I am thinking about painting the Ford and Expedition logos black. Is there any kind of paint that you recommend? Can i paint directly over them or do i have to strip them with something first? What kind of 3M Tape do i use to reattach them....is there a specific type?

 

are you talking about the blue oval? or side badges? or both?

 

Sorry, probably just the expedition badges. I might buy the black ford logos (or is it possible to paint them black as well).

 

Hey guys, I blacked mine out shortly after I got my truck. I stripped the fender badges and tailgate badge and painted with automotive paint, cleared them and never had a problem! As far as the blue ovals are concerned, you will need to find an older say 1998 or older donar badge because Ford made the 1999 and newer badges one piece. I used Ford Econoline hood badges for my truck and just glued them back together, takes 2 to make a good one. Here is a picture of my tailgate SVT badge if it loads please load please load...........
