Update:

 

My son just told me that in order to get BL parts, a request to Lincoln must be completed with the owner's info., the VIN, etc.  If the info checks out, Lincoln will send the parts to the dealer.  No BL parts can be ordered for a non-BL car.

Not unlike what Buick did with the GNX in the '80's- you couldn't just trot down to the dealer and "upgrade" to GNX parts for your GN or T-Type if you couldn't prove you had a GNX.

Just started chrome deleting my MKZ with plastidip and plastidip glossifier. Got the rear end done but have to touch up the front in one spot. Will post more pictures when it’s complete

They're trying to maintain exclusivity for the BL editions.

Hence the old saying, "There's 10x more Cobras out there than Shelby ever built.". Harley does the same with some special models like the '03 Centennials and various SE, LEO and other special distinctive paint bikes. Should you lay one down, your dealer can obtain replacement parts like a saddlebag(s), tour pak and/or lids by submitting the VIN. Though a PITA at times, it does help maintain the perceived value of exclusive models.

All done with the plastidip. Purchasing some vinyl the chrome delete the window trim and side mirrors since it didn’t seem to hold onto the chrome very well, but here are some pics. Pretty happy with the outcome. I think it gives the car a completely different, sportier look.
