The AC-TG15FDMU is an Anderson Composites carbon fiber trunk lid built specifically for the 2015-2023 Ford Mustang, delivering the iconic carbon weave with up to 50% weight savings over the factory steel panel. Constructed from 3K 2x2 twill carbon fiber via a vacuum-infused wet layup, this decklid installs using your factory hinge bolts and latch hardware with no modification required. Up to 50% weight savings over the OEM steel panel translates directly into improved front-to-rear balance and power-to-weight ratio, the kind of gain that costs nothing in drivability and pays back every time the car moves.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does the AC-TG15FDMU preserve factory trunk release and latch function?
Yes. The decklid is built around the OEM latch and release geometry. Factory power trunk release, key fob function, and interior handle all operate normally with this lid installed.
Can I mount a factory or aftermarket spoiler on this trunk lid?
Yes. Anderson Composites preserves factory spoiler mounting provisions. OEM spoilers transfer directly, and Anderson Composites' own carbon spoilers are designed to pair with this trunk lid for a fully coordinated rear setup.
What actual weight savings can I expect?
Anderson Composites carbon fiber construction saves up to 50% over the factory steel panel. On most Mustang platforms the OEM steel decklid weighs between 20 and 40 pounds, so the reduction in high-mounted rear mass is meaningful for both handling balance and power-to-weight ratio.
Does this trunk lid work with my backup camera?
On vehicles where the backup camera is in the rear bumper or license plate area there is no conflict. On vehicles with a camera integrated into the factory trunk lid, verify the camera mounting location relative to the new lid before ordering.
Installation Instructions
- Open the factory trunk and support the vehicle on a level surface
- Disconnect any OEM trunk damper or strut if present

- Transfer latch, striker, and spoiler hardware from the OEM lid to the AC-TG15FDMU
- With a partner, bolt the new decklid to the hinges without final tightening
- Adjust hinge position for even gap on both sides and correct height flush with the body
- Tighten all hinge bolts to factory torque specification
- Test the latch, release, and spoiler function before returning the vehicle to service

Shop Anderson Composites hoods, fenders, decklids, splitters, spoilers, diffusers and exterior trim at Black Ops Auto Works. Compare carbon-fiber and fiberglass components by exact vehicle application, body configuration, finish and manufacturer part number. A similar appearance does not establish compatibility with another trim, bumper or body width. Hoods, Fenders and Replacement Panels Identify the exact hood or panel design, construction and finished surfaces before ordering. Single-sided and double-sided carbon construction differ, and a visible carbon finish is a different choice from a panel intended for paint. Check hinge and latch arrangements, hood-pin requirements, vent clearance, heat shielding and any factory components that must transfer. Compare stated weights for the exact part rather than assuming every composite panel offers the same reduction.
