I tried both ways Fapo-F ligand as well as Fligand-Fapo. You are right the
red density becomes negative when the F is reversed.
The unit cell parameters are quite same.

For native: a=120.557 b=196.262 c=109.339 , alpha =90, beta=114.231 and
gamma=90
ligand complexed data= a=119.952 b=196.084 c=109.206 , alpha =90,
beta=114.116 and gamma=90

My 2Fo-Fc map as well as Fo-Fc is quite significant and i modeled the ligand
uisng that.
