Default Off Road decal

Hello, this is my first post and during my purchasing process the forum has been very helpful. Tuesday, I traded an '03 F250 diesel for an '11 F150 ecoboost. I'm loving the truck so far but it's black with the Aluminum 20" wheels but has a goldish 4X4 off road decal...I'd love to swap it out for a silver one if they are available. I've searched a little on-line but no luck yet. Anyone have a link or a resource, I am looking for a real ford decal not a aftermarket one is possible.

Thanks,
Brian

The factory decals I peeled off my bed were silver. I read somewhere on here that they have a Ford part number and you can buy them, but are very expensive. Check with the parts counter at a dealer.

Thanks, I just saw the one on Ebay, it says they are die cut and officially licensed but the decals on mine have a clear background. Still for under 20 bucks it may be worth giving them a try.

The factory ones that were on my truck were silver text, transparent background.

They're pretty easy to remove, either wait for a warm day or use a hair dryer on low heat to weaken the adhesive and they peel right off. There may be a little adhesive residue left over but it's nothing that cant come off with a little elbow grease.

Try patriotdecals.com, they have a bunch of different fonts and designs to choose from.
