    He was going to go with the BAP but the spray liner supposedly was a delayed item and at the time you could not remove it from the order.  So I added the sport package and LEDs separately. I just swapped out the two blue ovals, 6.7 power stroke, and lariats F250 emblems to black.  The only thing I would have liked to have got was the BAP LED headlights.  I like the 20” rims currently but want to do a lift and wider and taller tires so I’m not sure if I should keep them or go aftermarket. 

     

    I have the BAP LED headlight part number somewhere if you ever want it, they're a bit pricey though. I found it when I contemplated switching over to the sport package instead of thr BAP. I like the stock bap wheels but I planned from the beginning to lift and go aftermarket. I've managed to get my mirror caps and fender badges changed out so far, going to tackle the grill and ovals this weekend. So all the solid black bap pieces will be off then.

    Received the BW tow & stow hitch very impressed with the initial quality. Rated for GVRW 21,000 Pounds and 2,100 for the tongue weight. Comes in at 200 pounds less than the factory hitch sticker specs.

    This is the exact hitch I have been looking at. Just not sure of the drop I need until I get the truck put in the air next week. Like the stow feature while leaving it on the truck so my kid doesn't kill himself on it, or me for that matter ?.

    Sweet Truck!

     

     Out of curiosity, why did you order BAP if you are swapping out the grill, wheels, badges, ovals and caps? 

    I had always planned to lift and swap the wheels and tires out. I started out wanting to do blackout pieces but then a few months in I decided I wanted to do color and black pieces. It did get me the bedliner, leds plus the couple of other things that came with it. By that point I was price protected a good bit lower than what I could do dropping the package and building something similar minus the black pieces. They should be fairly easy to move so it should be ok.

    Confirm front wheel well liner part number

    I installed these this morning on our 22 F350, and they do indeed fit and fit well.  I also installed the extensions to cover the area behind the bumper.  Used my fordpass points at fairwayfordparts.net.  I did not receive the clips shown in the pictures above, but don't think it needs it.  I may see if I can get the clips at our local dealer the next time i'm in there.  I followed the directions found in the Amazon review of these parts and it went well.  I did reverse the order though and worked from back to front as I have mudflaps and wanted to insert the plastic liner in there first.  This solved the "flexing" at the back described in the instructions.  It went very easily, just take your time.  The main point, don't take out the small bolt around the wheelwell, just loosen them!  I didn't heat up the new liners, just installed them in the garage when it was raining this morning and 60 degrees.

     

    here are instructions:  

     

    These fit well and do the intended job of protecting the factory felt type product. I'm happy with the extra protection these provide.
    Mine came with no instructions, error or intended, I don't know. But here's what I did and it worked well. Had them both in, in about 1/2 hour. That's right, 1/2 hour.

    >Put them in the sun to heat them up and ease flexing them for installation.
    >These new wheel well skirts have one hole drilled into them, in a dimple in the mold. It matches up to one torx screw in a dimple in the front section of the stock wheel well. Remove this screw and save it. You will use it again shortly.
    >Loosen, but DO NOT completely remove, (you want just enough room to slip the new skirt between the felt liner and the aluminum body), the 5.5mm screws around the inner lip of the wheel well. And also the two at the back of the wheel well that hold on the small factory plastic guard.
    >Take your heated up new skirt and slip it over the tire and into the wheel well making sure the back sits above the shock tower.
    >Push in and up on the front portion to line up with the single screw that you removed in the dimple. Reinstall this factory screw lining it up with the screws hole, but just enough so the it is threaded correctly and won't come out. Do not tighten it.
    >Starting at the front, push the new liner in between the felt liner and the aluminum lip. Be careful, the body is aluminum! Don't man handle it. It takes a little finese and wiggling but it will fit behind the aluminum lip. Work your way, front to back, fully inserting the new liner into the gap. You'll see how it fits as you go.
    >At the very back and bottom of the lip, wear some gloves and flex the liners back edge up and into the gap between the plastic factory mud piece.
    >Double check that the inner lip is fully inserted front to back, and grip the inner edge of the new liner and pull it outward gently, fully seating the new liner into the gap.
    >Tighten all screws.

    This worked quickly and well for me, but I wore rubberized finger tip gloves. The cheap rubber over cloth type you get from the home stores.
    Initially, this install looked a bit difficult considering everything I've read about trying to flex these into place. The only real flexing into place - tough part is the rearmost bottom edge.

