The factory blackout panel has the faux gas cap made into it, you do need to remove the one on the car. Most of the aftermarket blackout panels uses the existing faux cap.

I was hoping that was the case.... but since there's no instructions, I wanted to be prepared for the "worst case scenario".

Good to know it'll be a lot easier than I anticipated. Thanks again!

Leave it to Ford to make it more difficult than it really needs to be.

Thanks for all the help. You guys Rock!

Getting off the old emblem was a P.I.T.A.... but it was worth it for sure..
