Anyone have some pictures of the newer badges on their 04-08? I know they look great on the newer trucks so I'm sure they look great on ours as well.

Wow SAM, truck looks B*tchin' dude, very nice.
Can I ask where did you get the New Body Style mirrors from? The mirror with the Crystal Mirror Reflector really looks great.

I have the updated mirror for OUR body styles [04-08] with the updated look to them with the orange mirror reflector. I wouldn't mind a pair of the new body ones on there though at all.

Thank you for the complement. That's not a reflector, they are amber led signals, 2012 style with the convex insert. el-cheepos from eBay here: http://www.ebay.com/itm/2012-F-150-D...929b03&vxp=mtr

It's hard to justify at first, then you put them on and everything changes!

You will need the 9L3Z-9942528-E for the tailgate $34.24 ea.....the other one does not have the alignment pins, also the tabs will have to be cut off for an 04. GO TO POST #13

I'm thinking that in 09 the flairside had the groove in the gate, where the 04 thru 08 was a flat gate, which used a badge with alignment pins. The 09 badge has tabs on each end and no alignment pins.

The 09 Flare Side shares the same box and tail gate(flat) with the 04-08's flare sides.....just the emblem is the new body style one....

The style side has had the groove in the tail gate since 09
