I've owned a few Toyota's ('08 and '11 Tundras, and now a '13 Tacoma) and all of the badging on body panels can be easily removed with no holes behind them, is that the same case with F150? Also, on the "sport" models, there are small fender flares shown, can those also be removed or are there holes behind them? Looking to get back into a fullsize, and the F150 made the short list.

Yes, there are a couple of threads here showing folks that have done just that...

My main concern is the F150 on the fenders and the small flares, which I know previously had holes behind them. The only thing I've seen people removing from the 2015 are the small ecoboost badges and bed side decals.

Sorry. I'm not taking mine off to answer your question.

There are definitely holes there and it looks like 4 of them on each fender. Check out this video at the 18:55 mark. A raw fender from a 2015 f150 gets passed around and you can clearly see the holes.

Thanks for the video! But it shows the exact opposite of what I was hoping, both the badge and the small flares have holes behind them. I can live with blacking out the badge, just not sure about those flares.

did a lot of searching but no one had a clear answer so thought I'd just bite the bullet & learn the hard way as I've wanted to wrap the hideous silver plastic tailgate piece since before I took deliver of my truck in early January.

You need to remove the screws on the inside of the tailgate & remove the panel (this is the easiest part). That'll give you access to all the clips along the top of the platinum plastic piece and the 2 screws that along with the clips hold the piece in place.

Once you remove all the clips and loosen the 2 screws that you access by removing the panel on the inside of tailgate the fun begins... Close the tailgate and then you have to remove all the clips along the bottom of the plastic platinum piece. To do that you have to pull the plastic piece out as far as you can and use some long thin pliers or 2 flat head screw drivers to pinch the clips.

That's about it. Huge pain to take off but very easy to put back on once it's wrapped. And in my opinion ford needs to start doing this at the factory because it looks so much better it's not even funny... Only reason for not doing this is if you have a silver platinum f150 because then it kind of blends in...

Can you take a picture from further back? This looks awesome and I am going to do this for sure! Nice work!
