I’m 50 and feel 90 today as it’s been a long day. I will be up early tomorrow doing the valance first thing, then removing the FX4 stickers, then weather permitting, complete detail including clay bar, wash and wax. Due to the Hurricane headed our way, the detail part may have to wait. I have Husky liners ordered, and also a folding bed extender in addition to the tonneau. The list keeps piling up lol

In case you wanted to know what your truck would have looked like in Atlas Blue. I picked mine up yesterday, only difference I can quickly see if the running boards and badging. Even have the same tires!!!

looks Awesome! I just finished up the Tremor front valance install, and man what a difference. I also removed the FX4 stickers as I like the clean look. Now, I need to install Bilstein 5100’s, my Ford Embark tonneau, folding bed extender, and research and purchase a short antenna. My Husky X-Act Contours will be here this week as well. I’m considering the Banks exhaust with the black single tip. I know it probably won’t make a difference in performance, but love the look.

Anything special in the process of removing the FX4 sticker? What is the process?

I used a hair dryer to remove the FX4 sticker on my 09. Fortunately they did not leave any residue.

It was hot and humid here today, so not sure if that helped but I simply peeled a corner with my fingernail and got enough started to grab a section and peeled right off. My truck was built 8/6, so the sticker has only been on for two weeks. But it was real easy.

Tsubakihara... thank you! I've worked hard, and waited a long time to buy this sucker. Antimatter looks great also!


I'll be leaving mine mostly stock, but I may change the exhaust tip. I don't like the stock 6.2L exhaust tip.

I'm doing some black/grey Merican flag Tuskinz on the front... Hopefully today. Then some ventvisors, and the big Fisher plow which will lead to the 2wd valance going on. I hate the 4wd valance. Did I mention that already/ Ha.

no, I can’t open the rear doors if they are locked. I will have to research

Thumbs up

For the antenna... I like these. Strictly looks. Don't really ever use AM/FM any more. Looks good on Jeeps too!!!

I love that truck! It looks as good as a Tremor, if not better with the 20" wheels. Great idea. And, I always remove my "Sport" or "4x4" stickers from the bed. It looks so much cleaner without them. A little heat and they pull off very nicely.

I looked into the Fluid Film thing, but came across a few forums that said it makes a mess of the undercarriage. Not sure if there's any truth to that or not.
