Thanks.
Should have my tails and 3M vinyl today. Going to play with the vinyl on the grille shell. I don't really have a decided direction I want to go with the front end yet. If I don't like the vinyl or the match sucks then 3m has another I'll try and it would apply to the tailgate also.

Got my vinyl and tails in today. Almost all the vinyl got used but nothing got wrapped.
Lesson learned, I'm not a vinyl guy. Couldn't even get the mirror caps done.
So I called a vinyl guy, grille surround will get wrapped while I'm in Mexico. Along with getting the lift shackles installed.
Anyways here are the tails, gonna do the black outline when I get back home.

Thinking about one of these also. Like how its not near as bulky and some of the others, but they are proud of that logo.
This one or the ADD, either one PTM.

So my wife had the grille wrapped while Im in Mexico. The vinyl should match really well, Its 3M Metallic Black Gloss. I just have to wait until I get back home at the end of april to install it.

Not much has changed yet. Had the grille wrapped in 3M metallic black, pretty close match. I'll end up getting a painted grille. Had an add a leaf installed to bring up the back.
My truck wont be like this much longer, I'm on the company truck allowance program and apparently its too big. So I'm trying to do some research but if what I think is true then I can remove the spacer for the 6" lift (and level) and install the F150Lifts 0-3" coilovers and arrive at a 4" lift. I'm keeping the 35's but new wheels are getting ordered tomorrow.
Here's how she sits today.

Truck looks awesome man it's too bad you have to change it. Did your shop stack the 2" level spacers on top of the Zone spacers? I don't think the Boss coilovers would work if you just ran those with the lift kit. I'm thinking you would have to basically max them out and that would leave you with little down travel. You might just want to find some strut spacers out of a 4" lift kit and run those instead.
