  1. ah im trying for a local sale for a while. it fits a ton of Fords.. F150s, Mustangs, Taurus, Flex, Edge, etc..
  2. ah, dont exist.. have to have something custom made.
  3. I guess you already seen the oem Ford rubber mats. I got them yesterday. I love em. They had dual hole also.
  4. ya i guess the more i drive my Sport, the more I realize how much i like the stock rims.. and i also realize that power isnt an issue. I only have 380 miles on it so far, but i did a quick test up to 90-100 for a few seconds on a private track and it goes just fine. i'm very pleased with my decision to spring for this better engine. the mileage is another issue, which i may just accept in order to keep lookin good. i ordered Weathertech window deflectors yesterday, so i'll add those in a week. they look especially good on white cars with the dark contrast. i got the darker tint version. no tape on the weathertechs, they slide into the channel. i had multiple sets on my jeeps.
  5. dont try to mask the existing problem. just keep at it until you find it.
  6. i was looking into a set of LED tails for my sport. all the imports ive had usually had a lot of choices. doesnt seem like many people make a straight drop-in LED tail for this 2011 Edge Sport.
  7. damn... i still havent opened my package.. lol. i guess given its rep around here i prob wont be able to sell it anyway. i wouldnt mind using it, i just dont want to have to carry around a key all the time..
  8. found it on ebay.dont know if im allowed to post ebay links.. but its this guy.. "fairfome" http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/11-2011-Edge-Genuine-Ford-OEM-Rear-Bumper-Protector-NEW-_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQhashZitem27bb2b24d7QQitemZ170643891415QQptZMotorsQ5fCarQ5fTruckQ5fPartsQ5fAccessories
  9. lol.. so youre complaining they wore out in 3 years? did you expect them to last 10? i'd replace them every couple years if i had to. not like theyre expensive.
  10. Floor mats are a good fit, came with the proper double peg design, but even better. There is a cap over the top to smooth out the look. The trunk mat is perfect, it will sit flatter with time. Really impressed with the bumper protector, its not thick plastic, its heavy material, much like my GTI sill protectors were. Its a pure stick on, and it aint coming off once you get your final layout. I had to lift both sides once or twice and work out the air pockets from the middle. It was REAL hard to pull up, but didnt hurt the paint or anything. Make sure you use alcohol on the area before sticking.
  11. thanks.. cuz i was trying to pull outward on my headlight knob which i read about somewhere.. it doesnt pull out.. so i guess i dont have it.
  12. damn, i have 2011 rubber oem mats arriving today.. i hope they are the right ones, after reading thru this thread..
  13. yup, i'd much rather see the rear bumper than not see it. gives you a really good idea if you are about to hit something.
  14. Something is wrong with the search btw.. i searched "fog" in titles only and zero threads came up. Instead of cluttering up the forum with a similar thread.. i got a dumb question about the "fogs". Are they fogs? Or just driving lamps? I have even been thru my owners manual, and I can't find anything that tells me how to turn on the "fog lamps". The obvious answer is no switch exists, but i want to make sure. Also, how do i know if I have the "auto" headlights feature. I can turn my headlamp switch to it, but how do i know if its working? (in daytime). Would it have been a separate option on my window sticker? Maybe i just don't have it, because I have a Sport.
  15. it pretty obvious to me, coming from German cars.. the back of the rear doors doesnt match well to the rear body lines. but its what you expect from American. It aint German quality, although its a lot better than it used to be.
  16. i saw a pic in one of my threads of something with a step bar. doesnt really look too bad to me. I gotta find out more about it. i found his pic.. untitled.bmp
  17. that doesn't look half bad dude. but your rims have the chrome ring which makes a big difference. I have had those window deflectors on my Jeeps, and loved them. Wasnt sure if they would wreck the look on an Edge. I can see now that they look pretty good, so i might buy those too.. to tell you the truth, i also like your step bar, where and how much? i might go black instead of chrome, but i dont want people stepping on my body kit.. nice Edge! i really need to see a SPORT with black rims to get a better idea. I'll keep searching..
  18. ya im not convinced to change them yet. The #1 most important thing is look, and i dont want to change to a wheel I personally dont think looks better. but a sport will look different with them than the pic i posted above.
  19. Maybe it doesnt look quite as good as i thought.. had to tell since the car isnt a Sport..
  20. I do like the 22" rims.. They are baller, especially to a guy like me who never liked big rims. But I'm not married to them, and I think I could gain noticable power and 2-3mpg improvement if i went to lighter weight 20's. I've always had a thing for the KMC Rockstars, which are very popular on the JK Jeeps. (2007-present, I have had 2 of these Jeeps) These rims are only >>>> Weight: 27.6lbs. <<<<<< http://www.tirerack.com/wheels/WheelCloseUpServlet?target=runWheelSearch&initialPartNumber=KM77528001742B&wheelMake=KMC&wheelModel=Rockstar+Car&wheelFinish=Black+Painted&showRear=no&autoMake=Ford&autoModel=Edge+Limited&autoYear=2011&autoModClar=FWD&filterFinish=All&filterSize=20&filterBrand=KMC&filterSpecial=false&filterNew=All&filterWeight=All&sort=Diameter I wish there was some way I could see if they look any good on my car? I don't really have a good side shot of my car yet for a good photoshop. I guess I would have to buy the rims, tires, TMPS kit, and a TPMS reset tool.. It would probably run my $2000 all in all.. So thats a lot of money to spend if I dont know if it will look any good. I am not a chrome grill type of guy, hence why i got the Sport trim. I really like my black grill. (But I also got it for the non-wood dash and shift paddles, and two tone leather seats..) IF I were to sell my 22" Sport rims/tires/TPMS for pickup only, think i'd have any chance of getting $2000 for the kit? They have 400 miles on them so far, brand new. Thanks for any tips, i dont want to make the mistake of getting rid of these and regretting it later, but I wouldnt mind even more power and slightly better mileage.
  21. You yourself right above said someone CAN put something in the tank. Which is the correct fact? Oh, thats a 2008 fact.. lol. Did the gas cap style change for 2011?
  22. naw, wouldnt even be worth returning.. i'd keep it or sell it. trying to decide if i want to deal with using it. peace of mind for people messing with your tank.
  23. Arrived today. Not sure i want to open it or use it.
  24. I wanted an interesting vehicle. I test drove the LTD and the Sport. The LTD was just way too boring for me, a real basic family car. (with some sweet options). The Sport was just a completely different car for me, something nice to look at. I would have regretted it forever if i had "settled" for the LTD. I may even swap down to 20" rims eventually, there are a few i like which i have seen on the Jeeps. I dont know if the difference in weight between 22" to 20" is even worth swapping tho.
