Good look on the tow hooks and 150 graphic! What color code is the “code orange” you used to paint the hooks and what was your source for the graphic?

came earlyMine are supposed to arrive Monday(13th) I’ll try post a pic soon as I can. Mine are for the Husky X-Act also.
Thanks! I first found the vinyl color that best matched the amber led strip inside headlight. None of thinner pinstriping vinyls looked right and all of the various oranges are all too strong of orange. I found the best color in the line of 3M 2080 wrap vinyl so I bought 2' x 5' piece from Metro Restyling on web and will cut my own striping with a straight edge and sharp box knife or exacto knife. The color is S344 satin copper canyon in 3M 2080. I then took a piece of it to an automotive paint supplier that has ability to custom mix spray cans in automotive type paints. Looking through auto mfgrs paint chips books we found a close color match to my vinyl sample with 2018 Nissan Kicks paint code EBB. I had them mix 2 spray cans and bought matching brand primer. I also got some spray adhesion promoter for base coat over sanded powdercoat tow hooks. It is a rich copper color with a hint of orange. Looks much better in person as photos still look too orange. I sent Tuffskinz a vinyl sample and they custom matched their 4mm raised F-150 tailgate letters in this color shade for no additional cost. Their website doesn't show 2021 F150 application so you need to drop them an email. They look so rich against black paint. I plan on basically making my powerboost look like a Tremor but no Tremor decals. That includes highlights in side vents as well as grille stripe to go along with tow hooks. I may add a "hybrid" emblem "FX4" emblems on lower tailgate in satin copper canyon since I removed the giant FX4 decals from quarter panels. The picture was a test strip of the 3M thrown on for a picture. I will be adding it though permanently along with a new Ford grille emblem painted black letters with leadfoot gray background in gloss. Need to remove grille to install it. Rear emblem already installed in tailgate.Good look on the tow hooks and 150 graphic! What color code is the “code orange” you used to paint the hooks and what was your source for the graphic?

Awesome! They look great. Hopefully mine will arrive soon too.Here they are on. Under Led lights.
That is right along the lines of what Im thinking of doing, please share when you do this!Already purchased the pro comp 2.5 inch level kit. Will install day one. My buddy wraps vehicles for a living and he is blacking out the exterior completely (I ordered agate black) so the only orange will be on the interior. After 30k miles I’ll throw 35’s and new wheels on. That’s about it…
I definitely will! I think my buddy is just gunna remove them, wrap them in black, and put them back on!That is right along the lines of what Im thinking of doing, please share when you do this!
Also are you going to get custom Tremor bed stickers in gray or something or just remove them completely?
