Front fender extensions

Recommended Posts

So I bought the front fender extensions for my 2013 SE and installed them. My question is, do I have them installed correctly? The parts clearly have them labeled as LH and RH on the backside but I feel like something is still missing? And what's up with the hole on the extensions? I think these are standard on the SEL and up models so if anyone has a little time to look at theirs and maybe post up a pic to compare to mine that would be great. I just want to make sure they are installed correctly. Thanks for the help.

Your front lower air dam appears different than the one on my 2013 Limited. The spot where you have a hole is filled on mine with a push in retainer clip. It pushes into the lower part of the air dam from what I see. Your lower air dam appears the same as mine but I wonder if there is an additional piece added on the ends by the wheel well openings for the flaps to attach to? Like I said, mine has a push pin retainer in the hole, and it pushed into the lower air dam.

I did a little looking on a Ford parts wholesaler, and the only difference I can see is on the lower air dam. They call it a bumper valance panel, part number 17626 on their diagram. For an Edge equipped with 17" wheels, the price is $41.18 For the 18" or 20" wheels, the same part (17626) is $73.85 I'm thinking it is more expensive because it has the extra piece attached that the flaps attach to.

 

Really can't tell from the diagram they use, but that is the only difference I could find. I couldn't find the flaps themselves or the retainer pin.

I think you are missing some pieces off the lower valance like I explained. One is more expensive than the other one. One is for 17" wheels, one is for 18" and 20" wheels. There is nothing for the retainer pin to connect to from looking at your picture. It is just an open hole, nothing behind it for it to push into.

 

What size wheels do you have, 17"?
