They were probably being made by the same vendor that made the 2014 Forester Wheel Arch Moldings ... :tango_face_surpriseWow, these things just disappeard. Our dealer is saying they can’t get them expect from a 3rd party. However, does anybody know why Subaru stopped making them?
Wheel arch moldings eventually were made though right? I will extremely disappointed if I can't get the molding eventually. I remember seeing it on a a couple of the Oregon test whicles that were out for reviewers, so here's to hoping they figure out whatever is causing the delayThey were probably being made by the same vendor that made the 2014 Forester Wheel Arch Moldings ... :tango_face_surprise
(That's another accessory that disappeared between announcement and release, in case you don't get my humor.)

My dealer said he could get it from 3rd party. I’m just not sure it will look the same. ?I wrote Subaru regarding the underguard about 10 days ago...with this questionWow, these things just disappeard.

From what information I could find you were offering a Front Bumper Underguard in chrome or satin (E551SXC000 (Touring Chrome) as a dealer installed option.....on the new Ascent....
Recently, in preparation for receipt of our pre-ordered vehicle VIN # 4S4WMARD........, I tried to locate the above mentioned item but couldn’t find any source....just an installation PDF file....
Could you be so kind as to advise as to the availability of this item and also provide me with any current update on the delivery of my vehicle....thanks

Did they offer the name of the 3rd Party? I have not come across any.My dealer said he could get it from 3rd party. I’m just not sure it will look the same. ?
I'd like to know too.Did they offer the name of the 3rd Party? I have not come across any.
No they didn’t. I will reach out and see if they will tell me and post it. He said the parts manager was able to locate it is all they told us.Did they offer the name of the 3rd Party?

My limited already has too much chrome for my taste.For those interested in this accessory, would you guys go ahead and pick up this satin version, or would you wait for the chrome version knowing it may never be available?
They're available again. Ordered it yesterday, got here this morning!I'd go satin.
So is this part available again now? or you just got a one-off randomly?
Will do, picking it up now and she should be matching Hueberger's price.let us know the cost of the under guard .. I'm interested as well.
I agree there needs to be something there. It completes the front end. I guess I was a raccoon in a previous life, I like the shineyness of chrome. Makes it look sparkly clean, lol.Satin is definitely my choice. I love the look on my 16 OB. The all black look on the bumper looks a bit naked to my eye.
Yep, that's another big reason I prefer the chrome.UGH, I want satin, but the chrome will go much better with all the chrome work around the grille and on the fog lights.
