Justin: The tailgate letters that we have here today in matte black with a red outline will be an awesome choice for all 2018 through 2020 F-150 owners who might be looking to add a little bit more detail to the factory tailgate area on your rig. Now, this officially licensed kit from Ford is gonna utilize a durable automotive grade ABS plastic, along with the very unique combination of a matte black base with a small red outline and it's gonna fit that F-150 stamping perfectly, and you can have these on the site for right around 90 bucks. Now, the peel and stick install, at least according to the site here, guys, is gonna get a very soft one out of three wrenches on the difficulty meter. Shouldn't really take you any more than a few minutes to complete from start to finish, and we'll demonstrate that install later in the video.Now, the purpose of this particular product is pretty obvious, right? To fill in that F-150 stamping in the factory tailgate area and just give things a little bit more style, kick things up a notch. Now, currently, there are several different ways to do this on the site from your more affordable vinyl options, stainless steel options, plastic, and the durable ABS that we have here in more. But at the end of the day, they all serve that common purpose of adding some subtle customization, again, to that factory tailgate. Now, with that said, if you're not a huge fan of the black and red combination, feel free to check out the rest of our extensive collection back on the site if you haven't already done so.But getting back to this kit and it has been made here in the USA and does feature that really cool color combination that I'm personally a big fan of, and that's the matte black base that's been given that subtle red outline accent. I think it looks killer. And if I'm a special edition, Larry donor 2018 and up, this kit is an absolute brainer as it really does flow with some of the black and red accents present on that truck. But if you're not a special edition owner and you just dig the look, perfectly fine as well. Now, maybe most importantly here, guys, is just how well this kit does fit into that F-150 stamping on the tailgate. Really does fit like a glove, and that's something a bunch of our customers have pointed out in the review section. As always, gang, read up on some of those reviews, check out the customer-submitted images while you're there, always better way to get some feedback from customers who have actually pulled the trigger on this particular product.Now, as far as the installation goes, well again, no need for any crazy drilling permanent modification. It's a peel and stick job, guys. Really simple stuff, but what I will say is that 3M adhesive on the back is very, very tacky. So with that being said, just make sure you line things up perfectly the first time around, apply light pressure, get it perfect, and then go ahead and hammer it home. Apply firm pressure, make sure it's really stuck because once it's on there, believe me, it's not going to come off easily. But regardless, to give you a better idea of just how easy this job is, check out our detailed walkthrough right now.Man: So the first step of this install is going to be making sure that the application surface is nice and clean. So I'm gonna take an alcohol prep pad and wipe the surface down so that I have good adhesion for my stickers. So I'm gonna start by just peeling back a part of the letter. Once I have the corner peeled back, I can set my letter into place and just get it lined up before I start to apply some pressure to stick it to the tailgate. Now I'll just repeat that for the remaining four pieces.And that's gonna wrap up this review and install of the tailgate insert letters in matte black with red outline, fitting your 2018 to 2020 F-150.
