Does police interceptor grille fit 2019 SHO?

Cool, man! This is great! One more thing I don't have to make black. Does the Ford the PI trans-cooler fit in our SHOs?

Wahhh. A pp sho should have it already

It does. This is taken directly from my thread.

First look for the 20 inch "flower" wheels. Most PP cars came with them. Look for the alcantara wrapped steering wheel, and pop the trunk and look for a spare tire. If you see a no spare tire, and tire pump instead, you most likely have a PP car. There are numerous other things like TC button, 3.16 final drive ratio, PTU cooler, trans cooler, upgraded pistons, better brake pads ect. If you still can't figure it out....God have mercy on you, go to the Ford Dealership and have them run an Oasis report.

I added that picture to my thread. Probably should have a couple of years ago right?

Lol. Its all what you said anyway. Just good to have a picture. Easier to remember a picture from ford vs an internet wizard

Read my post again, this time slowly, there is a link to a picture and I even put the post number so that you can scroll to it.

I believe that part is from the "non-chrome" option not the PI model.

Oh my God! I'm such an idiot! So you did! Thanks! That lower-grille actually looks pretty bad-*ss with the PI-grille. The louvers somehow look "right" with the PI-grille. And if it's shoving more air into the trans-cooler, even better!

Yeah, I liked the look of it and I liked not having to vinyl anything that I could get a chrome delete option, now if they just had that option for the windows and trunk we'd be in business!

Totally agree with avoiding vinyl if possible.

What is the reason for avoiding vinyl, longevity?

 

[luigisho]

yes.

I started to black out my window trim yesterday with 3M matte-black, vehicle-trim tape. I did my Marauder with it and the tape lasted several years; however, the old tape is difficult to remove. Other than removing the trim and powder-coating, how are the shops doing it the "right" way?

Other than getting a part that is able to have paint adhere or able to swap a plastic piece in from a police or other variant, I am not sure there is a right way.

I've seen more than enough, great from 10ft --and up close funky, to enjoy it much less than I did many years ago. Not as bad as plastidip but similar concept. Plastidip--I never see that hold up and look good up close.
I'm also not saying it can't be done. Just, I've seen enough that haven't held up that I am not a big fan. Personal preference.

Holy sh*t! It does? Thanks for the head's-up. Any idea what's required to remove the front bumper-cover? Just some screws and body-pins? I already have the PI-grille so I was planning to install it tomorrow when the car arrives. What level of difficulty would you say the bumper-cover removal is (and likelihood of damage in the process)?

Flat-black trim is okay—preferred, even. I plan to vinyl-wrap the car in matte-black.

It's a lot easier than it looks. There are a few 10mm bolts, some phillips screws holding it to the fender liners, and some plastic pop rivets. Then you need a flat screwdriver to release the locking tabs that attach the grille to the bumper cover. Somebody here posted a really good guide for doing it, but once you actually start it's self explanatory.

I have a PI grille on my 2016 sho
