    💯 How To Trim Your F150 Air Dam - Custom Look - VMP Supercharged F150
    In this video we cut the air dam on my 2018 VMP ODIN supercharged Ford F150. This truck mod is fairly simple and free but makes a big difference in the appearance of the truck. This truck mod is an upgrade from simply removing the air dam to make the truck look lifted in the front because the plastic tabs hanging down and the bolt holes both look finished and clean. Watching other people work has been a hobby of lazy people the world over for the last 50 years and work watching has grown exponentially as a sport in the last 5 years with the rise of youtube. Enjoy watching Sam Mizer do work in this truck mod video.

    I was literally just about to trim mine on a 2016. Had the Dremel out, blue masking tape ready to go. Then you said "or just plug the holes with plastic clips..." I'm like ha, why didn't I think of that? I just went that route and cut of the clips hanging down. I'm digging how it looks. I like both ways though. Nice trucks!

    I used the same 3m green tape. It was in my garage for a couple years and wasn’t sticking either. I used a little heat from a heat gun to warm the roll. It works perfect to reactivate the adhesive. Tape worked as it should, stuck but released easily.

    I literally did this on my floor last night. Some pro tips are buy two inch and a quarter tape. That’s the perfect width. Also I used a pair of long handle Midwest vinyl snips . Way easier cutting and no ruff edge from jig. Still ran a file down edge though. Then I put back on.

    Is that an aftermarket grill on the white F-150? That thing is awesome!

    • @BackroadDriver
      @BackroadDriver  Pƙed 3 lety +1

      It is aftermarket. Got it off Ebay. I've had it for well over a year and it still looks brand new. The finish on it is OEM quality for sure. Search for gloss black F-150 grill. I got the white LED 3 light option on it and it looks like only the amber lights are available right now. Can't post links on here or I would send you straight to the part. I did not purchase from the same seller but the current seller that has it available is skwoffroad. It will reuse your factory emblem so if you want it to be gloss black and whatever color your truck is you'll need to order custom emblems as well. I ended up wrapping the chrome on my factory emblems and ordering aftermarket emblems to get rid of all of the chrome so depending on what your factory grill and emblems looks like you may need to do the same.

      Tin snips may work but idk how nice of a line it'll leave. U can use a cut off wheel, Jigsaw, oscillating multi tool. Probably many other methods as well. Just test it on a part that's going to be scrap anyway. Whichever gives you the nicest lines. Use it..
