I know I have seen at least one person post a picture of their Ranger with one of these installed. I think it was in the 'What did you do to your Ranger today?' thread, but I cannot find it for the life of me. My main question is, wouldn't the windshield wipers hit this and eventually wear it down or peel it off?

Lots of places make custom decals. You could get one sized the way you want.

I have a Ranger Station banner on my 2001. Wipers have gone over that one for more than five years and it still looks fine. A lot will depend on the quality of material Ford uses.

This! I've had vinyl lettering on all my work trucks/vans for years and they held up great. These went through many years on New England winters and years of washing and none of them ever peeled or discolored.

It's hard to tell by the picture and the instal instruction if these are just the letters or is there a sun strip? If just the letters it looks like very little (if any) would just get hit by the wipers.

How’s it holding up @dondonbabyraptor ? Are the wipers scuffing it up?

This should be a good test for the sun fading or peeling. I doubt he uses his wipers much, there's not much rain in Southern CA either. Plus he has so much Graphene on there they'll never come off. lol

Looks like there is a tint(?) over it. Is that how windshield tint works, rather than the inside?
Ceramic tint inside the windshield, performance banner on outside. It shows better in the light.

Holding up great! Nothing to complain about. @AzScorpion haha, I use my wipers for a quick wipe in the morning from the pollen and dust but yeah that’s about it :p we have had a few sprinkles here n’ there this month ? you’re right about the layer of graphene, only do it once every 6 months now but man. I think it’s stuck. It still shines after a desert trip and 3 months of dust/pollen. And before Duke gives me crap again and others, there was a car sandwiched behind me so I gave him room. I don’t park like @Tracy Bowman :turkey::p
