FX4 Decal

This dually I bought needed a rear fender. I was looking for the body stripe and FX4 decal; didn't quite find them on Ford.com but the prices I saw weren't cheap.

Any idea where to buy those items aftermarket? Hadn't occurred to me until I searched here, but I read some other guys taking their decals off. If I sell this truck, would that decal be a selling point? I could just take the other one off instead of paying $150 for a new one, or just have one. Most people wouldn't notice.

I bought some off eBay because the previous owner changed the fx4 stickers to some different factory 4x4 stickers at some point and they sucked didn't match the color of factory fx4 stickers at all even though they were supposed to be factory colors i didn't even put them on. I'd just take the other one off I found some on factory ones on eBay that were 100 bucks for the set but there's no way I was paying that much for 2 stickers. If you have a shop near you that makes custom stickers you could see what they could do. You can always print off the build sheet from ford Etis to prove its an fx4

I read that the decals come off easily with a hair drying or heat gun...I wonder if I could take the one off my old fender and put it on the new one?

I doubt that would work, even if you got the decal off in one piece it would more than likely be distorted from pulling on it.

I'd just pull the other decal off and call it good. IMO not having the decals won't make a difference to a potential buyer.

I have been giving thought to following what others here have done in pulling off the decals from the fenders of my 2013 dually.

Some days I like the look and others not so much.....LOL

Have some magnetic ones made so you can take them off and put them on whenever you feel like it.
