Here’s what I’ve been using and really like the location of the mount. It’s made by proclip. I routed the wire down behind the trim into the storage bin’s usb c plug
Thanks I got gorilla lug nuts, I’ve had them in the past and they hold up great. Exhaust tip wasn’t bad just need to scuff it up really good before painting.
Thanks overall nothing was too hard of an install. I looked up the price of the tow mirror glass ? and decided to take the mirrors off the truck and work on them at a table, they were easier to disassemble than I thought it was going to be
Before and after getting rid of some of the chrome on my 21 platinum. Raptor tail lights, powder coated rims, paint match fender vents, door handles, mirror skull cap, and the ford logo bar inside the raptor center caps,painted exhaust tip black, and swapped fx4 graphic for the grey one.
I did learn talking to different painters for quotes that you can’t even use the bumper for paint matching cause they are slightly off from the body since they are painted at a different factory. I even made sure to do light coats so it wasn’t sprayed too heavy.
I had paint protection film...
Local automotive paint shop. Had them mix it based on the paint code. As soon as I started spraying I knew it was too dark but hoped it would lighten up some. Even did a 2k clear on it but from what I read is the smoked quartz uses a tinted clear coat as well. I pick up the parts tomorrow...
Wow that looks really good. I’m leaving the f150 and platinum in the chrome for now since the grille and tailgate appliqué are chrome. Also have the small strip on the door that’s still chrome but hopefully this summer I’ll pull it and paint it black. I ended up having to get my painted...
Everything on the fender vent is plastic welded. I used a small drill bit to just break to the of the weld off on the other pieces. I’m not painting my f150 logo on it. You can pry the whole fender vent off or can get at it from inside the hood after you remove sound deadening insulation. I...
Yes the chrome delete has started….?. Getting door handles, fender badges, the silver center of the raptor center caps paint matched. Just got rims powder coated as well. I took a stab at trying to paint them myself but smoked quartz is tough out of a spray can. Ended up taking them to a...
Does anyone know what ford used for this gasket that lines the fender vent badge on the side with the red line? I need to replace mine after taking the badge apart for paint matching.
Does anyone know if the raptor rim center caps for the 2017-2020 F150's will fit 20' Platinum rims on a 21? Ford's part number is M1096KRA. I do see that they have a new part number for the 21-24 Raptors(ML3Z-1130-A) in all black but hoping I can use the older ones since the are cheaper and...
I’ve been here but just mostly lurking in the shadows and just reading. Swapping them for raptor tail lights. Trying dechrome my platinum some and got a nib pair of raptor taillights for a really good price. No ice fishing for me. I’ll fish till the water freezes over but ice scares the crap...
Switching from platinum led tail lights to raptor. Wanted to confirm in the bcm I need to change 726-43-01 last numbers to 04xx and on 726-43-02 to 0401 01xx xxxx.
Getting this grinding soundfrom my front driver side wheel well. I took it in to service and they could not reproduce. I had the Tech ride along with me to try and get it to make the noise and still cannot get it to reproduce the sound. However, the tech told me that if I bring it back in...
I did find this video showing our newer gen trucks from ford so I would agree with @Aron that it will alert you when the trailer sway control kicks in. I have turned mine off in the past and did find out it will turn back on automatically every time you stop/start the truck again. I did ask in...
