Yes it is Electric Blue, the rear fenders flares are getting close. Like I said had to take them to a custom shop to get them done. Just want to have everything done before I post the final pictures. I also have to figure out why my amp research running board on the passanger side doesnt retract all the way unless you help it. Though I really hope its completely done by Friday. Just been a never ending story when modding a vehilce.

You should not be having that type of problem with your AMP Research Running board; the boards are "plug and play" and but for drilling one hole on the rear on the Excursion, they bolt into factory holes on the bottom fin seam. I have them on both F-250 and Excursion and they work flawlessly.

Ok soo it finally done... I will go get pictures tonight and get them posted. Sorry for the long delay. The fenders took forever!!! Though they did them really cheap because of how long it took. Though they look amazing.
