2020 GT500 Exposed Carbon Fiber Instrument Panel

[Oceanite]

I tried searching through the threads and I found a post under the GT350 section about this but I just wanted to ask you all. I went into place my order and selected the FPB color. We went through and selected the options and that was that. About a 2 days later, I get a call from the dealership and they let me know that the FPB color and the Exposed Carbon Fiber Instrument Panel are conflicting options. I was skeptical and decided to call Ford directly. They told me that as far as Ford was concerned there should't be any conflict. I decided to give the dealership a visit and try to straighten out the issue. They didn't clarify any more about the car. I had already given them the deposit and was told I could either pick another color and get the option of keep the color and lose the option but that the deposit would not come back to me. I chose the color as I figured it would be easier to buy the trim piece and install it after myself. I began to look into it and realized that this is going to be quite expensive. What I was hoping someone could clarify is the parts numbers, as I've been told that the factory setup is only 3 parts. I intend to go the OEM route, I know this is more expensive. If you've done something like this, please let me know how it went for you.

The dealership is 100% wrong.

Maybe they are confusing it with the carbon fiber track pack option??

The carbon fiber instrument panel can be ordered with all 11 colors on the base car and comes standard on the CFTP cars. You dealer doesn't know what he is talking about.

Print this out and show him.

The dealership is messing this up for sure. There should be zero issues with those option.

Thank You. I did originally think that maybe we were getting confused for the track package, but we cleared that issue up. I am going to take this and see what they have to say.

I have the FPB with the carbon fiber dash combo. There were no conflicting options.

I am convinced they are trying to add the CFTP (carbon fiber track pack - $18,500 option), not the CFIP (carbon fiber instrument panel - $1,000 option). Here are pictures of my FPB "Base" GT500 with the CFIP

Agreed. While I have a different color ordered it is clearly an option for 1,000. I think since I blew 10k on painted stripes I might go all in!
