Default Any thoughts on the new race red??

I ordered a race red FX2 screw with Ecoboost 2 weeks ago. Can't wait to get it!!!! Would love to see some pictures like it.

Also thinking about having the dealer remove the FX2 stickers. Any thoughts?

Do whatever makes you happy. And, I don't let the dealer do jack to my truck unless I can't do it myself. It takes about 15 minutes to pull those stickers off. Just sayin...

Do you use a heat gun to remove them?

I took pictures of the 5.0 truck on the lot. Could have bought this one but decided to order the EB. Mine will look just like this one including the 20's.

Yeah, I would def get the grill color matched. Just paint the stock grey areas and will have great contrast to the black! I am partial to black so I think black steps and perhaps blackened 20" stock wheels....hmmm?

Either way the red sticks out so dont plan on sneaking up to anything!

I think it would be to much red in the front the darker grill goes well with the headlights

I really like the color. I went for the candy apple mostly because we already had 2 other bright Red trucks on the farm. It's always red trucks and green tractors I guess we are in a rut.
