Ford Performance Tune, Ceramic coating and new Raptor decals

[Rufus]

Did you apply the decal prior to ceramic coating? Or did you have to "scuff" the coated area where you applied the decal after? Also, ignore the naysayers...your truck, do as you like. FWIW I like the look.

I just waited 48hrs for the ceramic coating to cure. Then just used the “Wet” method to apply them. No difference than how they are applied without a ceramic coating.

Those look great. I've always like them on the F-150 Raptors. Do you have any other angles or wide angle of the whole truck with them on? I def would go this route.

I’ll get a full shot later today. It’s in my garage so not enough room to get it right now.

Those are sick. I also like them on the F-150 so it's pretty cool to see you carried this over to the RR. Nice work. #impressed

The only problem with your garage queen....it's WAY too clean!

I’m perfectly happy with it just like it is !

Not in NA it isn’t. I’m not unaware of the previous ROW version, but I prefer to reflect the current RR as Gen 01 here. Just sayin….

I actually considered the issue but decided for my purpose and to be historically correct for NA RR I’d go with it as Gn 01. I figured if I used Gn 02 there’d be folks telling me there was no Gn 01 in NA so I was wrong that way. I like it just the way it is.

I get what you’re saying, but it’s still a Gen 2 from a global standpoint.

Ask Ford. It’s been in every Generation of F150 Raptor so far. Shelby even has one in their version. So, maybe, just maybe somebody cares about the decal even if you don’t!

Incorrect. That particular decal started with the gen 3 raptor. It did not exist for gen 1 or gen 2. Someone made some with gn 02 and gn 01 but they were never factory. I have one on my gen 2 - I went for the subtle look.

Great. Then I stand by my position that can call my Ranger Raptor anything ai want. It’s Gen 1 in NA all day long!

Don’t care. I live in NA.

You can do whatever you want, no one said otherwise.

And NA isn’t part of the globe to you?

My point in my RR was that I wanted one and since this is the first generation to be brought to NA I chose to use that number.

Maybe "US Gen 1 RR" ? just a thought

Thanks, but it’s also Gen 01 for Canada. Also part of NA. I’ll just leave it as it is.
