Not really. I bought it June 2018. It did have to be ordered and driven from another dealership, about 200 miles away.

May see it came from 200 miles away... did you order it though? Or just found one on a lot farther away?
I would’ve made them ship it or I would’ve went with the guy and drove it back.

Yes, found it 200 miles away, and ordered it. Took 3 days for delivery. It had everything I wanted EXCEPT the Blackedout package.
Seems it is hard to get a GT with the Blackedout package, Performance Pack AND Premium.

never even heard of the black our package.
I have the PP1 and premium.
PP2 was hard to find but never even seen or heard of the black our package

In short, ALL the emblems are blacked out...

Unfortunately ford has never offered the black accent package with the performance package which is dumb because it’s just a matter of charging a few hundred dollars on top of the performance package and making it an add on and I’m sure most of the performance package buyers will opt for it as the car already has black wheels.

Easy enough to do yourself. I changed the badges on mine, just order a replacement set from either CJ's, American Muscle or LMR.

it is odd, they should have red calipers too. Either way I would’ve got the black accent package.

what did you change? The 5.0, GT, and Pony?
only issue I have with that is getting it realigned again... guess you could use some masking tape...

It’s really easy. If you buy the genuine Ford replacements all of the emblems have guide pins. So when you remove the old ones, just push the new ones into the same hole and press the 3M tape down for 20 seconds and you are good to go. I changed all of mine in maybe 30 minutes. CJ Pony Parts has a video you can watch where Bill walks you through it. The set comes with all four badges.

Beyond that you are missing nothing. The car already has a black roof and you have the performance pack black wheels.
So save yourself a lot and do the emblems yourself.

my car is white. I thought of doing a wrapped black roof though... yeah I think I may place an order today for the emblems and and do watch the video.

I also wanted to do tinted taillights... have you tried that also?

just wanted the video... when he does the pry off method does it leave broken pieces In the vehicle (like the pegs breaking off) that’s my only concern is making hearing that broken piece roll around when you open the trunk or something....

Are you talking about the decklid? I just removed the decklid and drilled them out. Here is a video of that method. Also very easy if you have pry tools.

You only need the first part of this video. On the back there are some marked areas, you just drill them out slowly and the emblem falls out. That or you break it off from the front and push the pieces through like the first video you watched. Easy to do either way.

Now I am wondering if I want matte black emblems, or just straight black...

Show me a photo of the car and I’ll give you my opinion.

Are you planning on any cosmetic mods? The way it stands I would do gloss. Matte on an all gloss car with no other accents would be a bit funky IMO.
