Navigator Exhaust ~ Updates ~ Pics

[rick chitown]

hey guys...
Just wanted to post a couple pics of some changes I made recently. Little, but I like that individual, unique look. I have never been crazy about the exhaust exiting the side on the Expy while the Navitgator shoots straight out the back, so I had my local exhaust guy put on a Navi tailpipe. Also, since Ford sees the need to put guide holes in the tailgate for the badge, I couldnt de-badge, so I blacked it out... let me know what you think.

different...but what are you going to do about the FORD emblem...i'm covering mine up with a link someone put out here before where they make custom labels for it...

And what's funny is the ford logos don't bother me, just the expy logo. My next purchase is going to be 22in KMC rims in black...

Also, be forewarned... At least on my '10expy, the Ford is actually raised, so whatever decal you put over the blue oval, you will still see Ford. FYI only...

are you going profile tires or something like 31s, 33s, 35s on the EL? 24's and 26's would like BEAUTIFUL on it...at least 24's...its to big for 22's on profiles if you go street with it.

Glad I saw this before I pulled mine off. I debadge all of my cars, so now I have to figure out what to do about it. Might get it painted black when I get the tails tinted.

My local body guy wanted $400 to fill the holes and paint.... Yeah, I got an idea, how about forget it.

my wife said I should just put little silicone plugs in place. Its not like we are going to show the truck or anything, just like a clean look.

i like a clean truck myself...just debadge mine yesterday...did a good job...just have to buff it out cause you can still see the "EXPEDITION and EDDIE BAUER" spots...only up close though...

speaking of buffing...i dont have a buffer so what other method can i do for this...

i'm going to put my last name on top of the ford emblem...thinking about putting BHSOULJA on the tailgate in chrome letters....now that its clean...i might not do it...

another updated pic... I decided to sand and paint the chrome tip... I think it looks better personally, but I'm likin' the blacked out look. plus I put my Yakima bike rack on over the weekend, looks pretty cool. I want to get a Mega warrior basket for the top, but they are PRICEY!! I'll let you know when I get that done... for now, here's the black chrome tip... feedback always welcome!
