Glad I found the post about reaching under the hood to undo the clips, I saw a YouTube video where they guy went in under the fender, way to much work!

Flipped the truck around to let the driver side heat up a bit, then I'll remove that one.
Bumper shelz also were shipped Tuesday, so those should be going on soon.




I too want to get black fender emblems however I am on the fence about the amazon ones for under 50 bucks Where are you getting good quality with tabs?

The oem black with red appearance package are 90 each. after market stuff only holds up a short period of tim . Gets to be a waste of money. Thanks

If you'd like some super high quality painted ones, contact MBullock with a PM. He's done fender badges and ovals for me on two different trucks, you won't find better quality anywhere. Here are the ones he did for my '20. Not the best photo.

I don't know what trim your truck is, but I'm selling a brand new set of those for a Lariat for $100 shipped. I was going to use them until I decided to buy the Blackout Package emblems.

I put some Amazon black and red fender emblems on a few months ago, they have held up well and seemed every bit as good as the OEM emblems. I'm about to replace them with all black ones with FX4 on it instead of XLT. I'll be removing the FX4 sticker on the rear fenders.

I got mine on Amazon, had a gift card to use, so bought these while I was ordering dog food. If they suck, I'll contact Mbullock.
These only have 6 reviews, but do have the tabs at least.

Mike uses all OEM ovals and badges, disassembles them, paints them, then reassembles. So your getting some pretty good stuff.

I've got some I'll put up again, it'll give you an idea at least. I don't have any right now of the fender badges other than the photo above. Everything is Rapid Red and Magnetic Metallic.

I'm making some of my own, I can try different colors to see how I like them and just swap out daily if I'd like. If interested PM me, free except shipping.






Example of clear letters (can also use green Frog tape if you prefer)

Solid colors of blue, green or black also available at no extra charge
