Default What to spend my money on!?

IF you had 5-700 dollars to spend on your truck what would you do?!

I have a 2006 f150 fx4
Mods done
Exhaust
Intake
35x12.5x20 tires
2.5" level
New engine replace 3k miles ago
Saleen supercharger with custom tune
Upgraded brake pads and rotors
Bed liner



What should be next
I was thinking roof rack and basket with led bar or two

Also maybe new Harley Davidson headlights

What are your thoughts??

oh nevermind, I get what you are saying. New headlights and a lightbar would be a sweet idea.

Forgot to say I have a double din and 2 10's under the back seat. And hard wired v1 radar and security system installed.

I am thinking light at and maybe some rear lights for the bed.

Anyone here run led bars that are mounted to their roof baskets??

Thoughts??

You could do what I've done if you go with a light bar

My truck is on the left. I have a set of Rigid Dually's on my roof rack currently, I plan on upgrading to light bars on all sides eventually. The light output from the rack is very good and I have nothing bad to say about a roof rack besides it making the truck taller. With my rack and spare tire, my truck is 7'10" so I am limited on where I can drive and park. Hope this helped a little.

I would go with Harley Headlights and with the money left over add some mods to the blower setup. Like fans behind the Heat Exchanger, Larger Intercooler Lines, Tranny Cooler, Rearend Cover, etc

Agreed^

Go with a bigger HE, add some fans and do the Harley headlights.. If you buy the HE from frozen boost you could easily have some money left over.. I'd also suggest a good catch can too..

I've got this one from them and it fits great..

I mounted a spal 7.5" fan behind and got rid of a lot of heat soak, and helped my air conditioner out too..
