You got a lift or level on her?

Got Recon Black LED 3rd brake light
Recon Black LED tails.
Plasti dipped all emblems.
Plasti dipped gas tank door.
Black and blue vinyl emblem overlays.

I'll post pics up soon.

6" lift, damn i'm getting anxious for my wheels to get here. my headlights should be here tomorrow and the rest of my lights should be here around the same time as my wheels. im not sure what else i want to do to it, any suggestions are welcome. i have my sct flash tuner left over from my mustang so i might try out some e-mail tunes. ill probably end up plasti dipping my bumpers in the next few weeks as well.

the tire shop called me today, my wheels came in 4 days early.they look pretty BA! they give my truck a totally different look, the only crappy thing is when i was getting the wheels put on the UPS guy came with my headlights and i wasn't there. so i have to go down and pick them up another day.






definatley more rubbing with these wheels had to trim some plastic

All i did was wipe the chrome parts with a damp cloth then dry with a micro Fiber cloth. I used plasti dip search youtube and this sight for lots of info on it, its amazing stuff. First coat i just did a super light dusting and let it dry good, so the rest has something to Bond to. Then i just built it up light layer by light layer. Probably 6 or 7 coats, the more coats the easyer it will be to remove if u want to.

got my headlights put in. i had to get my buddy who's a second year electrician apprentice to help me, the instructions were horrible (even had spelling errors!) they were for an older f150, my lights had more wires then the instructions showed, even all the videos online were for older f150's anyways we got it figured out and they look sick!!
