Default mopar lip kit-saga continues

Since that other post was so long, thought I'd post this...
Finally got the parts in at my local dealer... I had just got the 2 sides and the front and rear...no spoiler

picked up 2 big ole boxes..was worried about the side skirts, wanted to make sure it came with both sides, which it did.... forgot to check the bigger box before leaving the dealer...
of course, I get home and open the big one and all that is there is the rear lip...no front. Take the big box all the way back to the dealer, and they have to reorder the front/rear. Oh well...gotta re-paint the sides anyway..

So maybe someone can back me up here, if you have either ordered these to be delivered or are picking up, you should get 3 boxes (if you didn't get the spoiler)...am I right?...or is the front and rear supposed to be in the one box? (didn't really see room for it..)

The box for the front/rear has a false bottom that is hard to notice...did you check the box carefully? When I picked up mine the person who gave me the kit only brought out the rear and I was like "Uhhh...theres supposed to be two pieces"...and then they were like "Uh...well...there was only one box"...then we went in and discovered the box had a false bottom and it was in there all along.

Hey Thanx!
I called back the dealer and had them re-check the box before they sent it back, and you are right...
Guy says there are 2 pieces in it... so back I go...
like I said, no major deal cuz I still have to repaint.....

yea you have to drill for everything. it shoudnt be that hard, just make sure you mark things off, and test fit multible times before you drill anything.

Yea, I feel real dumb... the one good thing is that my "local" Dodge dealer is like 2 blocks away!
The hard part was having to keep sneaking out and in with my wife's Caravan to carry that oversized box!
we're both off today!
...grabbed the instructions that come with each part and they look very good... very well explained, even the marking before drilling
