. I really like how well the 2018 front bumper fits. 2015-17s never look like they're aligned quite right.

It's that extra trim piece that goes between the grill and the bumper. Like the "wider" look as opposed to the tombstone grill.

pretty sure there is an option in the menu to shut it off, not 100% if it's persistent. The trailer plug hack to kill the auto stop-start would take care of it though.

That helps the '18 MY but if one looks closely at the '15-'17 MY's Ford never got the bumper shaped like it should have been. The bumper was just plain bent/shaped wrong.
