White Tremor Opinions

Huh interesting. Maybe they do fit and they simply haven't updated their site? I've run into that a lot when you see "Fits 2015-2020 F150" and then after inquiring about the 2021+ model they go "Oh yeah, they fit, we just haven't updated the website yet." Guys, I want to give you my money. Make it easier!

FYI I just spoke to them at CarId, and they "confirmed" it would fit. Also made sure if it didn't it was returnable....so there's that I guess.

EDIT: I have email Xenon to confirm if this is true or not.

Just for some food for thought...here is another easy way to add some black with white flares (I know its not our gen). Opinions?

FYI, no idea who's vehicle this.

They look... out of place I guess. The little 45 angles on the corners I don't love, and the read door panel doesn't go to the door edges like the front. Pretty torn on that and leaning towards no for me personally.

Honestly, I mostly agree. The only caveat I have is I think I like this look (if done better I guess) more than the other. I guess, to me, it has more potential...idk how else to say it really.

Directly side by side (mostly) I think I like the bottoms overall look more....but it's close.

Ford also shows some on the tremor when you look at the air design fenders. So I'm not sure if that helps or hurts the idea, but the fit is different and more inline with the vehicles lines.

If we're talking about these (https://accessories.ford.com/products/f-150-crew-cab-2021-matte-black-door-molding-trim-kit), I could get behind. They fit the flow and contours of the door much better and feel like they below.

I really just can't get behind the fender bolts honestly. So for me, I think it comes down to black flares that have no bolts and look good with the body style or just get the Xenon in white and try and get black elsewhere. Because flares are far and few berween for us right now unfortunately.

Well I just ordered them to see, so I will let you know and see them mocked up. Free delivery and returns to my dealership from ford accessories, plus 15% off, so worst case they go back haha.

Take photos! Seeing other builds are definitely hugely influential. I decided NOT to put the orange with black outline F150 decal on the tailgate. It was too bright (I wanted the pattern to match the Tremor logo).

Oh I 100% agree. I was originally going to do that as well and that thread made me decide not to. I instead opted for the black with orange outline and absolutely love it. So, I will post pictures when I get it and mock it up.

What about no flares? The great thing about having your own truck is that you get to do with it what you like and who cares what others think, but since you asked for opinions, I am of the opinion that there is not a good looking flare, period.

I posted this elsewhere but figured it would be good here for anyone trying to see/weigh their options for adding black on the white Tremors.

I believe it doesn’t mention that the ones you purchased from Ford are by Air Design but they look very similar. Only difference I see is a slight angled transition from one piece to the next on the Air design panels.

I think it's just the angle of the image here, because they are the air design ones.

Anyone seen or out bronze wheels on their white tremor yet? I haven't seen any and can't decide if I'd like it with the orange or not....

I noticed there was a tube in the rocker panel box of what I believe is 3m adhesive ( I didn't look closely or read directions yet ) was this part of the install?
Is this install a 1 shot attempt that once placed its stuck?

Yes it is part of it, there is a small "channel" beneath the red covered adhesive strip that you use a calk gun and put the silicone adhesive in. It is a one shot install, as in it will not move once you're done. Well, not easily anyway. So make sure you get it first try. I didn't try heating it up or anything like that, but I did put a significant amount of force to see how strong it was.
