I hope you all don't mind...I've been on here almost a year and haven't put up a build thread. I don't have much to show, but I think it's time.

A little about 'The Truck':
She was called Snow White once (not by me). For now, I'll just call her 'The Truck', pending something better.

I traded a 2010 Ford Fusion S w/6 Speed Manual (I'm going to miss the manual!).



First Mod was a Leer 100R Topper (it took a month or two, so tint went on first):



Pinstripe:
Prior to putting it on, I had a conversation with an APD Officer concerning the first tint. A fix-it ticket was issued and the tint was removed and verified. According to AK law, the darkest allowed without a script is 70% VLT. A script allows for 40%. I used to have one, but thanks to APD harassment of my doctor's office, I have to have a ticket in hand with an attorney and notary present. So, my truck has about 40% of tint on it now with a 20% 5" Brow. So far I've been left alone.

Looks good man.

LED fog bulb is made by Race Sport. It's the H11. Thanks! If I were you I'd go with the one just above the 100R, the 100XR. It's a different back window and latch configuration. Wish I had...

Thanks!

Here is a shot of the actual LED bulb:


Shot of the Arc Rite Brush Guard Installed w/the 20" SR Spot/Flood (I cleaned up the wiring and reconfigured the lights last week and forgot to take a photo)


Side Shot w/FX4 Graphics & Taillight Guards (thinking of taking them off)


Shot of the Back-Up Camera w/projector LEDs installed

Nice bull bar, it gives highlight to her color.

Before I came out to work I installed an S&B CAI w/a dry filter. Makes some good sounds when the turbos spin up.


I also changed out my AVS In-line Ventvisors for the AVS LowPros. Much better, and my window goes all the way up as designed. Now...what to do with the other ones...

I traded wheels with another FX4 Owner.



Cheap edit...I've already removed the White FX4 sticker. I thought it was too busy. Trying to decide if I want to lose the pinstripe and/or the tail light guards.



Winter running gear on...'04-08 20" Wheels w/275/60/20 Cooper Discoverer M+S Studded Snow Tires (dislike the studs, couldn't argue with the price tag...).



Mt. McKinley was hiding...



Finally got a chance to try the lights in the dark...first shot is low beams (factory HIDs).



Second shot is obvious...but I'll explain anyway. 20" SR Combo, Dually Driving Beams. All courtesy of AK LED Industries, Anchorage, AK. I dropped the truck off and they had the installation done pretty quick. No complaints.
