The description on the product page seems to cover all bases, what did you need to know?

Just wondering if anyone on here has done it. How easy the actual installation and stuff like that is. General reviews, installation write-ups and experiences.

Personal experience with the kit, understandable. Just looking at the description tells me your going to have to do some trimming and then painting to match is going to cost a few hundred and to make it look right your going to need Raptor wheels and tires. That alone will probably set back a thousand or more. Then there's the suspension differences to get that "Raptor Stance" that kit probably another couple thousand.

Going for just the look in itself is way more expensive than I would want to spend, I think I would probably just trade in my truck and get a true Raptor before I went thru all those headaches and wallet vacuums.

Haha yeah you're probably right. I would definitely trade in if I could get the darn ecoboost engine in the raptor.

I don't understand how a grill, hood, and fenders are only $1, 300...

Am I missing something here?

With a truck as beastly looking as it is why in gods name would you want a 6 cylinder in it? Man that thing needs to growl like it looks and that only comes with 8 cyls.
