What do you guys thinking about replacing the OEM FX4 decals with some black and DSG ones like these?

Thanks. Where did you end up buying from? I'm also looking for a new Ford tailgate emblem.

I bought mine from Tasca Ford by phone, it cost me $104 shipped. The part numbers for the emblems are:
9L3Z-9942528-E - 09 F150 Flareside Tailgate badge
9L3Z-16720-D - 09 F150/FX4 Emblem - RH Fender
9L3Z-16720-DB - 09 F150/FX4 Emblem - LH Fender

They have ones that say XL, XLT & Lariat as well. Make sure you get the flareside tailgate emblem because the styleside is not flat on the back. Good luck!

Looks great! I'd go with the Mickey Thompsons also.

If you really want to get decals I think those would look better than the OEM. If it were me though, I'd just take them off.

Thanks guys!

Well unfortunately my wifes Jeep Grand Cherokee pretty much bit the dust yesterday (terrible low end knock, caused by a bad wrist pin). So it's time to by a new car and longer wait for wheels and tires...
