First thing I did to mine was add bilstein 5100s all around and 33x11.5 toyo AT2 extremes. Ride is still very comfortable and don't notice any road noise from tires.
oh and matching window tint on driver and passenger windows.
Congrats on your new truck...she's a beauty! I had this '13 Platinum that was leveled with Bilstein 5100 shocks..Toyo 275x60x20 AT2's. Nothing radical but still looked decent and made a great daily driver.
Thanks everyone. Some good looking trucks on here!
Well needless to say the truck only stayed stock for about a week. I started off small though and put in some LED reverse lights in last night. For $20 off amazon, these things light up the night!! (Link below)
Also next week I am getting a 2inch Rough Country Level Kit put on it. So I'm excited about that. And then come fall time and winter will be the big stuff, like CAI, new exhaust, and probably a custom tune.
"Along the same lines as yours" maybe a little subjective but here is mine.
It is the right color, a 13' F150, 4x4, Screw & Ecoboost. Thats about where it ends between our two trucks.
Mine isn't leveled, its mostly stock with a few nic-nacs.
What light set up to you have? Looks like you replaced the puddle lights and put on some running board lights too? And where do you have those front end lights hooked up at?
Also I am digging the ecoboost "Ford" Insert. Where did you find that at? Sweet looking truck man.

I replaced the puddle lights with Stage3 Brightlites version.
The AMP retractable step LED's were removed and replaced with Rigid "A" series lights (4).
The rest of the LED's under the truck are the magnetic LED's you can stick to most anything. They are LUX Lighting systems, monster version.
All the underbody LED's are tied back to the circuit for the AMP step lights. I added a relay to carry the load but used the AMP trigger wire for the relay.
They are not switched as I don't have a desire to run these while driving. I added them only so that when I unlock my truck or opened the door they came on so I could see where i step at night.
I'm in Texas and like to hunt, early AM trips in the dark in the woods are dangerous. Two things you really have to watch for, Rattlesnakes and cow turds... I really don't care to step on either one on the way to the hunting blind. ha
Plus I have the Remote Access app on my truck that I can remote start from anywhere from my phone. If I'm in a large parking lot I can remote start my truck and it will light up like a UFO a mile away, I no longer have troubles finding my truck.
As far as the lower grill it was from a Canadian company almost 5 years ago, I can't remember the name and can't find in my files. It came black and I painted the Ford letters to match the truck better.
Thanks for the compliments, not bad looking for a 5 year old truck.
Can I please get more details on that light bar in your grille? Mounting and setup wise?
TIA!
Its a Rigid 30" SR series combo flood and spot.
I basically cut the top area of the grille out and mounted this to fit more flush and its just bolted to the two upright braces behind the grille.
I don't have the links but there a several people on here that mounted bars like mine to the 2 upright braces. Most prefer behind the grill for a more stealth look. I was looking for maximum light so cut the grill and wedged it in there.
I have it wired to my headlight brights to come on when I use them and also wired an in cab switch to control them independently of the brights.
