I just don't like how they screw up the tailgate with the logo. I don't like the Ford blue oval and never have.... but am stuck with it because they had to indent the gate for it. If body shops weren't so awful and made a nice hard factory paint job into a mess I would pay to blend the gate for it to be gone. Same up front... i like the grill... just take the emblem out. No different than Chevs big ugly bow ties. I might get the black overlays for them to calm them down a bit.

But I do admit... i am partial to the old emblems up above. They just look classy... something nothing really is anymore.

Nothing against Chevy - I just think the BowTies are Fugly.
The Ford emblems are in better taste and on better products.

Lol...... go to a GM site and many others will tell you how ugly the Ford blue oval is and how its on an inferior product too.... I don't care about any of that rubbish... GM doesn't pay me..... Ford doesn't pay me.... so no loyalty here. I actually like the Custom Truck Solutions PTM badges. That might do the trick

The body shop that replaced my bed panel screwed up, too. There was absolutely NO orange peel on anything they pained. Now I have to get the whole truck done to match.

Try chip resistance from gravel on your oem paint versus that tailgate. Your tailgate will be down to bare metal whereas the oem stuff will be chipped but still there. I have been down this road before many times. If I can nothing gets repainted unless it has too.

Don't like putting gravel in there. Makes too much of a mess. I use a trailer.

I like the "Ford" script.

a Chevy Bowtie or the Harley Bar & Shield...you know what they are w/o words.
