Mach 1 fender flares

[Competition53]

Yup I got them. Oem Mach 1 fender flares. Took a month to get them in from my Ford dealer. Shout out to Zach @Peoria Ford here in Az for hooking me up.
I have a 15’ with a roush kit, gt500 rockers, and gt350 rear valance. So we will see what needs to be done for fitment. Bare with me as I will have to wait a few days to install them. My car has bowed out front fenders from the previous owner bagging the car with the wheels turned to one side (bastard) Im waiting on paintless dent removal to be completed. Until then I took some pics of the flares.

I'm eager to see if this works.

I've been waiting for these to be available for my 19 PP2. I'm not getting the right part when I search the number on that label. Do you have a Ford part number? That number returns an escape flare with a totally different number.

That’s interesting I didn’t even notice. Part number is VMR3Z-16268-A.
I used the site below at my Ford dealer and asked if he could match the price. Gave it to me for $287 and I paid no shipping.

As far as I’m seeing it. Looks like the 15-17 won’t be a direct fit. The back part of the flares will attach using existing push pins. The front part of the flares don’t line up at all.
My PP has those long air dams and the front of the flares need to attach to where half of the dams are.
Im determined to make this work. I’m going to order me some base model fender liners. Looks like those don’t have the cutouts for the air dams. Plan is to make appropriate holes with the new liners for the flares to attach to and cut out whatever is left for the air dams. We will see

As far as using them on a 18-21, I have a strong feeling they may be a direct fit. If anyone is in Az (phx area) and wants to confirm this. We can mach (no pun intended) them up to your car and see if all appropriate holes line up.

Those suckers are pricey!

I agree they are pricey but, more importantly, do they do anything? I wonder if they help keep the rock chipping down. Not sure if I would add them to my PP2.

As for fitting, I would think they would only fit models post refresh due to the front changes. Good luck making it work.

they hide the excess poke of putting PP2 rims or 19x11et24 on the front. Not uncommon for Camaro6 guys to use the Corvette GS flares for the same purpose on their 11 wide rims since the standard GT/Camaro don't have wide front fenders.

My only concern is ithese fender flares are made to line up with the bumper line of the Mach1 which might look awkward on a regular S550 due to where the front of the wheel fender flare abruptly stops to line up with the Mach 1 bumper line as you can see in the pic.

I was going to mention that but was going to wait until I put them on to see how awkward it looks. So far awkwardness is in its future but I’m trying to figure this out too.

How did it go? Were you able to put them onto your 15-17 mustang?

Do you think part of it could be the fact that you have a Roush front bumper?

I think it is because they changed the car during the 2018+ refresh and the MACH1 changes were made to connect to those components that they share in common.
