Very interesting look with no roof rack. May I ask what type and finish wrap you used to do the space between second row windows and theirs row windows?

In addition, here is my 2016 Platinum EL with a 3” lift, 35/11.50/20s and 1.25” BORA wheel spacers with 5 star e30 tune and a few other mods along with my wife’s 2016 Limited on American Outlaw Lonestars. Going on 5 years for both almost

Also what wheels are those?

 

[JohnnyRed]

His and hers, I love it!

That is a 3M wrap on the pillars and mirrors. I had the rack wrapped too but really liked the look when we took it off to wrap it, so I left it off. The wheels are 22” replica 4th gen Expedition wheels. They are the stock offset. I’m thinking about spacers especially in the rear.
We just did the cosmetic upgrades recently after looking at new ones. The prices were insane and we still loved ours so we invested in her a little and couldn’t be happier.

Here is a better wheel pic. Black wheels don’t photograph well from a distance.

Nice boat! Love this rig!

Nice........until I saw the sticker

Nice Expedition! That looks very unique. I like it!

I bought my '15 XLT with 49k on the clock back in March selling my '16 Tundra 4x4.

I’m shooting for these replicas but in chrome for my 16 when I need new tires next year. Lift is coming off and I’m going to 305/45/22s. And the rear looks more tucked in because the front bumper sticks out more than the rear. If you look at the track width measurements, front and rear are within like 1/4” of each other

Which sticker? The logo on the rear window is my company.

Take it off

Well if it was all about looks, I agree it would look better. Since it is about advertising and making money it’s probably going to stay. Gotta pay the bills! It might be coming off to change for something else, but we will see.

I had companies and signs and biz cards etc, to me they do nothing and not worth messing up my stuff. Everybody seems to think everyone is going to see a logo etc and run to look it up, but in reality nobody cares. It's what you do with the biz and how you run it.........not signs.

I’m gonna be completely honest, first thing I did was spend 15 minutes on his site looking at the wakeboard stuff.
@JohnnyRed i like it! At least it’s same color scheme and not like bright orange or something

 

[JohnnyRed]

Thanks for the business advice Navi. I’ll do what makes sense to me. You do you.

Thanks Robert. It’s a fun gig. Pays for the toys and I have had others tell me they have looked it up from the window because of the boat combo before too. That’s why it is still on there. Might change it to my website address. Might not. Ha.

I dig it. Perfect size for that big ass window. If I may ask (not intending to derail this post) but how did you plug the holes in your roof when you took rails off?

 

[JohnnyRed]

I used stainless set screws with sealant tape screwed in flush. The actual roof insert sticks up about an 1/16” or so do it’s not perfectly flush. Unless you are 7’ tall you wouldn’t notice.

This thread got a little off track. Post up pics of your Expedition. We need to see some variety!

Don't feel bad, I painted half of my roof with white house paint on my last truck.

Take it off
