Hell of a rendering. A few thoughts:
I think the Morimoto LED headlights would be an interesting swap... they'd play into the futuristic look you've got going.
IMO, the orange calipers clash... the rest of the truck is so clean that those look out of place. Maybe they tie into an interior design element?

I wish I had half your skills...

Thank you !

I'm not a fan of those Morimoto headlights... To me, they look gawdy , and remind me of 2018 Escalade headlights lol . I didn't realize my build looked futuristic but I'll take that as a compliment

My intention with my build was to create a different look while using OEM parts. ... For instance

Hood- is still my stock hood, just has OEM Mustang, functional heat extractors and BMW M3 hood skin grafted
Grill- OEM F150 Sport Lariat fabricated (cut, molded, and sectioned)
Bumper- OEM stock 15 F150 with OEM Mustang lower grill and OEM Focus RS doing lights
Headlights -OEM F150 retrofitted
Bed- OEM Raptor aluminum bedsides....

I choose pearl orange to be different and to break up all the black between the tires, black wheels, and black cross drilled rotors. Everyone has red, blue is popular, and took a chance on orange. I hated it first too but it's grown on me.


And..... it's not as bright after all the road grime, dust, etc gets covered on it lol

Wow.........looks like a ton of work but looks awesome! Not a huge fan of orange either, but it ties is with the amber strips strips on the headlights so I say keep it!

Lookin' great! Agree on the heads, a bit on the ricy side to me. Waiting to see this done with the Raptor sheet metal, it's gonna look pretty bad azz from the rear.

Really, REALLY like the widebody idea using the Raptor box. What are your plans to make the rear rims flush with the new box?
