DO NOT GO TO F150LEDS.com

If you NEED LED for your headlights go to 4x4truckleds (he'll comment in here shortly, he always does)

BUT I would not suggest LED's in stock housing. For LED's in the rest of your truck, check your options on Amazon. Much cheaper with similar/sometimes better results than any of these resellers.

Stage3 or American Muscle are great for grill bars and floor mats.

Overpriced garbage that you can find on amazon or ebay for a tenth of the cost. And somebody are cool with cheap garbage products, but at a cheap garbage product price point not the asking price that F150LEDs has.

Kornfrk are you looking for suggestions on brands or where to find them?

Flares: Bushwacker are the best out there from the research I've done. They've got riveted and non riveted styles. (It's just style, not any actual rivets)

LED's: Berty is right, just check out amazon and ebay for the best prices. Don't be afraid to order outside of the country if the price is right. I've imported several LEDs straight from China.

Floor Mats: Weathertech and Husky are the best brands out there. I'm currently looking at both to decide which will be better.

Grill Bar: Does this mean a grill guard? Or is this a replacement grill? I'll again suggest amazon, ebay, or JC Whitney.

It'd help give suggestions if we had some details on your truck. What year is it?

I recently went with the Husky because I read Weathertech does not warranty the hole you always wear in there from your right heel. Husky does. So far, in six months no hole. Other than that, it's a tossup between the two.

Well if there's truth in that (not saying you're wrong, just don't know where you got your info) then I'll be going with Husky as well. I was leaning towards Husky already

I went with OEM mats off eBay seller. Perfect fit and they are rubber rather then molded plastic from other brands. Perfect OEM fit and coverage.

Grill - couple of options, check the forum.

LED fogs - XB LEDs from TRS are unbeatable in quality and output. LED bulbs in stock housing are cheaper though.

Other lighting options - take your time to read the forum. There are several options here. I personally like TRS, but 4x4leds is always here are has good reputation among forum members.
