Confucius say ,, Possibly or possibly not lol
 
I think Ram 1500 is Ram 1500 when it comes to wheel well liners and other standard body parts so I see no reason they would have made special ones for the 10. The specialized parts are the body cladding effects and hood etc that are definitely what makes a 10 a 10 - as for exterior. I'm sure the hood scoop insert for a 10 and a Daytona are the same but I have not looked.

It appears yours are AE and the other one is AI maybe some designation between left and right side .

Can I ask you to do me a favor since your 2005 is in perfect condition?
Can you sit down at the side of each tire and look up at in the 12 o’clock direction. About 3 inches inside the fender you will see the part number stamped on the wheel well. It is very visible and extremely easy to see, in fact the hardest part is standing back up ~lol. Tell me what your ending suffix is on both sides.
 
He may still be trying to stand back up!! Hahahaha!!

@VIPR PWR - don't forget to add the Red circles around the numbers so we can see them!!

It’s far from perfect !
 
Curious about the notary stamps and what the stand for .. Any Idea ?
 
That RH one looks like it's from 02??
 
ODD THAT THE LH only has two rows of embossed numbers and the RH has 4 rows!

The LH must be an original run
 
Wow! That is some good info there.
Strange the non-suffix is on the Drivers, and the AE is on the Passengers.
I was just at the junk yard yesterday and seen that they had non-suffix (as your) and thought it was really
weird to see. It was on a 2006 truck and now I wonder what the date is when your truck was made. If I were
a guessing man, I would say your was a late run for 2005?
My theory of the time stamp in the plastic has to be wrong. There is no way they kept 1000's of these in the
warehouse from a production run of 2002. Man, I thought I was onto something....
Now, I am going to get that non-suffix one I saw, because I know the ones I put on my truck are not anywhere near
the non-suffix one you have. If it's not perfect, then its 99% perfect, and they are only $10 each. Not sure what
the suffix is on the other side. I hope it's a AE.
Now you can see why it drives me crazy about that manual. My bet is Dodge obsoleted the old part number and put
the latest suffix number, since they couldn't get the original anymore. I wish that manual had a production date code
update chart to tell us when that manual was last updated.

@2005ViperRam - get those parts while you can!! My thinking is that Dodge used whatever parts they had for our trucks is they were "universal" to prior models.

Not the same, but my friend is restoring vintage HD motorcycle that was a special edition and many many of the parts are the same as prior parts going back even a decade or so prior to the manufacture date of the model being restored.

AND the same parts are used between different models too

Hope that made sense LOL

get those parts!
