Default Starting a build thread, 2012 FX4 SCAB 5.0L

Hello all,

Since I will not be trading in for a SVT Raptor, I've decided to start ordering up parts for my 2012 FX4 build. I plan on starting with the following....

Roush Catback Exhaust
K&N Drop In Filter (for now, CAI coming soon)
Updated FX4 badges
Tinted windows
Anzo LED third brake light
Ford coil covers
New plugs and coil packs?? (Truck has 72,XXX on it, maybe time for new ones?)






I'm looking for a few other cheap things to do in the meantime so if anyone has any suggestions it would be very helpful.

Just ordered exhaust, third brake light, badges, and new window visors. Any other cheap mods I can start out with?

I want to do loaded struts but I think it will void my warranty.

How about Raptor style grille lights, from Stage3? Can't remember who it is, but another vendor was offering a kit as well. Maybe Boss?

If i'm not mistaken I believe that's a pretty inexpensive mod. How much does the kit cost?

I think I paid around $80. Let me see if I can find my order.

I thought I ordered it from Stage3 Motorsports, but it wasn't in my account. It isn't the one that Boss sells. A guy on here makes them, and markets them through someone else. The user name "Bowhunter" rings a bell to me.
If I can find it, I'll let you know.
