Hey bud, Yeah for sure as soon as I get all the samples in I will start the process.

After a while of being delayed for various reasons the mirrors are finished. Turned out great, I had two sets sent for fitment. Pretty simple installation with the right tools. (long pick hook, torx set, plastic tab removal tool) Process took about 20 mins each side. Glass removal was the most...

Not sure why the pictures of the mirrors aren't on here after the forum update but here they are again. I will start a new thread with the video of the installation.

Yesssssss Brilliant....

Yeah its truly unbelievable how they operate...

Pretty sure when you order the parts from a dealership it goes directly to Ford per their supply chain data. That's why it took a few months to get put on. Ford reported that later. I ordered the mirror covers a few months ago. I'm sure it will pop up. Whether they audit quarterly or bi annually...

My cousin owns the dealership where I purchased mine. They have no clue that ford was doing this. Either did Bergeys Ford where my buddy has his account with. This is solely Fords doing. Think about it. Is Carfax going to reach out to one ford company? or Thousands of Ford dealerships? This is...

All Done... What a bunch of bullshit... They changed it to custom upgrade on the report... I am assuming I will be going through this again with the mirrors.

Yeah I agree I don't think anyone is seriously going to do that BUT people will, or worse, Think about if your wherever and someone snaps your VIN, then one day you have minor damage. If its a dealership they will have a much easier time then yourself having it removed. That was the premise of...

*UPDATE Out of the office lol.... That's fine Corey I'll just wait around for you and lose money... No Biggie.. 100% Thats what I mentioned earlier... This will be a nightmare for Carfax when people start doing this. Mall, ebay.. Sucks because some poor sole may have their vin harvested for...

So its been 6 days and crickets from carfax, sent them another email today.

VIN Number. We get the parts from a dealer warehouse through our shop.

YUP.... straight scumbags.... Start harvesting new truck vins lol... Start a list on here so no one buys a new truck with a tainted VIN.. No but dead serious thats what people will start doing across the board. This will turn into a nightmare for dealers and people. I don't think a...

Yup, exactly... same bullshit.... Its their MO Right.... I bet carfax wont have them jumping through hoops... I bet then that policy gets changed with Ford if it has any affect on their pockets I wouldn't trust those scumbags one iota...

Yeah social media is strong in that aspect. I may do that.. Going to wait for the response to my last email. Thanks

Brilliant... lol Yeah its going to be a mess when word gets out what they are doing.... I will personally never provide my VIN again. Yeah carfax really needs a class action against them. That sucks sorry. Another nightmare.... fuk sake this company is worthless

I will check into it. appreciate the info Thanks. No it was Ford automotive not the dealership. Its our shop we never knew they did this, lesson learned. The amount of parts that we order its best to provide VINS that way there is no confusion if its a right part or not, but this shit is crazy...

Went to the place where we ordered the parts from. I had them write me an email and got some more documentation. I will keep you posted. If this isn't acceptable documentation then I don't know what else to do. Maybe drive my truck through Coreys living room so then he will have a reason to list...

Yeah man for sure. just don't want anyone else getting railroaded. Short answer we gave them VIN, Long answer whenever you order parts its standard to give a vin in case there are small variations in the parts per the model of your car. That way there is no confusion on the parts ordered. LAST...

lol yeah f'ck that fox.... It's unbelievable the shit they get away with. That should be the avenue I take. Really should. Thanks

Watch what happens now, Carfax will have a class action suite at some point. Soon as people figure this issue out they will order parts and use a vehicles VIN from a listing on Ebay, from a mall parking lot, or stroll through a dealership and take a picture. Imagine that? You purchase a new...

I agree 100% but do I really want to spend money for this.. Just bullshit... Yeah I just have a problem with these automotive companies getting on board with something that has no merit to it. The burden should be on them to prove it is damage and not us to prove its not damage. I know a few...

Complete scumbags. Well, Carfax is. Ford is just doing something that hasn't been thought out too well and apparently other automotive manufactures are doing this is well, Jeep for sure. Some of you may know that I had my Hood vent and side vents made into carbon fiber. I ordered the original...

Hey bud sorry I don't have any Gen 1 stuff, I am a one man operation and this is like a side thing, but I'm starting to get more and more committed to it. There is definitely a set of forged carbon hood and vents on this thread somewhere. We did a raffle for them. @CHanly83 won and I'm sure he...

Amazingly done that series even if your not a race fan its a great show... Appreciate the compliments, glad everything worked out... Yeah as soon as I test fit these mirrors we'll be good to go... I will start the process... Yeah I think the interior would be pretty cool.. Just sucks because I...
