So, I had to get a little creative as you see.
The front grill area wasn't the exact decals for that area.I actually trimmed off the yellow corner lights as they weren't the right size or shape. I didn't want to leave that area blank, and those JC stickers were speaking to me. And there are actually 2 different deals making up that grill. The bottom was a full sticker minus the yellow. The top part was taller having more of the "hone comb" and I think was designed to go below the grill on a different body. I just trimmed it and stck it in there as the lower one left too much plastic showing for my tase.
For the side, I just guestimated where the door handles went. But I already had the Raptor stickers in place. I know that the factory Raptors don't have that there, but they were like the perfect size/shape to fill in that little nook user the window. Also I am trying to use decals from every part/brand I have into the truck. The 4x4 stickers are form my TooMod shocks. I feel like it needs something else on the sides. I have a few ideas and am open to suggestions. I also need to figure out something for the taillights as I don't have the factory decals to go there. I am hoping to find some red adhesive vinyl and just cutting them by hand.
I am not sold on the tailgate. It does look better in person. I am actually not a "Ford guy", but you gotta love the Raptor. And a lot of real Ford trucks have this style tailgate. And I couldn't leave it plain, to much empty space for my taste. I think once I get the taillights on that will help. And I think I will do some bumper stickers on the bottom portion. I acutally have an idea of a custom one to make.
The Element sticker on the rear window is self explanatory, and I have some more to go on. Just deciding on placement and exactly what I want to use. And I also have another custom one I want to make but not sure if it will go on the rear or front.
