Sorry man but I just don't dig it. Looks like it turned out pretty nice though.

BTW check out paintscratch.com, you can order spray cans of exact color matched paints. Then it actually would be true color matched to your tux black.

Thanks for your comments. I think the outside ring came out spot on and being that I'm going for a blacked out look all around, I like the way the center came out. Wasn't trying to match the tuxedo black. I can't expect everyone to like everything I do. But maybe someone else wanting to truely match the trucks paint job can use paintscratch.com. PEACE...

Sorry I am the forum "straight - shooter";

^ This looks good. The painted version by the OP does not, sorry bro.

First of all..You can still see the Ford logo behind the paint. Secondly, now you just have a ********* oval there?

No offense...:peace:

That sticker does look good. I think it would look great with the outside ring painted to match the outline of the other letters. Where did you find it?

I had my vinyl guy do an Oxford White background and Matte Black ring and lettering. I like it, still need to attack the bezel though. I have a smaller version of the same decal on my steering wheel too.

Looks good. So we all agree just about anything is better then that big blue oval. Does anyone know the dimensions the sticker should be to cover the ford logo? I'm in my office and would like to find one online today.
