    Like the black look of the base kit. I have had these on several vehicles and they last a good long time. If I had a Platinum instead of a ST I might have opted for the shiny chrome look...

    "EXPLORER" lettering on hood

    I took mine off today in preparation for a hood protector (not a bug deflector). Used dental floss to remove the letters, a plastic trim tool to remove the excess double stick material and finally Goo Gone and an old microfiber towel to remove the last of the sticky stuff. Finished up with...
