Black Out Starting

ok im starting to black my truck out like zeruin on here bc it just looks bad *** so here are some pics of my f150 badges im working on now and just waiting to dry to see the final outcome

Taping around them but use a lot more around if your going to do this i ended up using more around.


I used a primer for it first but zeruin said i prob didnt even need that but this is a picture after i primed it


Heres a pic after i layed a coat or two over it



will get more pics tomorrow after everything has completely dried


Next will be wheel wells, exhaust tips , wheels ,and tail lights

wet sanding is when you sand with wet sandpaper, usually only done with 800+ grit papers.. the water helps keep everything lubed and makes the sanding really smooth, sometimes it helps to add a drop of dish soap too

for the exhaust, if it's already welded on, just mask off the bottom bumper spray with it on

just get a glass of water and dip the sand paper into it and start sanding
then redip and sand ..ect

i used cardboard from a box, just cut one side of the box out, as a block between the exhaust and bumpers
just hold the cardboard in place and spray

Its spray paint and sand paper. Im not adding 100s of dollars into the truck. I am only doing it bc little things like that only make my truck look better and better so why not? Might even sell faster who knows?

trimble no worries man its all good. I know what you mean but im not making major changes im just trying to do little things that may help it sell.

plan on going with a f250 7.3 with atleast min of 12inch lift and 38 or 40s.
I have seen a couple bad looking 250s with a 16inch lift and 40s and 44s.
but atleast a 12inch

thanks modbargains

also here are the badges done.


There is a lot of little scuff looking marks its just from the wax that i missed when i was wiping it off
