I'd like to see the black chrome with the white light on a truck.

Hmmmm ....... if they're bright enough you might be able to use them for spot lighting deer along the roads at night

They look nice. I'll just to wait and see if they come out with one for the Platinum badge and I think I'll get sucked into getting a pair. I like the door jam ones they have but they appear to only be for the F250's.

I forgot to mention this....I got somewhat of a glimpse of what this might look like the other night on my way home. An 03 F150 pulled up next to me. He had those goofy (fake) stick-on inlet "air vents" on his front quarter panel. Behind it, he placed a blue LED so the light would emit out the opening.
If that looks ANYthing like these illuminated badges might look, I'll say 'no thanks'. At first I kinda liked the idea....but now I'm thinking it might look pretty cheesey.

There is always a right and wrong way to mod. Some of the best ideas can can be done poorly and look like crap or done cleanly and look amazing, the devil is in the details. Stick on fake vents never look good. I think true vented fenders are dope. All my stuff from recon has turned out very nice and I am really happy with there stuff. If I didn't have my fenders done and these were true vents I would do the black ones, or ptm them.

what would be a good deal is if they had them in full sets. for example, powerstroke, f350 sides and rear and a couple ford badges for front and rear. I dont know if that would be too much or if just the sides would be too little. I think i would get them for mine if they came with lariat on them like my stock ones

I agree. Most likely amber though because I have a feeling the law wouldn't take lightly to the red near the front of the truck.

That's a nice looking truck you got there. That would be a neat idea to wire them up with the signals. How hard were they to install? Like what is all involved to put them in? Is it worth it overall? Sorry for all the questions. lol.
