I have a '19 FX4 Lariat, but with the chrome package. Is there one of these with chrome FORD letters, or does anyone have any ideas for us "chromies"?

Sorry, I forgot to take pictures of the tabs. When looking down at the tabs it looks like you need to put the screwdriver under the tabs to pry/push them up. However, you need to put the screwdriver on top of the tabs and push down. I recommend beginning with one side by the headlight and work to the other side. Also, pull on the grill as you push on each tab. I started on the passenger side and worked toward the driver’s side. I also, used a car wash sponge to wedge between the grill and headlight until I got to the third bottom tab. I hope that helps.What do you mean pry down?
Do you have a picture of the older grills tabs?
You might be able to have a shop chrome plate the letters or maybe have them wrapped. My tint shop does car wraps and I believe I saw chrome available. You might be able to do it yourself if you feel adventurous. Amazon has rolls of it for about $10.I have a '19 FX4 Lariat, but with the chrome package.

No, I am not. I am removing or blacking out all chrome except inside the headlights. I have the sport package so only the badges are chrome. I am considering paintIng the letter magnetic to match the truck though.Are you going to chrome your FORD letters?
Hope this isn't a terrible thing to say, but I liked the factory version better. I really just love the magnetic truck with magnetic grill combo.Before:

I completely understand and I have been toying with the idea of painting the surround magnetic to match. I am adding red accents around the truck as well so might do the letters in red.Hope this isn't a terrible thing to say, but I liked the factory version better.

Looks great! I love the outlined letters. I am seriously considering this. I would do magnetic with red centers.
That looks really really good. The raptor look has been done so much, but there is something about this that is really clean and striking.
