Loosecannon Posted March 21, 2011 Report Share Posted March 21, 2011 A) The grill looks great,.. but it's gonna chip,.. like crazy! Trust me. Go have it wrapped by a place that does vinyl graphics on vehicles (shouldn't cost much and they don't need to take the grill off to do it). The tails look good, prepare to be pulled over and blah blah blah you know the rest. and C) The wheels look awesome. I like them without the chrome inserts personally. Keep up the awesome mods!!

Cannon Thanks cannon!! It should take awhile to chip, I've painted a lot of grilles and have only seen a little bit of chipping. I did about 10 coats on this one : ) But if it does I will definitely take your advise and have it wrapped. I havent had a problem with the cops yet on the tails, the brake lights shine very bright through the tint so I dont see why there would be a prob. Ya I really like the rims!! I agree, looks better without the inserts. Cant wait to put the tires on!! I'll post better shots once the rims/tires are installed Irish Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yogregb Posted April 3, 2011 Report Share Posted April 3, 2011 I like it better without the chrome strips.... you could plastic-dip the front grill to make it chip resistant:yup: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EDGEONU Posted April 3, 2011 Report Share Posted April 3, 2011 How did you do the Ford emblems? Right now mine a carbon fiber wrapped but I like that look you out together. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cal3thousand Posted April 4, 2011 Report Share Posted April 4, 2011 How did you do the Ford emblems? Right now mine a carbon fiber wrapped but I like that look you out together. Looks like a mask and paint job. Cover the whole thing in blue painter's tape (one or two layers) , pencil in the emblem, cut it out with a razor, spray paint, let dry, carefully peel.

Cover the whole thing in blue painter's tape (one or two layers) , pencil in the emblem, cut it out with a razor, spray paint, let dry, carefully peel. Pretty damn close!! one layer of masking tape, outline lettering with fingernail, cut out lettering with a model knife, primer, 7-8 coats of flat black spray paint, dry and peel.

IrishTuner Posted April 6, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 6, 2011 How did you do the Ford emblems? Right now mine a carbon fiber wrapped but I like that look you out together. thanks man!! see above post, really easy if you already have the grill/bumper off. The emblem is held on by 2 plastic nuts. The rear emblem just popped right out with no problems. Tires go on this week so i'll post some pics as soon as they are done.

perfik Posted May 24, 2011 Report Share Posted May 24, 2011 Get your compressor from Home Depot not Crappy Tire... But the jack I got from CT is still going strong after 5 years of Jeep work ... and that is a LOT of use! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
