Looks good! I'm a big fan of the blacked out look.

Those look awesome!

I just got my Badlands less than a week ago in the white. I want to black out the rear letters in the near future.

Any suggestions on how you put yours on so straight?

*Funny, get asked that a lot ... but UNFORTUNATELY I couldn't afford the Badlands but I really wanted the 2.0 engine but instead I settled for the color I wanted and a great price and home delivery. So ... it's a BASE MODEL BS ... and FORTUNATELY for me ALL lettering on the base models already comes in black . Here's a pic of my base model after my upgrades.

I totally get it. I only went with the Badlands because they gave me such a good deal on my trade that it was just worth it. Do you have a build list for the upgrades you've put on?

I saw a few people went with plastidip for blackout, so that may be an option.

You can purchase vinyl overlay letters from any number of places online. The secret to getting them on straight is use a lot of application fluid. What's that, you ask? Well, you can pay a lot of money for it over at Amazon, or you can just make you own. If you have a smaller size spray bottle just fill it up with water and add a bit of soap.

Thoroughly clean the surface, spray liberally with application fluid, then apply the letter overlay adhesive side down. If you've applied enough fluid you'll be able to slide the letter around until it's perfectly lined up. After that, use a squeegee to get all the bubbles out, then let it dry thoroughly--I would give it 48 hours--before washing your car.

I applied mine that way and they've stayed on without lifting for over a year.

You will find the1.5 will have more than adequate power on the freeway or off road.

My patriotic badge on the right side of the tail gate is a military banner with two stars to honor two of kids who are in the Navy. I think this is an appropriate way to balance out the blue oval that is on the left side of the tailgate.

Thanks for sending this. I keep forgetting that most of the stuff nowadays is vinyl and work well with the soapy water. I’ll keep that mind when I try to put them later this spring.

I agree, for the most part it does. I do like to use SPORT mode now and then ... makes it a bit better.

Is the flag oval an overlay or replacement emblem? Looks sharp.

The USA Flag is heavy aluminum that's overplayed with the vinyl blackout flag ... it's made slightly larger than the Ford badge and has 3M tape on the back ... so the original Ford stays there and the solid blackout flag goes directly on top. Easy and looks good!

Looks good I also blacked out my letters but I removed the SPORT and removed the side emblems.
