Default 2012 F150 Platinum Ecoboost Build

I know it's a bit late but I'm finally doing the thread for my 2012 Platinum Ecoboost build thread. Had the truck for a little over 3/4ths of a year now. Still sits stock currently but I've gotten a good amount of upgrades for it so far.

Bought OEM Ford 2014 Superduty style tow mirrors with all power options and just got my lightbar mounts powdercoated the other day. Pics are of my truck right now and the Alpine Designs Offroad lightbar mounts before and after. Also posting pictures of what the truck should look like once done

Default Paint to match superduty style tow mirrors

As you don't know yet I bought a set of superduty style tow mirrors a few months back. Has every option you can think of in them. Just got them back from a buddy and they look incredible

Are you going to get the factory switch so you can do the power extend on the mirrors?

Default Bit of a nice upgrade for the new year!

So there comes a funny story behind these wheels. I had been searching for 22x14 Fuel Hostage wheels on Custom Offsets page, they weren't available at all according to the site, so I settled to buy a set of 20x14 Fuel Hostage wheels from Custom Offsets page, had some trouble with tracking my order throughout the process, until they show up at my door step being the size that I originally wanted to begin with. Thinking the employees at Fuel had a bit too much eggnog over the holidays. But hey, I'm not complaining.

So now my wheels are here, and theres not much left until the truck gets lifted besides completing the lift kit and tires
