Tom:

I hate to disappoint you, but it looks like the de-content boys at Ford stole your cover. It's listed as a 2020 part in Fordparts.com; but, NOT as a 2021 part. They were trying to cut costs to compete with the new Tahoe/Suburban.

My 2020 does have it.

I am another 21 Expy purchaser with a naked engine bay. Your Ford Performance cover looks great under the hood. A lot better than the stock Expedition cover. Was it hard to trim off the passenger side to fit (what did you use)? Also, have you had any rubbing noises since you installed it? I would like to add the performance cover - just dont want to add any noises to it.

Thanks

John

John,

I trimmed it with my pocket knife it is soft foam with a rubbery coating on it. I have not noticed any noise you have all the attachment points on the intake so other than hitting some hoses on the passenger side it lines up perfectly and looks better than the stock one...

Thanks Tom

I just didnt want to cause more problems for myself trying to dress up the engine. It sounds pretty easy to deal with. I had a 2016 F150 Platinum with a cover that was as boring as the stock Expy one. I always felt underwhelmed when I opened the hood. It seemed out of character with the rest of the truck.

Thanks,

John

mine fit fine without any trimming... just saying.

Got it in . I had to order the pack of nuts separate. I was surprised that the cover is more foam like than plastic.

What is the part number for just the nuts or does anyone know the size and threads needed maybe they could be found at lowes? I just got the ford performance cover for my 2018 f150 2 weeks ago and a couple of days ago bought a new 2021 expedition and noticed it did not have an engine cover now im thinking of using this cover on it instead if I can find nuts. Has anyone had any issues with the ford performance cover on their expedition?

I just did the ford performance one because it looked better, but I did need to trim the passenger side back corner to make it fit

Just bought a 2021 Limited Max this week, and was really surprised when I opened the hood when we got home. Ordered the Ford Performance cover. I know the other one is cheaper, but I like the red on that one!

W520201-S450B is the part number listed with the cover on the Ford parts sites. It's all supposed to be here tomorrow, so I will let you know if I got the right thing.

Fits perfectly on my 2021. No trimming. Just slid it in the hooks on the back and tightened it down. And the correct nuts are W520201-S450B. I ordered it from Fairway Ford. Great service!

Thank you so much on Ford Expedition Forum. I ordered engine cover from Ford Performance (KR7Z-6A949-A) and Nuts (W520201-S450B). It fits perfectly my Expedition 2021.

With this cost cutting, I think in 10 years we will be paying extra for tires!

Some already are. It's become the norm to leave the spare out of a lot of crossovers, so you would have to pay extra if you wanted one.

Engine covers are often a "first year" item for Ford. The 2007 had a cover; 2008 and up did not. The 2020 has a cover; 2021 does not. Dressing them up for the press photos.

I just picked up my ‘21 last week. I opened the hood over the weekend and realized it’s missing the cover, too. I called the dealer today and they ordered me one, no charge [as it should be].
