I'd snap that lame-o F150 on the KR badge off, and place it on the other side. Well, actually I'd put a nice F150 badge on the drivers side, with the big 'ol purdy KR tag on the other. That's the way it should have come from the factory. But that's just me.

Interesting thought but, not an option. The KR badge will stay intact. That's like desecrating in your mom's shoes... you just don't do it.

I've always thought the same thing about the new f150's tailgates
something just looks a bit off with nothing on the right side.

and then the PITA of trying to think of something that wont stand out too much, but will look stock. keeping it in the general shape of the other emblems. a V8 emblem may look a tad too small for that space, but it would be really cool if you could get some "TRITON 5.4L" or "5.4L TRITON V8" emblems made up. then it would end up about the same width as your KRF-150 logo and ford logo, so the back end would end up pretty symmetrical


or i say just shave the entire tailgate

Who let the Harley guy in!? LOL!

I like your idea on the TRITON V8 badge of some sort... I've found a custom emblem place (shown earlier from JP). The minimum order is 300... who wants to buy the other 299 of them!? LOL!

Geesh... this is just too darn difficult.

Maybe I just need a 'God is my Co-Pilot' or 'My Kid Made Straight A's' bumper sticker.

Oh yeah... shave it? Negative.

I did, however, note that you said 'yet'. Is that in route?

Too bad the dont make the kr f150 in the opposite direction then you KR would be on the outside of the gate on both sides. Or the get rid of the f150 and put two KR's on the gate.

There is always the old airnet and do away with the tailgate all together.lol
