Decided to remix the raptor grille to better fit my silver and black with red accent color scheme.

I added front letters to the Ranger, but I slightly screwed up on the last letter.

First off, I think overall it looks great and the first five letters went on perfectly and easily. The last letter, I don’t know if I got a little careless, or the light was bad, but I put it on just a hair off line. I did not notice it at first, but then I did. Then I thought maybe people would not notice it, but after I took a picture of it, I knew they would and even worse I would.

I heated it up and removed it and put it on properly, but the surface of the letter was slightly damaged in the process.

I have ordered the letters again. At least it comes with two R’s in case I screw up again.

The pics show the before, the screwed up R and then the straightened R.

I get the tailgate letters on Saturday. It was a good lesson, but it is also a little scary now. Perhaps being larger they will be easier, but I now know they have to be put on perfect, a hair off perfect is not good.It would be a more expensive do over if I make an error.

Where did you get the front letters ? Looks good, what color / finish did you go with ?

I got them on Amazon. They are ABS and seem to be of good quality and finish. I chose the chrome ones to try and come close to my tailgate stainless steel ones.

This was the Canadian Amazon link where I bought them: https://www.amazon.ca/gp/product/B07VY66PFX/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o02_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

This is the USA Amazon link: https://www.amazon.com/LimitlessPar...9Y2xpY2tSZWRpcmVjdCZkb05vdExvZ0NsaWNrPXRydWU=

It is hard to beat the price and I think they look great.

For the Raptor lights there's the amber and the white.

Do they turn on and off with your headlights?

Did you use a kit like this: https://www.stage3motorsports.com/2019-2021-ford-ranger-raptor-style-grille-light-kits.html

Yes and yes those are the ones. They plug right into the side marker lights. Very easy instal...Well besides the damper. ?

Is it true that the damper also increases torque for towing?

If you get the right one it adds 50 hp and 100 lbs of torque. ?

Turned off the Daylight Savings Time selection because, unlike the other connected devices, Sync is too stupid to do it itself.
