XRsixtee Member 16 Member For: 22y 1m 5d Posted 11/08/08 09:02 AM Share Posted 11/08/08 09:02 AM Anyone else noticed that the new FG XR scuff plates really do scuff!! The ones on my BA XR6T were recessed in, whilst the new ones just stick on top and if a shoe hits them they scratch or even lift at the edge. For what they cost they are pretty poor. Also does anyone have a part number & cost for the carpet liner that attaches to the inside of the boot lid for the FG. I assume they make one for the G6T as the standard G series hasnt got the liner either. Cant seem to find any globe holders for footwell lights in the Fg doesnt appear to be like the old models. Anyone had any luck? Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/48547-fg-scuff-platesboot-lid-liner/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

XRsixtee Member 16 Member For: 22y 1m 5d Posted 17/08/08 03:50 AM Author Share Posted 17/08/08 03:50 AM Apologies on scuff plates - just finished cleaning the car and discovered there was a clear plastic protection strip over the plates, peel that off and scuffs gone - it was only protector lifting. Doh!!Secondly after having a BA XR6T for 5 years dont bag the FG until you have driven it - the power done low is awesome.

My new car is a marked improvement in all areas over the older models.As far as looks are concerned, people place too much emphasis on what they look like on the outside.How much of the exterior do you really look at when your driving anyway?Sorry, rant over, back on topic.I bought the boot lid liner from a dealer a couple of weeks ago. They don't come out on any of the Ford models. Only standard fare on the FPV's.You need to order 14 clips as well.I think I paid about $80-100 for the lot. Can't remember.Looks heaps better now and covers up the sound deadening material nicely.
