Tilt your head a little bit. Looks even to me. Parallel to the ground.

I meant which truck, but if you're referring to mine, it isn't. I used a tape line on the top of the factory emblem to keep it straight. The pinstripe curve makes the longer emblem look crooked for some reason.

Yea, I was looking for the bottom to be parallel to the two tone paint line below.

Does anyone know if you can remove the F-250 emblem off of that side cowl thing it sits on. I would really like to try that before i start looking into Billet Badges for new emblems.

Yeah my worry is buying a set and finding that they dont sit flush. I'm probably going to hit up a junk yard and see if they have one.

My only other option is doing what someone said here and just making a sort of F-150 Super Duty since i want to do the tailgate swap but then i will lose that wow factor when i show up with a real F-250 that looks like an F-150. Plus it will be even harder on my insurance people lol.

I always thought that calling it an F-150 Superduty would be cooler than an F-250 light duty. Changing the badges doesn't mean you have to change the insurance though lol.

yeah but sometimes you get that rookie that writes down F-150 then looks up the VIN and starts screaming stolen vehicle (saying this cause it happened once, took a while for the company to explain to the agent that Ford did make a truck like that)
