Good job, man. I finally had my new long block installed this week on warranty. OMG, it's like night & day. What a loooooong shitty aggravating process this has been. What I've learned in the process? 1) I always thought because your taking your vehicle to a dealer, your going to get better mechanics working on it. NOPE! 2) Most important. I am the man! Lmfao, I'll explain why. I'm February, I bought my 2018 F-150 with 15,000 miles on it. I scored it for $28,000 which I thought was odd, now I know why. It was mint, not a scratch on it, and it ran great. UNTIL my 1st oil change. That's when all hell broke loose. The tapping, the grinding sounds, and the startup sounded like it was a Cummings. Fast forward to step 14. I now have a 2018 F-150 with a brand new engine that has 20 miles on it that I paid $28,000 for. The MSRP was $54,640. For a total savings of $26,000. Mike
I was thinking of replacing the chrome grill on my Edge Titanium with the black honeycomb style from the ST, I didn't realize you have to pull off the whole freaking front end??
is there an easy way to install fog lights? I bought 2024 but it does not come with a pre-installed stock fog lights. I'm thinking of installing it myself but couldn't find any diy vids at the moment. I did install fog lights on my 2019 fusion. Thanks to these vids on youtube that are very helpful. hope you could help. I like your videos by the way.
Thank you for the video. I have to replace the front camera on my ford 2019 Ford edge. Do you think I could get this with just taking out the 1 headlight? Thank you.
Super vid, thanks for posting but what a PITA!! I was going to put the st honeycomb in till I saw this. Or is it any easier to do? Also looks like you painted you OEM wheels, do you like them? Can you post a pic of them?
WickedF150 You enjoy taking grills and front end assemblies apart anyway. Your bound to take that frontend apart 8 more times B4 all is said & done. LMAO
Thank you sooo much!! I need to do this to my 2021 SEL. Thanks for showing the CCM too! Just what I need.
Good job, man.

Just bought a 2021 Edge and I love it, except the chrome grill. The black looks great! Wish I had your skill.
I just ordered a black overlay grill from ses/carid for my 2019 edge SEL I can only hope it looks as good as your final product great job!
How did the overlay look?

Where did you end up buying the black emblem from?
How long did the process take from start to finish?

Purchase 2 fog lights, next install and wire the fog lights as per the workshop manual. Then activate them with FORScan.

No you'll definitely have to take it all off
@@WICKEDAUTO1 thanks for getting back to me. I wish Ford would have put a protective cover on it. thanks again!!
Super vid, thanks for posting but what a PITA!! I was going to put the st honeycomb in till I saw this. Or is it any easier to do? Also looks like you painted you OEM wheels, do you like them? Can you post a pic of them?
LOL! You say "removing the grill is a pain in the ass" after you removed the whole front the car(4:38) It looks good and done right
Nice! Looks a lot like the ST grill all blacked out like that. How did you deal with painting the hood with the black accent in the middle?
Thanks! The hood is actually a wrap
Хорошая работа 👍👍👍
Do you know if the ST honeycomb grill will fit?
It will, have it on ours now
@@WICKEDAUTO1 thanks! We just bought ours and I think we are going to get that grill and paint the wheels black
Loved the video but the video was mostly of how to remove grille not of how to paint the grill. Take it easy
Thank you
Goodness
👍🏽
Hit that with some 2k clear or it will fade fast.
It's just a temp fix for now. Going to end up replacing the grill for a different style down the road.
