'04 - '08 Truck Picture Thread...

Been away for a little bit, but gotten a lot done recently. Paint matched new bumper, powdercoated the chrome rear one, two 14" bars mounted behind the grill, pods with paint matched rings mounted in the fog holes. Not all pictured though haha. Plus a start to now picture, but the top truck isn't mine, just one similar to how mine looked when I got it.

I bought a new primered bumper and had the dealership I work at paint it. Whether you get a new bumper or have a chrome one, I'd have it powder coated. It's 1/2 to 1/3 the price of paint and WAY more resistant to rock chips. I have connections, so I paid $50 to have the front painted, but connection-less powder coat was only $130 to sand blast the chrome and powder the rear.
If you want to paint anything though, automotivetouchup.com has nailed my paint code as well as the silver that comes on the 6.7s. I've painted my emblems, fender badges, mirror caps, and door handles with it, and my buddy painted his 250s grill shell and chrome bumper. @bennie87
It was on the tracks for less than 10 seconds @powerranger262 
Had my camera app open, jumped out, snapped two pics, and jumped back in.
Thank you and yes sir! All work done by me, Mini D2S projectors and 4500k XB bulbs. Everything is from theretrofitsource.com and the highest quality, heaviest components you've ever seen for HID gear. It's not really hard at all to do either. [MENTION=83617]e2dx[/MENTION]
Just 20x10 -24s. I'm flattered that you thought they were 12 wides though haha. The -24s have 4.5" of backspacing, and 12 wides have 4.75" with the tires stretched a little, so 12 wides stick out less than 1/2" more than mine. Setup has freaking 3k miles on it and I already want 22x12s and 37s [MENTION=158837]Webb_4x4[/MENTION]

06 f150 4x4
This is the way she looked in the for sale add on Face Book. Needed a left reinforcement, left fender, radiator support, left headlight upper bumper filler and Front bumper. Got her pretty cheap. 116,xxx on the clock. the 5.4 is nice and quite on a cold start up and still quite after she is up to normal operating temp. The left side wasn't damaged in the wreck. Still has a clean title, bought her from an individual.
This is the way she sits as of today. Still a long way to go but I think headed in the right direction. I think she will look pretty nice when she is finished. will be great for my hunting and fishing trips. Will also be nice to haul the grand kids in with the 4 doors

If you don't mind me asking, what can you pick a wrecked f150 like that up for?
