Patriot Decals and Shorty Antenna

Just slapped on my hood stripes that i purchased from Patriot decals, and included in one of the pictures is my shorty antenna. I also have, waiting for install, are new FX4 decals, steering wheel, tires, and large ford emblem overlays. So far no complaints. Good looking products and fast shipping from Patriot. Enjoy

Hood stripe


Shorty antenna


"Right Turn" is the name of my boat on lake michigan, and also my handle on the fishing forums. A lot of my friends know me by this name so i thought it would be appropriate to put some custom flair to my F150.



All comments/questions/opinions welcome. I will post pictures of the other emblem overlays once i go back outside and install them as well. Thanks, and have a nice day.

Hmm, for some reason, I was expecting a "Left Turn" strip on the driver side of the hood after I saw the first pic.

Can't wait for the completed pix.

LOL @ left turn......that would have been funny.

Went back out and put on the rest of the overlays. So here are the pics.

Really blurry but you get the point. (wheel)


I missed dead center by just a nudge. you can see a little blue along the bottom right corner. But the left side isnt really hanging over any, i think the steering wheel overlay could have been just a touch bigger, IMO. Thats ok, no one else should be driving my truck anyways and it isnt that noticable.


Very impressed on the fitment of this overlay!! I was also impressed that i didnt get hardly any bubbles. The 3 smaller bubbles that i had got i used a needle and poked the bubble and squished the air out.

the only problem is that when traffic around you sees them, they wont get it.. oh well. guess you could call it an "inside joke"

Yea the shorty was a couple bucks cheaper off of ebay rather then their home website, either way nice little mod for a fair price. And no my reception has not been altered at all from the shorty.

Raptor --- you could give them a call and see if they will make you a set for your truck. They can customize anything and everything.
