I think a deep purple would look killer on your truck myself to give it a subtle "pop" but keep the dark look theme intact. Of course, you could keep it the way it is too because it looks great

I think you should just give the undercarriage a nice black coat that holds up better than factory with a mag hytec diff cover. First u should regear though with those 37s. Dont get bumper replacements. They look nice on some trucks but ur truck would not look as clean with em. U should get rid of those two plastic rectangles on the front bumper and add some rigid lights to fill in those spots. Not sure why ford added those. some green lights would accent it nicely. I love black with green lights. Show trucks have nice interiors too. Don't forget to work on it. A kick*** stereo would help a little Maybe a nice aluminum adjustable drop hitch on the back. Get some pocket style bolt on flares painted black. They would look real nice with the extra lift. Bedliner if u don't already have one. Get the wheels painted a gloss black like ur truck. Take ur tailgate to a body shop and get it smooth in the middle where the ridge is. Just some ideas of mine that I think would fit ur truck nicely. It's already lookin sweet though

at first i was thinking a burnt orange would look kinda cool, but im like others and think a darker color would look best. if you dont wanna go black, i think and army green would set it off just right. hell that may even look better then black

I would say the Red Candy Metallic that ford has on the '11 F-150's (heard it's not an option on the '12). It's a darker colour, and looks awesome with black. Here's a couple reference pictures if you don't know the colour
