Do it!

I personally am not a fan of it and I have a 17 black truck.

You'd probably like it better if you made all the graphics on the tailgate RED

Delete it, that way you don't have to post questions three years from now about how to replace it when it cracks, fades or starts rattling because a clip is broken.

GET IT!

Otherwise your badass Raptor will look like every base model F-150 from the back.

From behind is where every other F150 will see your Raptor...

We are pretty sure it has the new 2018 tailgate stamped with the "f150"

A member went to the plant recently and told us they saw the stamped tailgate on a Raptor. Like this:

I was the one recently at the factory tour on July 28. I saw a white Raptor right below me in the "customer acceptance" area that had the appliqué deleted. It looked exactly like the picture of the blue one above - stamp, Ford oval and Raptor badge.

I know there isn't a picture to show you guys proof, but I ordered mine with the delete and was specifically checking every Raptor out I could see in hopes of seeing one with the delete... I am 100% certain that the F-150 stamp was there.

I think the stamp sticks out less on the lighter color. Having said that, lighting and shadowing will affect how noticeable it looks at a given time. I like the appliqué on the darker colors (black being my fav with the appliqué), but the lighter the color gets (more contrast between the color and the appliqué), the less I like the black appliqué. While I would prefer it without the F-150 stamp like the MY17 tailgate, I'm still glad I deleted the appliqué on my Ingot Silver that I'm anxiously waiting to receive.
