Default Romulous' "Slowly but Surely" FX2 SuperCrew Build Thread

Figured I'd start this thread for anyone remotely interested... I've had my 5.0L FX2 SCREW almost 3 months, and I dont have a ton of dinero to throw at my new toy all at once, but, none-the-less... Here it is.

Current Mods:
Tint, Dipped front/rear Ford emblems, Bully Smoked LED Third Brake Light, Cut tailpipe, CravenSpeed Stubby antenna, Spec-D Tuning LED Halo Projectors, Blacked out FX2 bed decals
Future Mods:
Moody Blue flat black FX2 bed decals, Painted Taillight Edges, 2/4 drop, cold air intake, programmer, cat-back exhaust, and OEM FX2 BLACK (appearance pkg) 20" wheels..

I'm sure there will be MUCH more added to this list, and some of the big ticket items will take some time, but, wanted to get everyone's opinion so far, and possibly spur some more ideas for me to add.

Thanks for the look!

Here she is as I've gone along so far...

How did you do the emblems after you plasti dipped them? That looks real nice. Did you just take an exacto knife and cut out the "ford"??

Thanks man! Just dipped the whole thing and used a toothpick. The only part I used a razor on was the outside chrome ring (very thin piece) on the rear logo. All it takes is patience.

Easy breezy... Don't like it, peel it off and you're out 1/10th of a can of PlastiDip... Just be sure to tape off behind it so you don't have to worry about the "grate" part of the grille
