You got a good eye… I think ford machining made it look like a jeep, now all gray changes it completely ++++
What is BG? Couldn't think of that brand name.
BG Syncro Shift II
They make some great products.
So, I must have one of the first 2025 7MT produced. It was registered as a Ford fleet vehicle with 10 miles on 4/18. Carfax shows that it was shipped to original dealer on 3/14 and the window sticker says it was invoiced 4/16 - but, I can’t find the blend date on my window sticker.

Ford drove it 8,225 miles in less than a month because they put it up for internal auction on 5/8 and it sold on 5/21 with 8,235 miles. I bought it on 9/29 with 8629 on the clock.
Wow. Right on. I wonder how many other 7MT were built before April 28. I noticed the "Place in Line" is 12/13. Am I wrong in saying there isn't a blend date code on that window sticker?
No, I don’t see one either
It’s a pretty reasonable price for a full body PPF, especially considering it’s covered by Ford’s 3/36 warranty
Good luck getting certain insurance carriers to pay for a proper repair in the event of an accident. And you won't get it back in the event of a total loss...but I digress.
That’s pretty on par with any quotes I’ve gotten from PPF installers. They’ve been between $3500-5500. The funny part is somewhere along the line they removed it. The dealership in CT that I bought it from received it the vehicle with it removed. As was the badges and the rear Bronco emblem. But, not the Ford logo. Strange. That saved me $5k. I’m interested in PPF, but don’t think I want Matte.
It’s a factory installed option, so I’m not sure why it would be an issue getting that replaced. But I suppose that’s a specific insurance company thing and a whole different conversation.
I was credited about $200 on a ~$5K option when they valued my F-Type. I should have put it on my Hagerty policy but I didn't want to be limited on miles per year...
I definitely understand it for maybe an Italian car, but not any American or Japanese car. Over 10% of the sticker price is hard to justify unless you specifically love the color. I thought about going with a purple to cover my white sporty car after I had it for a number of years just as a change, but it is hard to justify vs. the cost of a set of tires and 2 sets of brakes.
