very cool man. how long is the FX4 sticker on the bed? Patriot decals has quite a few sizes now. I don't know if the 09 stickers are larger than the 04-08, but I'm thinking of going with the same size as stock on my 05.

How hard was it to remove the old bed decal and put the new one on?

Simple, just heat it up and peel.

Took the truck through the car wash today and the damn FX4 decals started to peel in some spots so I ripped the dang thing off. This is the second time this has happened to me as my last custom decals started to peel off after a little time. Now Im not sure If I should just leave them off or if I should try one more time.

You need to let them cure for a week or so before applying heavy pressure like that water.

maybe because they were applied in cold weather? i have the ones you used to run, the FX4 outline decals and they haven't lifted yet. it was spring/summer when i put them on so maybe that's why?

ya, it was most likely my fault. I did wait for until it got to about 50 and I had a heater in the garage so I thought that would be warm enough. Cindy @ Patriotdecals(they have GREAT customer service!) is going to send me out another set and Im going to wait till it gets about 70 before I install them. I will than leave it out and let the sun hit on it for a few days and hopefuly the glue will adhere a little better than.

I'd also take a credit card on edge and press down firmly all over the sticker before you remove the wax paper.
