Congradulations, it looks pretty cool, are the wheels 22 or 24's, they look nice. Can you post some better pictures when you get a chance, I would like to see how they painted the hood.

where is the vehicle burned, engine compartment, interior, front , rear, undercarriage? do you have any pics?

nice job on the photo but I think 07CRUSH is correct about the lower area being chrome.

that's too bad you wont be able to add the backup system. Ford doesnt make it easy to add options if they didn't come in the vehicle. (I found out when I had my Explorer and wanted to add the heated seats lol) So Reno's has a Edge, I might have to run out there and see whats left on it. Thanks for the info.

that's pretty cool, it's amazing how much things cost to repair these days.

Hi Rick, my Dad retired from Sharonville a couple of years ago (buy out) Can I ask what salvage yard you found the bumper, is it local? I haven't been able to find anythng in the area. Thanks.

congradulations. I hope you post your pics soon.

you should be able to check with a Ford dealer to see what the paint code is for there black accessorie grille to see if it is the same as you have or if its the metallic black.

sounds cool, what color did you order?

these should be the correct part numbers 9T4Z 13008C RIGHT list price $288.95 9T4Z 13008D LEFT list price $277.88

:mellow: it's cool, just have to get used to the new look

It was the one that Beechmont had for several months. I saw it there in the summer then I thought it was gone and then found it was in the show room for a whlie then it was back on the lot again. I saw it several times but didnt think of getting it until I was checking out the new SHO's and asked about the rebates on the Edge, they had very good rebates and I can get the Z plan through my Dad so it ended up getting it.

nice pics, I remember that storm, some parts of town got the hail damage, I did get any damage but it did hail for a few minutes.

wow, that sucks, what dealer did you use? U dont have to give there name, just Initials if you want. I have been through a few dealers in town with bad luck. Just want to know if it is one on my list of not to use lol.

You will have to remove the hood insulation to get to the nozzles, just carefully remove the round plastic clips and the insulation will come down, I just had mine off a couple of months ago when I had my nozzles painted but I didn't take any pics.

I would imagine you will need to get a puller, I changed my Ranger wheel and just rented a puller from autozone, it didnt cost anything. Make sure you disconnect the battery for a few minutes before you disconnect the air bag. You don't want the air bag to deploy but it should be safe to unplug once there is no power to the vehicle.

Nice pictures, do you have reflectors on the rear bumper? Are they made in the cover or added on to the cover? Sounds like you have some nice plans for your Edge. I am guessing the Kuga is about the size of the Escape sold here or might be a bit smaller, I just liked the Euro look they have. I am sure your Edge is much nicer.

The Edge is a nice vehicle, what kind of truck do you have?

I know of a few Explorer owners that used the Katzkin's and they were very happy. Ford sells them as an accessorie http://katzkin2.com/FORD/

They should fit, the upper front and rear bumper covers have the same part numbers for 07-09 on all models (including the 09 sport) so it looks like you would just have to get the lower covers. these should be the correct part numbers, my computer did not show the price, only part numbers Sport front lower cover part number 9T4Z 17D957 BPTM Sport rear lower cover part number 9T4Z 17K835 APTM I they would look awesome on the white sand.

Thanks, but you can thank Ford for this bodykit. I think they did a nice job on it.

I guess it would be strange to see a Edge in Germany, I do like the looks of the Kuga for a small suv (too bad they don't sell them in the USA) I like the color you picked, they are nice vehicles. Merry Christmas to you too !

My 03 Explorer had the opening rear glass, I didn't use it very often so I really don't miss it on the Edge.

My 09 is the same way, I don't think they have that feature.
