Here are some pics of the plasti dipped emblems. Happy with them but might change it up soon. I plan on getting overlays from moody blue, I pm'd him a couple weeks back and have t heard from him.

Well I got bored today and stripped the F-150 emblems off the side and am painting them red and black. I sanded the chrome parts and painted them satin black, then I painted the inside red just like the fx4 appearance package has (trying to avoid spending $120). It is looking really good right now I am surprised. All thing nessisary were bought from lowes for a little less than $33.

Nice Man! I plasti dipped my emblems as well but might just paint the outside black and inside red because I'm going for a red and black look.

Well looks like you are the only one that wants to see this haha. Here are some crappy pics of the finished product. There are a few blemishes but I think I am the only one that really notices.

I actually picked up the Afe Mach Force XP Exhaust. It was only 395!! Sounds good from what I've heard, good price and is Made here in Cali. I was going to with the M400 Exhaust from Solo but here in Kali, it has to have a db level of under 90 to be legal. I highly doubt it's Kali Legal and plus I can always buy the Muffler from them to make it sound better if I want. I plasti dipped my bumpers and although there are a few mistakes, you can only tell if you get up close to the bumpers. I'm deciding now on what CAI I want to put on my truck.

Awesome! Let me know how the exhaust sounds when it is installed. I am looking at the solo performance Mach-x dual cat back with powder coated black tips. Planning on ordering when I get home Sunday.

I ordered the solo Mach X exhaust, AFE intake, and appearance package side stripe from stage 3. I am impressed by their customer service which I feel is second to none. They should be here by Friday, Can't wait!!!!

Nice Man!! I ordered the Airaid Intake too from Stage 3. I ordered the Mach Force XP from my local 4 Wheel Parts. I don't know when it will get here they quoted me around 10 days because Afe had to make em. I ordered it last Tuesday so hopefully by the end of this week it will be here.

Thanks guys. I can't wait for them to get here, it looks like the intake shipped today and I am guessing the exhaust and decals will ship tomorrow. I plan in powder coating the exhaust because I can get it done for dirt cheap. Am I the only one who thinks wrenching on your truck is half the fun? On a side note what are your guises opinions of after market grills? Looking at the smittybuilt M1 and the carriage works billet black. Think it would look good?
