Cool What, Shaved Emblems?

You guessed it, I just got my emblems shaved and it came out pretty good and the best part is that it looks clean and I don't have to worry anymore about water seeping from the back after drying it after having it washed. I also installed my new third brake light and personally think that all the newer F150 trucks should come stock with this and the brake light is leds and are brighter than stock.

Not as much as you would expect, I got ahold of a local bodyshop guy and asked if he would do it for me on the side, he said he would and with everything said and done, only $450. When I went to the local bodyshop and got an estimate from them(business) that the guy who done it worked for, the business quoted me at $1287.64

Looks nice. Love the 3rd brake light ( **cough** same one i got **cough** ). . And i agree, it should come standard on F-150's.

The reason I didn't do the handles is because I'm gonna order the smooth paintable handles and tailgate handle and have them painted gloss black and that should really darken up the trucks view a bit more.

Looks very good. If I were you I'd pop off the trim on the top of the bed and bumper and paint it with Krylon to make it a deep black instead of the grey. I did it to mine and it turned out great.

Looks great. I seen your truck on cardomain and wanted to know the specs on your rims and tires. I thought I remember you had 35's but wanted to know the width, backspacing on your rims and how much trimming was involved.

Not too bad! Ford really wanted to make sure people following the F150 knew who made it... the stock emblem is HUGE!
