Gave in and I'm going to finally make one....
Excuse lack of pictures since I lost all of my old pictures due to a new phone.. I'll try my best..
In the beginning: 2011 FX4 Ebony Black, Ecoboost
First mod: Wheels and tires. I got these before ever joining the forum, and at 16 years old, I impulse bought and was unhappy the next day. I got 17" Gear Recoil wheels, and 285/70/R17 Nitto Terra Grapplers.. (And yes that's a rainbow lol)
Once this was done, I thought Recon Headlights would be a great investment! At the same time, I purchased SOLO performance 4" single exhaust kit!
I liked the Recons until I had to use them as actual lights.. So yeah they were also on the list to remove..
Next mod was a leveling kit. I went with the BDS 2.5" and no rear blocks. It sits perfectly level!
A couple days later, Joseph completed my retrofits, which finally replaced the Recons!!
I also got halos that can change colors, which has been really unpopular on the forum, but whatever lol
Quick output shot from inside the truck
And the latest mod.. Replaced the Terra Grapplers! I went with Trail Grapplers instead, 35x12.5
That's how she sits. Hope you guys like it! Thread should be updated here pretty soon, got new speakers and a couple subs on the way, as well as some AMP power steps.
Many mods to come!!
(Other mods not pictured, or too subtle to mention: Moody Blue overlays, plastidipped mirror reflectors, USB2, running board removal)

Here's a couple YouTube videos.. first one is of the RGB Halos, and I know that many of you won't be a fan, but a lot of people my age seem to like them, and I do too! The second link will be a sound clip of the SOLO exhaust kit. I took this video when it had 1500 miles on it, so there was a bit of carbon built up in the pipes. This exhaust system continues to get deeper in tone, and I LOVE it!
