Maybe seeing about getting the rims powdercoated/painted somehow...thinking gray or black.

did you pull the emblems off, or just mask the truck off and spray while still on the truck?

I just masked the area off with blue painters tape and newspaper.

Here's my 2011 Stirling Grey Platinum Ecoboost. 20" wheels, 5.5' bed, 3.73 rear axle ratio.

Best truck I've ever owned! Best vehicle I've ever owned! Love the color!

Sorry about the strange pictures. The last three were taken for another thread.

Great thread! Kinda like a scavenger hunt for pictures of your F150 in different situations. You guys should check it out.

what did you do for the area in the middle of the "0"? did you actually figure out a way to get that properly masked off, or just paint it?

The great thing about sterling gray is that it hides dirt well. I had a 2000 platinum (sterling gray) Ranger which ALWAYS looked clean, even though I rarely washed it. I traded it in this week for a 2012 F 150 and of course I got one in sterling gray!
