AJaxz984's 14' STX Build
This should be a fairly slow build over time as funding allows for mods to be purchased. I'm not a big gear head nor off roader so I doubt I will ever get into lifts or crazy tuning stuff that involves getting into the engine. More or less aesthetic stuff to make my truck unique from the other 1,000 F-150s on the road!
Looking for some opinions, and from the community as I move ahead with my mods.
On to the specs: I just bought the truck before the 4th of July 2014. It is a 2014 F-150 STX 5.0L V8 4X2 with the Sports Package. Came with a bonus bedliner which I didn't pay for
So far I've already:
- Installed weather tech floor liners front and rear (not pic worthy)
- Basic LED conversion (pics to come)
- Embroidered headrests (pics to come)
Looking/Interested in:
- Projector headlights
- Grille conversion (strongly considering reider's Raptor grill)
- A cover of some kind... BakFlip?
- Tinted windows
- Chrome accessories (door/tailgate handles, sideview mirror accent, tailgate trim accent etc.)
- Cold air intake and exhaust muffler and/or tip
Thanks for taking the time to look over my build and your opinions/encouragement is appreciated!

Ok so here is a quick easy mod to customize your interior for a reasonable price and supports a member/vendor.
I got "STX" on the 4 larger headrests, and "F-150" on the smaller middle headrest.
Big kudos to Bdukes55 - "The Embroidery Guy" whose communication and turn around time are second to none. Great work too as you can see below!

I wouldn't say he is "my dude" per say. I just happened across some of his work on the forums here and sent him a PM. I recommend you look him up and check out his album which is full has a sampling of his works. His name is Brady, username - Bdukes55. He also has a thread with some of his work and some pricing information: https://www.f150forum.com/f38/f150-h...oidery-247669/
I found the pricing to be very reasonable. His communication was superb as well as the turnaround time. He sent me pictures of several color options to best match my seat stitching. Once he received my headrests in the mail he had them embroidered and back in the mail in under 2 days. Highly recommend his services. A+

Another quick and simple mod - LED lights. In total I replaced the interior dome and map lights, the cargo lights, license plate lights, and reverse lights. I think most people know by now what these look like, but just for S's and G's, here are a couple B&A pics. Enjoy!

This is the mod I have been looking forward to since I bought my truck. The F150 Raptoid Upper and Lower Grille with LED light kit! Picture quality and lighting is pretty crappy. Will get some glam shots whenever my brother stops over with his fancy shmancy camera. For now, these will have to do.

Used the money I got from selling my stock grille to reinvest in my truck. Ordered and installed a BakFlip G2 Tonneau Cover. The install was very simple. One minor hiccup was the rail interference with my dealer installed OEM drop in bed liner. After cutting a small section out, it installed in a jif. Seen below!
