i was curious how fogs and turn signals would fit.

what is off about the pp belly pan?

 

[David@Steeda]

Well, its not getting installed. Front bumper is off, all parts are swapped. I do not see how its going to work with the PP belly pan. The fitment of the fog light bezel and turn signal light leaves a lot to be desired. Two of the included screws actually poked out through the front of the bumper while mounting the lights. I had to remove the fog light tint because of the way everything sits, its not the same as factory so that didn't work. Needless to say, I'm not very happy right now. :(

As I mentioned when responding to your pm, if you're in need of troubleshooting the installation I can see if someone from our vehicles team can speak with you during normal business hours.

Guys, you know I like to be transparent. We have installed this fascia a good amount of times and if we weren't happy with the quality and fitment, we wouldn't sell it. And speaking of selling the fascia, this was never even in our original plans - we were going to offer it as strictly part of our Steeda serialized vehicles program. When we saw how many of you expressed interest, we worked hard to setup a means to offer it to retail - as you know we are in the final leg of that since once the boxes come in they will ship out to those who've ordered.

If something is wrong with the fascia for example upon receiving and opening the package, then of course we will rectify the situation. If something goes awry during installation, in all fairness the onus shouldn't fall on Steeda.

Honestly, we may end up just sticking to performance parts and the very popular race wing. Hope you guys have a great rest of your Sunday!

I've installed several of steedas parts on several people's cars... Everything on my own car in my own garage... I've had so many people come to me because they just can't do their installs or mess up their own.

I'm no pro, but I can say 100% that the quality of these products are top notch, and the customer service is even better. You can't blame Steeda for user install error. So many people have this fascia on the car with zero issues... Or any Steeda part for that matter.

I'm sorry David as like I said I was frustrated at the time. You did help me out by having it pulled for me on the weekend.

I will give a review after I speak with Steeda. But I was able to get the bumper mounted.

I'm not blaming all Steeda parts. This car has had more steeda parts that any of my last 3 mustangs combined and all went on no problem. Without being negative, its not user error as parts did not line up.

Let me ask you, how can so many people have this fascia when it hasn't even shipped yet?

Lets not continue this argument. It is possible I just got a bad fascia. It happens with EVERYTHING. But being the first customer, I had my review which I edited until I speak with Steeda during business hrs.

Bumper is mounted and LOOKS great. Once I get the car washed I will take some photos.

Look good!

 

[Khyber]

maybe it's the angle but looks like a gap at the fender on driver side. that black bracket inside may need to be shifted up some.

other than that. very nice!

how is the color match?

 

[DIB2015]

There is no black bracket any longer. It's removed and you drill a hole for 2 bolts. Not sure on color match yet. It literally took me all day and by the time I finished it was 6:30

 

[Khyber]

really no bracket... interesting.

I'm not going to jump to conclusions on this. Steeda is using this fascia on their own models- so, personally, I doubt there is going to be crazy fitment issues. Why would they make production that much more difficult for themselves?
This is still an aftermarket part, so it may take a little bit of finesse to get everything lined up just so. Every car has a tolerance for panel alignment, they're not all to the exact same specs. It's part of the "pay to play" that comes with modding a car. I have no worries about this... David and the rest of the Steeda team have my faith.

Just got the shipping notice, it will be here on Friday! I think I'm going to have my body shop do the install.
