Thanks but the textured lower cover looks like the regular edge and not the sport one.
-
Can a mod please delete this thread but keep my other one? I don't know why I have 2 of the same threads. Thanks!!
-
Does anyone else know where I can bet the lower bumper cover for cheaper? Maybe aftermarket? $1000 for the lower cover is crazy!

Just found this site while on a different forum I follow. I am sure there are similar dealers, including the sponsor on this forum who can help you out.
Link to the forum sponsor selling parts at employee prices

Thanks for the links!

WOW! I had posted a reply to your original message you posted last night. You posted at 9:41PM and I had a reply with links showing where to find this part, including a Ford dealer sponsor on this forum who sells parts at employee prices at 9:51PM. Don't know how much quicker of a reply you could want.
If you go to the Main Topic Body Panels, Trim, etc and click on that, any posts started or replied to in that category will be listed. Your two posts are at the top right now, including the one I replied to last night.
This forum is a little bit unusual in that only the latest post is shown on the main board. That means if you post something, it will show on the main board. If someone else posts a new post in the same category, theirs is now shown on the main board, and yours is moved to the category (Body Panels, Trim, etc) in this case.
Learn how to use the forum and it's category's by not only checking the main board, but by clicking the sub category's for other posts.
Thank you for your post! I seen it earlier then it disappeared so that's why I replied! Thanks for the help.

I don't know if you are intentionally doubleposting, but I hope not A member has replied to your question in your other thread for this part:
http://www.fordedgeforum.com/topic/14198-edge-sport-lower-valence/?do=findComment&comment=109807
Nope I'm not double posting! I don't know how I have 2 post and 2 threads!

Can someone tell me where to get a lower front bumper valance for my wife's 2010 Edge sport? I ran into a pile of snow and backed up a ripped part of the lower valence off. I tried looking but only seem to see the regular valence and not the sport valence.

Nice! Any pics of the installed?
-
Great! Thanks again!!

Great thanks cellbine!! I'll be doing the 5k!! Do they have a tiny bit of blue in them? Also did you use any coupon for free shipping or anything from DDM? I'm going to order 2 sets of HIDs in the next week or 2 but DDM wants $20 shipping and I was just seeing if there was a coupon or anything you might of used. .
-
Ok thanks Kc! Do you have any pics or a video of the 5000k? I seen your video of the 6000k before and I'm just curious to see what the 5k looks like. I'm going to go with the DDM 5k does anyone know what build number I need for my headlights and fog lights for a 2010 Edge.
-
The stock fog lights are halogen. Halogens are typically 3200K in color having quite a bit of yellow in the light. 4000K - 4300K is the color of most factory OEM HID headlights. In order for the headlights to match the fogs you will need to change the bulbs in the fogs. There are three options. A Sylvania Silverstar type bulb, LED replacement bulb or an HID kit. Just be sure to get the same color temp as the headlights.
Ok thanks! I was actually trying to PM you before to ask you how you about you DDM tuning HIDs but I dont have enough post to PM anyone yet. But anyway how do you like you HIDs from DDM and are you still running the 6K? If so how do you like the 6k? Last if you can post some pics also that would be great!!
-
Ok great thanks! If you could get a few pics of the 6k and 5 k I would appreciate it!!
-
Looks great!!

Do you have the power lift gate and if so are they able to hook that up to the Viper alarm?

As soemone who just installed a HID kit, I wouldn't recommend the 6000k color either. Mine is an '11 with the projectors, but I'm not happy with the output and it is too blue for my liking. Not like the picures I saw online.<br />
<br />
I just installed yeterday and have already ordered new 5000k bulbs! If that doesn't work I'm going to switch to DDM.</p></blockquote>
Do you have pics of you 6000k HIDs or could you post pics in here and did you do the 35w or 55w?
-
Great thanks for the help! Yea I looked into the DTBL puddle lights but figured I would do it myself and save some money.
-
Ok thanks everyone for all the responses! If I do go with 5000k in my headlights and fogs should I just stick with the 35w since I will be doing the fogs as well or will the 55w be ok in both?
-
I'm looking to do some DDM tuning HIDs I'm my 2010 Edge Sport for the heads n fogs and have a few questions. I will be doing 6000k and was wondering should I do the 35w or 55w? Also what's the difference between the 2 besides the wattage and what watt is the standard HID? Next will I need a relay? I have HIDs I'm my 06 f150 and ended up needing a relay because of the auto on headlights.
-
Ok thanks! What should I do put a bead of super glue around the lens and also a bead of silicone too and then put them back together? Also what did you use to cut around the lens and the housing in order to separate them to access the bulb?

Sorry, haven't checked the boards for a while.<br />
<br />
First, just a list of tools needed: Flathead screwdriver, super glue, need nose pliers, nail polish (if you have some), clamp, and some type of cutting device. Some use a dremmel, I used this saw since I happen to have it already <a href='http://www.michaels.com/Revell-Razor-Saw-Set-With-Fine-Blade/kd3597,default,pd.html?cgid=products-kidsteachers-models-tools&start=6'>http://www.michaels.com/Revell-Razor-Saw-Set-With-Fine-Blade/kd3597,default,pd.html?cgid=products-kidsteachers-models-tools&start=6</a><br />
<br />
To remove from the mirror housing, stick the screwdriver in the small slot to depress the clip, then drop one end out, then the other.<br />
Then unclip the wires...these were tough for me as mine had a "punch" in them so they would not come apart easily...<br />
Once you have them out you can put nail polish along the edge where the clear lens meets the black housing.<br />
Then, start cutting along this joint<br />
<a href='http://www.fordedgeforum.com/index.php?app=core&module=attach§ion=attach&attach_rel_module=post&attach_id=5188'>puddle 2.JPG</a><br />
Here is a pic of it after I'm done cutting, you can see the separation<br />
<a href='http://www.fordedgeforum.com/index.php?app=core&module=attach§ion=attach&attach_rel_module=post&attach_id=5189'>puddle 1.JPG</a><br />
Once you feel you are sufficiently cut all the way around, stick a flathead screwdriver in the cut and gently twist, to pry the lens apart. I felt like I was going to break mine, and got a little crack noise when I did this, but it needed it to completely separate.<br />
When you have the lens out, use the pliers to pull the old bulb out.<br />
For me I needed to spread the prongs a little to get the new LED to fit as shown below using the pliers<br />
<a href='http://www.fordedgeforum.com/index.php?app=core&module=attach§ion=attach&attach_rel_module=post&attach_id=5190'>puddle 3.JPG</a><br />
Then pop in the new LED<br />
<a href='http://www.fordedgeforum.com/index.php?app=core&module=attach§ion=attach&attach_rel_module=post&attach_id=5191'>puddle 4.JPG</a><br />
<br />
Before applying the lens, go out the the car, plug in, and TEST IT!<br />
<br />
Now apply superglue to the lens, apply a good amount since you now kind of have a gap to fill, and clamp it for a good 15 minutes so it completely dries and you dont reinstall into the vehicle with wet glue.<br />
Then plug it in, double check functionality, then pop the unit back in, and enjoy the pretty new light.<br />
<br />
Sorry for the quick and dirty write up...wee morning hours of Christmas. Let me know if you have any questions.</p></blockquote>
Nice write up! I just ordered my LED bulbs and will be doing this when I get them! I have 2 questions. Why did you put the nail polish on before you started cutting and is super glue good to use to seal them back up or should I use silicone?
