He has a build thread for it on here, it's full raptor with a king ranch interior . And if anybody says to just buy a raptor they'd be wrong because he has half the cost into that truck and it's one of a kind being a king ranch with a 6.5 bed
wow I must be a one of a kind on here, because I personally prefer the 04-08 body style, but bought my 12 because I HAD TO HAVE a coyote/select shift.
that raptor conv is f'awesome though.

Does NOT bolt right up!!
With that said let me explain. 09+ sits three inches further out. The fenders bolt up but not the last bolt by the headlight. The upper bumper will connect to the fender but will hamg loosely in the middle with no support. The headlights need a bracket made to be bolted on. McNeil racing sells the brackets but they need to be worked an slightly cut to fit decent. The hood requires the 09+ hood hinges and bolts right up. The annoying part is the lower bumper bravkets need to be cut an re welded 3" out to bolt up to a 09+ bumper. Sounds like a lot but for under 100 u can get the brackets and bumper relocated
