Default K9Cop FX4 Black Build

Purchased a 2013 FX4 with everything but Navigation. Had the 8" Sync 2 Screen.

Anyway, I took delivery on Friday.... and since then have installed:
-Raptoid Bully Bar Grille
-SctX4 Tuner
-Took OFF the bed rails.
-Purchased complete interior and exterior LED package from Diode Dynamics
-Put a new camera in as the old one wasn't working. I even put a new wire harness in just to make sure that wasn't causing a problem.
-31st the spray in Bed Liner goes in.
- waiting on matte black ford camera emblem
-I Still NEED to get the F150 carpet super crew floor mats (anyone have some they want to get rid of?) my truck did not come with any.... I'm sure the former owner took out his weather tech or whatever he had mats.

First pics from dealership.






From today:

SHOULD I TAKE OFF FX4 lettering!?

I like how it flows with the red accents.... but I'm wondering if clean looks better.

Sweet! Nice truck and dog! Thank you for serving the public, very admirable.

Now, as with all things vinyl, remove that FX4 decal! LOL

You should do the matte black FX4 decals, would match up with the appearance package matte decals!

-Went ahead and made sure I changed out all wires for the rear emblem camera. For some reason the new Ford Camera is showing a picture upside down. So I just flipped the camera and adjusted the latch holder to hold camera. Functioning fine now.

-Installed new matte black truck emblem holder
-Plasti Dipped Ford Emblem with Red Ford Vinyl
-Removed FX4 Bed Decals

Think I need to remove eco boost emblem or get something that has black and red such as the 3.5 Twin Turbo Badge

First of all, I've used diode dynamics on the following cars I've owned:
2003 Hyundai Tiburon
2004 Gtv6 Hyundai Tiburon
2009 Wrx
2014 Lexus IS250
And now
2013 F150

I will never use anyone else.

Not all are installed as I've placed multiple orders... but here is what I have done so far to compliment the stock HID lights. Will try to install front and rear blinkers tomorrow along with finally connect the Raptoid Grille LEDs. Spray in Berliner is also tomorrow.
