Default 2018-2020 F150 Transformations

Happy Friday Everyone,

I recently bought a white 2020 F150 STX Supercrew and I am looking for some inspiration or ideas as to what modifications to make. A lot of the pictures I find are on the 2015-2017 Models which have a slightly different front end. Ideally I want to do a Raptor Conversion but that might not be in the cards for me. Thus, I am looking to see what I can do in order to change the aesthetics a bit over the next year or so. I know I will be doing wheels and tires and eventually along with new headlights and smoking my taillights but I'm looking to see what everyone has done with their bumpers, grilles, fenders and all that jazz. I have made a few quick things to it for the time being as you can see in the picture attached but it is nowhere near where I want it to be.

I appreciate any responses and hope everybody is staying safe during the craziness!

Externally, I think your truck looks great! Love the plain white with minimum stickers/decals. The black F150 emblem is enough there and definitely don't touch the grill...it looks GREAT! Maybe a stubby antenna and black headlights to keep the black/white theme going. I've also seen some nice white trucks with a black accent on the hood, but that is negligble.

CONGRATS on the ride!

Congrats on your new truck, everyone likes an STX and the black-on-white looks really slick.

If you want to add a bit of Raptor to your truck, some people do really nice tasteful levels with Raptor takeoffs, check out this one:

There's a link to a chart in my signature that shows many different level/tire combinations on OEM rims, I don't think I've seen any with those blackout STX rims so that could be an idea as well.

We all like to personalize our rides, but the clean and simple look your truck now has is hard to beat.
I like to start with the functional stuff like mud flaps to keep the dirt off the white, wheel well liners to lessen the contrast at the rear wheel, maybe some cargo management bits if you use your truck that way.
Congrats on the new truck. Drive and enjoy!

Truck looks great, I have an aftermarket grill on mine, but I do like yours too. The pic of mine is the grill and after I upgraded the low beams and fogs to LED. The lights make a HUGE difference, and I know if you're in SD out in the country, you'll need them... I grew up in Brookings and have family and friends all over there. I will say that I'm finding that customizing a truck is worse than when I had a Corvette...WAY too many options, but it's fun. Enjoy it.

LOVE that black F-150 on the back!!! I would seriously look into having the Ford oval on the front being painted white, with Ford in black- that, IMNTBHO, would be outstanding. Personally, I do not like the blacked wheels; I think they detract from the black/white contrast it seem you are striving for-I don’t necessarily have solution for this, but...

Some simple, inexpensive changes you can make are a flush mount AVS bug deflector, mud flaps, and rear wheel well inserts.

Default Thank you

I appreciate all of the feedback, you have given me some good information to go off! I am new to this forum but it seems that with some browsing around you can find a lot of pictures and information to coincide! This is my first truck and really the first vehicle that I have had the chance to start from scratch and build the way I want to so it has been difficult to sort through all the options to see what I like!

And I was so blown away by how that blackened F-150 on the tailgate looks, I didn’t really notice the oval on the back. There is a member on here who paints the ovals, and it looks gooooood; I would definitely have him do both of them. Maybe the front oval white with black letters, and leave the rear oval black with white letters.
