Picked her up from the tint shop who also put my stripes on. Now I need to replace the chrome badges with red and I will have just the right amount of color.
Swapped chrome badges to red… all except the front Pony. Can’t figure out how to get to it. Video I watched removed the one plastic trim panel the hood prop clips in to. Then he reached down behind the grill. Did they add more plastic to the MY21? I can’t reach down there to get it.

That's pretty retarded on their part.
What they do, leave your car there, try in the 4th hour, all hour and finally said,.....no we can't seem to do the flash today??

Did you remove the plastic cover above the radiator?

why does your ecoboost stuff look different. the intake box has ridges, and your radiator cover, it has ford perf in the front.

Yes. There was a softer rubber cover below that. Finally figured out how to get to the badge. Just not able to get that rubber part completely back. It attaches at the front by 4 push pins that need to be pushed from below. I could get the outside two, just not the inner two.

Not 100% sold on the red as is. Might try clear plastidip over it to dull down the shine.

I 2nd that emotion. Tone down that pony! The 5.0 burns the retina a bit as well. Did you use the same color on the GT? That actually works as is (at least in the picture). Otherwise I love where you're going with it.
yeah I would do it with all 4 badges. It depends on ow the light hits it. In the bag inside it looked dark and matte finish. In the sun it is brighter and glossier.
