Default Project RBP Ecoboost F150 FX4

Well as some of you know I sold my 2004 f150 fx4 that was my baby..lots of blood sweat and tears in that one, but it was time for a new project so I ordered a oxford white fully loaded 2012 f150 fx4 ecoboost in supercrew with the 6.5 ft bed this time! That was the only thing that bugged me about my 04. I plan on going a different route with this one. I loved the look of my old one and even being 7 years old it still turned more heads than any other truck in my town but it was killing me on gas and was a pain maneuvering around town and on long trips. And as you know when trucks are lifted that high no matter how much money you put into them they still demand more whether it's for tie rods, wheel bearings, blah blah blah. You've got to pay to play I know. So anyways I decided to keep this one lower and go with the camburg performance suspension kit. That way I will still have that awesome factory ride if not better and still clear 35's. And it will be a machine off-road! It's also gonna be rocking a black and white theme with almost all RBP products. I'm typing on my phone so when I get home tonight I'll add pictures of my old truck and pictures of all the mods going on the new one! So here's s list of mods I'm going to be using. Some already purchased, some not yet.
--Camburg performance kit with deaver rear mini pack.
--Fiberwerx fenders front and rear
--35x12.50r20 Toyo MT
--BMF REHAB wheels 20x9 (not even out yet)
--Full LED conversion in and out
--RBP 4x5x12 black exhaust tip
--RBP Rx series grill black
--RBP Black Hitch cover
--RBP license plate frame/matches grill
--RBP RX 3 Nerf bars
--heartthrob 4 inch exhaust
--Roush or injen intake not sure yet
--xetronic 8000k 55watt HID heads/fogs
--Custom made badges from Steve at "billet badges" that say RBP Twin turbo ecoboost edition.

I'll use this thread to update my progress as soon as I get the truck so keep checking in!

Sounds like me and you got some similiar tastes my friend! Can't wait to see the finished product! I'm also deciding between roush or injen.. I'm probably gonna go roush though.

Thanks guys I'm pretty stoked, A lot of the RBP stuff came today. It's making it even harder now staring at these boxes that I can't even install because the trucks not even here yet!

@stormtrooper: I wasn't sure what color i wanted to go with for my new truck it was between black, white, and sterling grey. I liked black but it's a pain to keep clean and gets swirl marks easily (and this is coming from someone who details his truck once a week) not to mention the whole "murdered out" thing is starting to get over done. Then After seeing a few grey ones in town i noticed it's not the same grey as my old "dark shadow grey" fx4 and I don't think it would've looked very good with black wheels so that was out. Then I saw your truck and another white one on this site that had the black and white theme goin on and I said Yep! THAT'S IT! Love your truck man!

Sounds like a good plan man. I can't wait to see how it shapes up.
