For those wondering what gloss black looks like on ruby red.
Anyone put the gloss black letters on a black truck? Torn between gloss, matte black or liquid chrome since the truck is black and chrome.

Thank you for the MAGNETIC ideas. I think I will go with Liquid chrome for the front and black for the tailgate.

Mine arrived today.

Hopefully not a dumb question ....

From what I can tell, you clean the truck and stick these on. Is it a one shot install, or can you wet the area and have the ability to position them if they are off a bit?

I cleaned the area with alcohol and sprayed water on the letters before applying them. It will give you a little time for positioning them.

Mine arrived today also.
I was thinking they were evenly spaced on a strip of tape ?
They appear to be individual letters.
I ended up getting liquid chrome for a black truck.
Also got the interior center console mats.

I have a 2017 F-250 Platinum in tri-coat white. I went with brushed silver for the "SUPER DUTY" letters and lightning blue for the "PLATINUM".

They fit perfect and have held up great for over a year of washes and weather.

Very happy with the TufSkinz brand.

Here is the black with the truck dirty and different angle. I may buy the liquid chrome for the front just to have it different. I like them both.

That looks awesome, definitely thinking black for mine now just need to decide gloss vs matte. Thanks!

Just received my order today. It’s raining so I’ll have to wait to put them on. Curious on how they’ll look on the truck.

That looks awesome! I ordered matte black for all 3 areas for my tri coat white. They haven’t arrived yet.
This brushed silver has me second guessing that decision. I’ll post pics when they show up to compare.
