Splash / Mud Guard issue

Recommended Posts

Just Picked up my Edge yesterday, not an ST, but Titanium w/ the Elite Package, but seems to have the same issue as ST owners.

 

First thing I do whenever I get a new car, is order Splash guards.  My place of employment is basically a construction site, always.  To prevent constant splash marks on the side, I always install guards.  I previously had 2 Escapes, and installed OEM guards quite easily.  Not so much with this particular edge.  Because of the Elite Package(20" rims, additional body color panels & chrome trim), the OEM flaps will not fit.  I actually installed the rear, took a step back, and realized something was off.  The rear seems to have the same issue ST's have(hence my posting here).  The front has the added issue of the chrome trim(see below pics).  The OEM guards will not fit at all really, can't get over that hump.  Fortunately, bought them through Amazon, and seller will have to accept return.  Using VIN #, fordparts site says they will fit.  Went to check out Husky and WeatherTech, they both specifically say, not for ST/Titanium Elite(good job Ford).

 

Has anybody had any luck with finding rears that fit.  Saw a post recommending some chines guards, probably wont help me with the front, but are cheap enough to not care.  Anybody have any ideas for the front?  Of course they are the most important to me.  Found these, which aren't molded and are rubber, but seem to not look cheap and might be able to get around my issues, the price though.....https://www.sharptruck.com/truck-hardware-gcr401k-0

 

Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
