2008 Ford emblems?
So I plan on ordering the all chrome fender emblems for my 08 F250 CC 4x4 Lariat. My question is.... does Ford make a black plastic screen vent instead of the red one? I think they might come on the trucks with the gas engines but not sure. If not I think I am gonna try and paint them a gloss black.

The only thing I have seen is chrome inserts that actually look pretty good. I had mine painted the same color as my truck when I had the fender flares, mirrors and door handles painted.

Thanks guys for the help. I called the dealer this morning and they said they sell them for $80 a side including the chrome emblem. I guess the screens don't come separate. I don't really want any sort of chrome or billet insert. If you guys run accross the company that sells the factory black screens please post it here. I am even willing to trade if someone is interested.

I am not a chrome guy either but I actually like this look on the vent. I almost went this way but painted them instead.

I have a picture of the truck in my gallery. I painted them to match my truck and I had them painted by my paint guy when I had the fender flares painted. I know you have to prep them with a primer designed for plastic and/or use paint specifically designed for plastics. I wish I could tell you more but I did not paint them myself.
