Default Out Of Ideas

I'm in need of some new suggestions for mods.

I've done all my lights (except the dash lights cause in afraid of hotspots).
Aftermarket audio.
Lift
Tires/Rims
Exhaust
Tonneau cover
Dixie horn
HIDs
Backup Camera
Painted emblems and mirror caps

I need some new suggestions on what to do! I'm getting bored.
Does anyone know of a company or individual who sells custom emblem inlays?

theres a ton more you can do.

intake,
force induction
custom tunes
you say HIDs, which means your probably running them in OE housings, time for real retrofits
you have a lift, so you off road? add some off road lights
lockers
....

I actually just did a retrofit into my spec-d housings! what a nightmare.

The lights are a good idea.

Thanks!

When you say inlays, do you mean these? If so, he is even a Canadian seller! If you mean overlays to put over our oval badges, I plasti-dipped my front oval and put a $4 6" decal over it from a seller on ebay, that way it is totally reversible!

I cleared over this one for the tailgate, but my grill oval is just black plasti-dip with the overlay.

That's exactly what I mean!!
Thanks.
Was gonna just put tape over them and cut out the ford so I could make it custom like that since I heard Patriot couldn't sell them anymore.

Here is the link for the ebay seller I buy the oval overlays from. The 6" fit my grill perfect, but it is an FX2 7" oval. For the rear tailgate 9" oval, I bought the 8" size on ebay (the one I have pictured above):

Caution though, to make the ovals look perfect, you have to sand down the raised "Ford" script of it will show through the plasti-dip and vinyl. Or you can not worry about it to much and just spray the oval with dip and install the decal right over it.
