Blacked out

[Tdh777]

anyone here blacked out a 2nd gen and willing to share pics? I have an 03 eb 4.6 Black and Tan. Wanting to black out all lenses. Not sure if I should have the factory assemblies wrapped and converted to led or just buy aftermarket. Have already replaced the fog lights due to an idiot driver in a Pontiac sun fire hitting me and totaling his car. I replaced fog lights and wet sanded his paint off my bumper. Lol!
Also looking for info on durable wheels that are offroad capable for light wheeling and not stupid expensive.

I have the same as an 06. Things I've thought about were black headlights, tinted tail lights, and 11+ black 20 in f150 fx4 wheels. However, with the eddie bauer lower tan I feel it would never flow. Side from a full black paint job and some nice black wheels I don't know if there's a clean way to budget a black out for our rides. Personally, I'm opting for a full paint correction detail when the weather breaks and tinted side windows to match the rest. My tires are brand new so wheels won't happen until I need tires.

You can black out your wheels with Bedliner Spray. Looks surprisingly good.

I have been looking into the vinyl wrap place here in town to see how much it would cost to black the tan as well! They said they can definitely match the paint where it won’t be noticeable. First I have to finish my paint correction for the passenger side, tons of scratches from the trails near the house. Have gotten the drivers side done though! It’s a process.

Not doing bed liner in the wheels. I will wait until I can get nicer ones

Black plasti-dip?

Current Rustoleum "bedliner" is actually just a more rugged plastidip-type product... looks better tho

removal is easy, and you dont even have to worry about overspray or getting it on your brakes

One drawback: too much tire shine can make it a bit runny
