hahaha, yeah I was just about to say the same thing
my last ride before my F150, I was going for the black on white theme
how long have you been running those headlights? how have they been holding up? no fogging up or anything? I've been thinking about getting a set and separating them, and painting the flat black to match the color of my truck, Royal Read
You've got a very nice looking truck there; good job so far!

Thanks, did them myself. The mirror is real dirty from masking the mirror with tape but Im gonna let them sit for a week then clean the mirrors.
I used...
High Performance Vinyl & Fabric Coating

They seriously have about every color you could wish for, I went with gloss black.
I worked with it before on a motorcycle seat actually and it worked wonders so knew it would work out.

Its 35% front 20% back (tx legal limit) got it done from Planet Ford dealership along with my spray in bedliner and custom leather all included for free (so I wouldnt buy from another dealership )
Tampawright - Thanks! I actually like the steps, think it gives it a different look. I like being unique lol. I eventually wanna get the motorized running boards that pop out though. I had a color changing 05 avalanche on 22's dropped 2/4 with 2 15" subs so not really trying to go the same route. Be there and done that. So trying to switch it up alittle bit. I will not be dropping it, ever. Its a company truck for my business also so trying to keep it alittle business looking (although 22's period dont help with that)
iamsuperbleeder - I just got the headlights about a week ago, maybe alittle more. My truck is only about 3-4 weeks old. But been holding up fine so far, no fog or problems yet just numerous compliments. Goodluck with the headlights id like to see some pics. Thanks man I appreciate still got plenty planned lol.

Thanks I appreciate it! Yea well theres plenty of them lol Im the same way I take a bunch of pics of my projects.
I sat there and peeled at whatever edge I could that came up the easiest (kind of annoying) and slowly pulled it off, which some of it, maybe all if your unlucky, will peel off in strips (only got one sticker to come off whole) Pick everything off, which I only recommmend your fingernails so you dont puncture the visors. I found that a blow dryer on low speed medium heat makes the adhesive stick less to the visors while peeling it off.
These are the products I used
Goo Gone & Turtle Wax (OXY Interior 1)
found it at walmart its an multi-purpose cleaner and stain remover
comes with the hard and soft brush which came in handy and helped get the job done.
Apply goo gone to the adhesive on your visors after the stickers are removed
scrub it in with a wash cloth and try to remove as much as possible. Then use the turtle wax foam and hard brush and scrub scrub scrub! Apply more foam and let it sit for about 5 mins. Use the wash cloth to scrub and the brushes included with the foam. I went back and forth with goo gone and the foam until you could see all the adhesive was gone. Then blow dry the visor or let it air dry, (I blow dried mine, while scrubbing with the brush and wash cloth to get it all completely off)
It really just takes a bunch of scrubbing and goo gone and foam, thats the trick.
Depends on if you care if there is an outline there or not but if your like me and dont want to see that either, scrub scrub scrub and scrub some more with the foam and brush and it will be all gone. If you dont care about an outline its really easy.
Hope this helps, if you have any questions just ask.
Not so great on writing this stuff up, I just do it lol.
Cheap and fairly easy to do, makes the inside look alot more luxurious (visors atleast) IMO
