Hey folks. I picked up my car from PPF, ceramic and tint and I was provided pre-inspection photos of a lower panel just in front of the drivers side door was off a bit. It looks like there are clips and it popped back in and hope it stays in place, but is this a big issue or has anyone seen this on their car?

Almost looks like someone tried stepping on it or put pressure on it, normally those dont come apart unless the clips are broken or someone force the skirt down.

The dealer had sent me photos before I even came to look at the car and thankfully you can see that in the pictures before I took delivery. The dealership said to bring it to any Ford dealership that has a body shop and they can file a claim through Ford Fit & Finish Warranty. I pushed the panel back in and heard the clips pop back in so I will see if it will stay in or not. I am still going to take it in though.

My cf instrument panel has a gap when you open the door……its a ford…..not expecting perfection. I bought this car for the drivetrain and prestige, not supercar level of build.

But those exterior panels are terrible lol.

I like to disassemble things.
Pop the panel back in and move on. Another issue is always right around the corner anyway.
