My strakes were in the trunk as well. I didn't realize it at first and thought it was something else and almost threw them away. I ended up installing them myself a few months later. Easy install for the most part. Don't even need to jack the vehicle up.
I wanted to put them on myself but they're insisting on doing it. Thought it would be a fun little weekend project

That's what everyone's saying but only thing in my trunk was the tire inflator and my tow hook was in my glove box

I have the Premium GT with the 20" wheels, came with the tire inflator kit but no tow hook, are supposed to all get a tow hook?

I'll be honest; I wasn't really thrilled with my dealership, but seeing as how many people didn't have the strakes installed, I feel better about their PDI and service department since mine were installed. I would have had no idea they were missing since it wasn't until several months later that I even knew there was such a thing on the PP Mustangs.

Since the tow hook and strakes were in the same packaging in my car (dealer forgot to install my strakes as well so it was all sitting in plastic bags in my trunk), that suggests that some tech spotted the strakes so pulled them out to sell or place on his own Mustang, and then put the tow hook in the glove box.

Totally agree, very suspicious for the tow hook to be in the glove compartment, where everyone else's is in the trunk. Dealer won't do anything, wonder if a message to Ford CS will? They can't fix or address issues they don't know about.

I have a similar feeling of relief that the stealership I bought from didn’t put the strakes or fender flares, or license plate bracket on.. They didn’t even know what they were. Not sure I wanted to compel them to do it rather than pay the 7 bucks it cost me to get my plate bracket on. I’m sure there’s a helpful youtube video on the front fender flares.

They're telling me it's not included with the performance pack and only on the darkhorse so if I want them I have to purchase.

Can anyone honestly say that they notice a difference before and after installing driving this car on the street?

Probably not, I doubt it will make any difference it was just that I paid for it and didn't get it.

I'll know after Monday though

Street / highway driving, probably not. On a road course, by themselves, maybe, at least according to Ford Engineers.
These under body strakes, factory on GT Performance Packs and Dark Horse models, help generate more downforce and improve aerodynamics.

Better track performance. Engineered by Ford to improve the S650's performance on the track, these underbody strakes redirect the air flowing underneath your car and generate more downforce for better handling when racing. This upgrade is the perfect way to get improved performance at the track.

Engineered to increase downforce. According to the Mustang aerodynamicist Jonathan Gesek, the underbody strakes work hand in hand with the rocker shields and other underbody panels to create a low pressure zone underneath your Mustang. Air is directed outward along the rocker panels and across the belly pans to help draw the S650 closer to the ground with more downforce for better handling. As the air is being drawn outward, it also aids in moving air in the center of the car towards the rear, keeping airflow more even.
