Factory Engine Cover $$$$$$$$$
If I order W520411-S437, will I get 4 nuts or will the bag be opened and I get only 1 nut? The price of this part # indiciates only 1 nut.
Is it stainless steel? Or will it rust over time?

I sell the Hardware per Piece. If you Buy at a Local Dealer unless they stock them they will most likely sell you X4 Which would be a Pack. I do not believe you will have any Rust Issues.

Mine came with this cover due to the appearance package I ordered with it. I have no rubbing issues at all. I believe however Ford pulled a fast one and did something to the hood to clear it.
You can get strut tower braces from Steeda but you have to use the V6 brace and not the GT braces for 2007 models. They state that it is because of the cover and that the one made for V6s clears it.
I am not sure if that would apply to a 2005-2006 with this cover added on however.
Sorry if this was posted before but this post got an insane amount of responses and I'm lazy .

BMR is now offering a brace that fits over the engine cover, and yes this is a must have upgrade I just painted mine to body color, will see it soon. my brace should be here monday, so I will post some pics next week.
I have one sitting in my garage. It was part of of the GT AP and had to come off when Dealer installed my FR3 Pack. So, the plenum has been on the car 5 miles. I guess I have to put it on EBay. I also have the whole GT Suspension Pack. Struts, swaybars and springs, GT 5-Speed manual chrome tip mufflers too, brand new sitting in my garage. Any Idea where I could sell'em.

My hood liner was just beginnig to sag and rub on the cover so I removed the hood liner and installed 2 sided foam tape and adhered the liner to the hood in the centre to keep it from sagging seems all well so far.
KC do you still have these available? I looked in the hot sheets you sent me but didnt see a price listed. I also emailed you about 2 weeks ago but never got a response. Whats the word on these shipped with the studs/nuts to 78613? Thanks.

FYI,
These Had a Big Price Jump. There are Still Some Floating Around on Ebay For Cheap. Blue Oval Industries Must have bought a Bunch at the old Price. Might want to Grab One Now if you want to Save a buck. No Sense in me trying to Sell at the Moment as I have to Pay more than they are selling them for! Just a Heads up For Ya!

Ahhh what the heck - ordered. I was going to hold off on any under hood and performance mods because I know once I start - it's like opening a never ending Pandora's box of spending. ...but it's hard to pass up a good deal.
