Default Pics of my truck and new intake

Hey guys, got my new intake from K&N today and figured I'd snap a few pics of it and the truck since I got new wheels and tinted the tails a while back. Enjoy

Well I just put it on today but I can feel it accelerate faster, but the most noticeable aspect is the sound. From about 3000rpm and up it SCREAMS! It sounds so good, definately sounds like it has more ***** lol.

Truck looks nice! good work. I just picked up my black 4.6 FX2 a week ago and planning on the K&N CAI with a Borla exhaust. Thanks for the pics and the commentary. Also, how did you tint the tails? I'm trying to black out the whole truck except for some red brake calipers. Also have the grey 20's that Ford just released.

Thanks for the comments! For the tails I just used Niteshades paint and a few coats of clear. Its hard to tell but they still have a hint of red, which is what I was going for.

I put the K&N FIPK on my '05 Supercrew 5.4 and the first thing I noticed was the sound. You can really hear it sucking in alot of air. Mileage increase was nominal, but the look and sound is what really counts (right?)
