Fully operational active air dam taken off of a 2021 F150 Lariat. Asking $350 (does not include shipping). Will ship UPS, FedEx, or USPS (buyers choice).

Update: I removed the lower valence and bumper without removing the grille nor the upper plastic trim piece (above the bumper). 6 bolts and 2 plugs, you can drop the bumper right down. No lift needed.

Oh really? I just used it last week…did you try lowercase?

“RICARDOS” is the promo code I mentioned in the write up.

No error codes on DTC? Sounds like you did get lucky!

I agree with @bjl95mustang . I just went through this with my dealer. They refused to replace a defective component on the air dam, as it’s not covered under the $2500 extended warranty I paid for. They quoted me over $900 to fix it. So, I ripped it off and put together a full write up so others...

thanks! Always a little nerve racking when changing configurations in Forscan. The skid plate seems like it’ll take a little more effort, there’s a lot of talk about needing to remove the bumper, upper valence, and grill…I’m hoping I can just drop the bumper on the lift.

Trying to decide if I want to paint mine chrome to match the bumper. Did that thought cross your mind?

@Livnitup thanks for the quick reply! I saw your comment at the top of the sheet and made the change. Can say it worked! Greatly appreciate you managing this repository of information.

Feet of snow in the north is why I’m going the skid plate route. The air dam was packed with snow and ice for most of the winter. Hope this write up helps you in the future!

@antho apologies, was a typo. Both are 7E0- Based on the additional note on the sheet, regarding “ignore all but altered value”, I assume the result will be the same.

For the "disable active air dam" I see you have: 7E0-162-02 xxxx xxxx x1-- In another thread, I saw someone post: 7E0-162-02 XXXX XXXX 01XX Is this the same? Also, have you successfully implemented your parameters? Thanks for your help!

To consolidate/add to what’s in @M4X thread (link) and scattered across the forums. I just got done taking my active air dam and actuators off, laying under the truck...took about 45 minutes. This write-up is for 2021 Lariat. Tools you'll need: - 1/2 socket (to remove the bolts holding the...

Snow, ice, dirt, rocks, deer. Just about anything that is coming at the front end, which is why many rip it off.

No, unfortunately I didn’t. It eventually stopped flickering, I assume after things dried out and reset. It’s a lower priority item, since I rarely use it. I have the electrical add-on for my extended warranty so I’m sure at some point it will be addressed and I can follow up.
