i have one, I had a piece of stainless CNC cut to cover platinum. It's currently being cromed to match. I am picking up on Friday. I will consider selling as I am trading in truck. Will not have use for it. PM I can send you pictures. Sorry OP to thread jack, I was curious to see if anyone had mounted yet to a XLT with pictures.

My vote is leave it like it is. Nice and subtle. Looks sweet.

How was the install on this? Thinking of getting one, but have never really installed a large vinyl graphic like this. Did you use a wet or dry application method? Any issues getting bubbles out?

I just put one on my truck last week. Was done in 25 minutes including prep work. Very easy when wet. I also added vinyl to my hood.
