Hey guys,

I have been the owner of a 2012 F150 XLT SCREW 5.0 for a couple of months and thought i'd post some pics of a few mods I have done so far since I've never posted any pics before.

Mods so far:

1" daystar leveling kit
3M tint
HD headlights
HD tail lights with painted surrounds
TonneauPro cover
FX4 grill, recently painted in tuxedo black
Smoked mirror reflectors
Smoked 3rd light
blacked out emblems (not too sure about them though)
painted exhaust
painted mirror caps
Deezee tailgate assist (great mod for those who still dont have it)
5" antenna
5.0L emblems on the doors
removed 4x4 bed stickers

Mods on the way:
Fender flares
20" wheels with 33" tires (unfortunatley no one on this side of the world sells 6x135 wheels, will need to import them from the states)

Sorry for the crappy cell phone pics, will upload better ones once I get a chance.

Let me know what you guys think!

Looks great! So a 1" leveler evened that right out, i like it. I'm right with you on the 4X4 decals, mine are gone. Ordered the DeeZee assist and glad to hear it's a must have. What's the antenna? I did the $10 Scosche from Wallymart.

Nice. I especially like the grill. I am going to try and white out my grill. Did you have someone paint it black or did you do it yourself?

I gather it is not under the clear coat then.... Correct? Any hints? It is most likely the first thing I will do once I get mine.

wow, your truck looks amazing. How does it hold up with the high temps in the desert? Does your air filter need replacing/cleaning more often?

Thanks, yeah i wasnt too sure about getting a 2+" lift cause I've seen some nose high results. I figured a slight rake will be better than a nose high look, but glad it levelled out well..
The antenna I got from ebay.. started with a 13" stubby then down to a 3" which was barely noticable before going with the 5"

Thanks im still not too sure about it.. got it done at a shop

JKM

no it just peels off, was hesitant to do it at first but glad i did, gives a much cleaner look to the truck

so far holding up well in in 125 + F! The truck only has about 3K miles on it so far so I didnt need to replace / clean the filter yet. Might have too look into it soon though
