Default Platinum tailgate abs inserts

I wanted to find blue but went with chrome and accents very nicely in the rear. Looks good with the platinum scheme also.

I'm on my phone so the screen is small - the pictures look the same (sans finger).

In the OP he said that he wanted blue but went with chrome so I don't think those are blue inserts.

If you zoom in on the after picture it looks like the letters have some depth to them rather than just being flat.

Better pictures would help out a lot.

I bought piano black but had them painted J7 to match my truck, along with the F150 emblem. The only "color" left on my truck is the small Ford oval on the tailgate. The front oval is PTM.

The ABS inserts held the paint well and didn't flake when I applied them. The shop did a good job.

You have to add a note when you check out on eBay. If you read the description he offers more colors.
