys run with?

I typically hit putnam park in Indiana, but I haven’t done anything in Indy yet, my first two track days have been canceled so far and I’m not holding out hope for the next few months. I bet mid-ohio would be a blast. I definitely need to make it out there. Have you done any hpde before?

I’m waiting to hear back from my dealer, but it seems like the only way to get the screws is for them to just buy a complete spoiler. I’m not sure they are gonna do that, since they are already replacing my front lip and trim part that they nicked while putting on the strut top mounts and the rear trunk panel for a minor molding defect. They haven’t been quick to get back to me but I’m giving them time given the current situation.

I’m just so surprised that they don’t at least sell replacements for the original screws. These are parts visible on the outside of the car.

May be worth asking FP who makes the Swing and Gurney flap. If it's not Ford/FP, that may explain why they don't carry the OEM screws (yet). There may also be a way to reach out to the manufacturer if that is the case and FP is willing to provide the info. Long shot, but short of buying aftermarket fasteners (or the entire piece), that may be the only option.

Major bummer, just got an E-Mail from NORPCA and the spring event has been canceled for "C" & "D" classes as instructors
will not be allowed in the passenger seat. This was going to be my first event. Oh well , guess that we will sign up for the next one.
Guess that the Track Attack will be my first event....
