Anything can be done by yourself, and most also can be paid for. You can tint your lights yourself or just buy harleys. Most people paint the badges themselves or you can just buy some. All up to you if you want to spend more or do it yourself.

Most use Krylon Fusion satin black. Its like $6 a can. There are a few write ups on how to do it if you search for it. . Or you can go to patriotdecals.com. They have decals that go over the ford ovals to make them back (what I plan to do very soon).

Also try editing your post when you want to add something if no one has posted after you. There is an edit button. And the button to the right of the button that says quote allows you to have multiple quotes in your post at once. Just trying to help you out a little, Welcome to the site.

Now if Patriot decals emails me back about the f150 full decal thing I will be able to buy my black Ford ovals and Black f150 decals.

BlackoutFX4 and Zeruin...
Your trucks look awesome. I have a 02 Black Supercrew, no lift. Wanting to possibly put lift on it. But, I want it to still fit in garage. So...
Do either one of you hvae lifts on your trucks? and
What is the overall height of your truck?
From ground to the heighest point (probably back of cab).
THANKS!!
