Talking *Raider's Rig Build*

OK, so I'm gonna jump on the wagon and do a 'build thread'. My rig is in for a complete transformation, and should be done by December or so. Basically, all of the mods that are coming up are a big present to me for surviving my accident. I feel like I deserve it... lol


2008 F150 STX, 4.6L 2wd
Silver
Fogs, tow package

Here is the truck, bone stock when I bought it in December of 2008:


Next came the S&B CAI (which is amazing btw...) :


Then HIDs from Retro Solutions, 8000k 35w- and the Daystar leveling kit/bigger tires (285/70/17) :

I went with the Saleen grille, which is my favorite grille for our trucks


HD headlights




And most recently, front tint (15%) and Westin nerf bars


And today, got the Westin bull bar installed

Yeah, post what you're going to do next. I think you should debadge it also.
Did you notice any difference by installing HIDs in the fogs? I'd debating about ordering a pair for my truck
