We have two Mavericks. One is cactus gray, and the black tailgate letters look great. But our second Maverick is carbonized gray and the black letters would have gotten lost in that color. I opted for the pricier ones with the red outline and I think it really was a good choice. These really "pop'.

Simple, yet bold. Great pick.

I know the Maverick is a "budget" truck but Ford really should have made the darkened lettering stock. It really does improve the appearance but I have never had great luck gluing things on to painted surfaces.
Just to chime in with my opinion here: I disagree that the inset lettering looks better and am glad they left it as just an imprint although I’d really rather the tailgate just be blank. I personally feel like adding the colored lettering just makes for a garish “pay attention at me!” look and is not my style at all. To each their own of course but that’s just my take.

I love the chrome on The Atlas Blue. I'm getting ready to install mine but am scared I'll get a letter crooked. Were they easy to install?
Yep. Spray with a little water first to give you time to position and then push it into place.

Are they Ford or aftermarket? I wanted more of a brushed aluminum look to match the grille accent but chrome looks like the only choice.
Got mine on Amazon. I think Etsy has a selection as well.

My wife now figuratively rolls her eyes when I point and say "Maverick".
I thought I was the only one! Now she just ignores me, so I went to the "Mileage report at the end of our trip". That wore off soon enough, as well. Thinking of getting an AI robot for the back seat that can appreciate my Maverick musings.
