Blacking out my FX4

The plan is to have everything red and black on my truck. I'm starting with the emblems. Here is a pick of what we all see and what I did. I just taped off the emblem real well and painted it with some Krylon fusion black fusion spray paint. Then I found the red F-150 decal for $3.00. Next step is getting some black XD Misfit rims at some point.







What do ya think??

Well sometime has passed and I finally got the XD Misfits that I was looking at. They're 18x9 with 0 offset. Wrapped them in some Nitto Terra Grapplers LT285/65 r18. Only thing left to do is change out the headlights and Tail lights to something darker.

I ended up ordering from Autoanything. Did a lot of internet searching for the best price and when I found one, they guarantee to price match so I went with them as I've ordered through them before with good results.

Love to see some customized blacking out going on. What I have seen; a lot of people mod the lights, windows and rims to black for your case. It looks nice, I would definitely consider doing the lights, it will really bring it all home. Private message me if you need help, I am a blackout expert.

Trying to black out my green f150 xlt 07 I got the taillights done trying to make it look like the one above with the black bumpers and nerf bar but don't know what exactly I should use to do it I've heard of using a soft bed liner so it's more durable or a plasty dip just for a cheap alternate is there any other way that looks really clean
