I just bought some of the door handle inserts from horsepower1 and I didn't notice any tailgate panels on there. Pretty sure I went through the whole store. I'm not looking for one but if I happen to see one I'll try to remember to post here.

Sorry brother, your gonna be out of luck on this one. I own a 331 and recently found out that Saleen doesnt even have any of the tailgate plaques right now. Its gonna be a while (if ever) before they produce anymore Im told. If you stumble across one you better grab it because you probably wont find another.

Good luck dealing with Saleen...if the company is anything like it was 4-5 years ago when I was working on a mustang you'll find yourself never wanting another saleen part in your life.....One of the worst companies I have ever dealt with and products to boot....

yeah, they went through a really bad period when Steve was leaving the company and suing over MJ aquisitions being able to continue using his name on their products. Since that time Saleen Performance vehicles has taken over the company and during the 2 years that I have owned my truck I have had nothing but a good experience dealing with them on the one occassion I needed their help with something. They couldnt have been more accommodating to me. But I am aware of the issues people had during the transition of the company....fortunately I wasnt a Saleen owner at that time so I didnt have to deal with that head ache. They are bending over backwards these days to help owners though. (from personal experience)

Thanks, so far in 2 years of ownership I havent "needed" anything but all the extra parts that I've been buying/storing for "just in case" ..I havent had any trouble getting at all. The tailgate applique is the only S331 part they dont currently have in stock.

It was so bad that I actually had a guy quite over the issue with some of the body parts I got from them...I have pictures of some of the Urathane parts they sent me...I've seen cheap ebay fiberglass kits that looked better. Went thru 3 spoilers and finally said forget it. The guy I dealt with had enough of their quality control issues that he left the company.

Always liked their products...just would rather go with Steeda or Roush over Saleen now. Never had a proble with either of those companies.

I bought one straight from Saleen about 2 years ago. Ordered it over the phone, and it was shipped in a couple of weeks, no problems at all. If I recall correctly, it was $179 plus shipping (don't remember that amount, but wasn't bad). You have to take off your emblems and drill holes in the tailgate to install it, but it was worth it; looks damn good. Call Saleen parts department...good luck.

Good Luck; I've been looking for one since 2007. That's the first thing that I've wanted for my truck, and I've yet to find one. As stated before if you're lucky enough to find one grab it while you can.