    Good luck.

     Good looking out. Brought my baby home yesterday so my plan was to attempt this today sometime along with a few other things. I'll be coming back to these instructions. ?

    Congrats on getting the truck!

     

    Which lift are you going with? 

    Thank you. I have the 4" BDS Radius Arm Lift with the Fox 2.0s, dual Fox steering stabilizers, adjustable front track bar and I went with the leaf spring kit instead of the 4.5" rear block.

    It was super quick.  The ones I purchased from Fairway came with two push pins and then I had a kit bought from Amazon that had the right size of push pins.  Unless I did something wrong that is all I used to install the two pieces.  

    That's where I got mine from and I have a kit that has an assortment of pins and whatnot. Good deal, thanks for the info.

    Good looking rig. Hoping to see mine in the next week, some similarities to yours. Not to derail but have the fender extensions along with many other things waiting. Curious how the install went with them.

    I ordered front wheel well liners on my 22 f450 

    Do the extension fit the 450 or not needed 

    Anyone know ?

    Not sure. Hope the fit my 22 F250. They weren't expensive so I bought them to test out when my truck arrives. Hopefully only another week or two.

    BTW, Fairway Ford will use your FordPass points for internet orders.  The front wheel liners, wheel liner extensions, and touchup paint with shipping were cheaper there than just the front wheel liners at my local dealers.  Have not seen invoice yet to confirm, but all seems good.

     

    I just bought front wheel well liners and the extensions from them, plus a few screws and such for something else. They arrived yesterday. $144.90 for front liners, $14.36 and $12.93 for the extensions. No idea why the two extensions are priced differently. Total with shipping for everything I got was $225.  Priced through Tasca as well, total was about $15 cheaper but their shipping was $368....no that's not a typo.

    On a positive note, I’m back to my original build schedule of 27 June (was moved to 18 July). However, the tracking link at the bottom of the email from Ford no longer works.  Anyone else have this issue? Maybe their site is down or it might be a problem with my order?  

    The link at the bottom of the email hasn't worked for me for a while. I just copy the vin now, go to the tracking page, input it and it pulls right up.

    BAP without spray in bed liner

    in F-Series SuperDuty Forum

    Posted

    I tried to get moved from the BAP to the BAP w/o bedliner a few times but it never would show up as an option for my dealer to do it. Thankfully I got scheduled about two weeks after the last time I tried and kept my price protection. Built and shipped so hopefully see it soon. Funny thing is since ordering it I have decided to move a different direction with my build... changing the grill, fender badges, ovals and wheels and tires. So half of the stuff in the bap package I'm not even using?‍♂️... but shouldn't be hard to move them and still got some of the other stuff I would added anyway out of it. Maybe yours will ship out soon.

    Thanks for the info. My modules populated yesterday and I can't stop looking at them. Congratulations on your rig shipping. Hopefully you see it soon. ?

    Oh yea, thats a good feeling to finally see them show up. Suppose to be here beginning to mid June. Left Kentucky headed for Georgia and arrived either yesterday or today. Should be in SC tomorrow and I guess going to take 2-3 weeks to get to Charlotte from there. Should be in time for vacation so I can't complain.

    Longtime follower and lurker. I've gotten so much from the site and has kept me calm over the last 9 months. I received my modules yesterday. Only the ecm are showing up. Should the PCM ones show up also? Thank you for any input. 

     

    2022 F250 CC Platti carbonized grew tremor. 5WP, bed liner, winch, ordered 8/22/21. 

     

    Mine has been built and shipped and only ever showed bce modules. I should have responded to you in my above post since it was dealing with the as-built modules but I saw it to late.

    How do you check the modules and what is it - first time ever ordering a new vehicle so all this is new to me.  Probably wasn't the best time

     

    Thanks

     

    As built modules are like code parameters for functions in the truck. If you see others talking about changing things using forscan(disabling double honk, bambi mode, tire size, etc) these are the codes that are being changed. If you go to https://www.motorcraftservice.com/Home/SetCountry?returnUrl=%2FAsBuilt and type in you vin it will take you to a new screen. It will usually show like a G under the BCE modules. Eventually it there will be lines and lines of code that populate under it. That's usually an indication that you're pretty close to finished. My codes showed up Friday afternoon and received by built email Sat evening. I'm pretty new to it all but that's how I understood it all. Someone can chime in if I misspoke on something.
