yeah, i tried searching youtube, but nothing on the 2018. I read up on the 2018 grille removal, but i hate dealing with those metal retaining clips.

nice! that looks really good!

i'm looking at the F-150 inserts as well. Looks like we're both going for that black and grey look. I just ordered new FX4 stickers to get rid of the red as well.

How hard was it to remove the tailgate emblem? I ordered some from joe1966fairlane on ebay and he told me to heat the tailgate emblem to loosen the adhesive backing then pry it loose to release the clips

Any updates on the progress? How hard was it to do the rear emblem? What's the process of the front one? I read another thread about how to remove the headlight for a 2018 and it included the grill removal....something i don't feel like dealing with but if its not that bad let me know! The emblems look great with your color scheme.

I just did my fender and tailgate emblems. On your tailgate, did you use any adhesive? I removed the previous adhesive but just popped in the new emblem.
