Oh man, I am STOKED!!! Picked up my F-150 from the body shop yesterday, because I had the bedside dent fixed, and got my 'new' paintable upper bumper and grill trim surround pieces painted to match and installed (they installed the pieces for an extra 50 bucks, so there was no reason to do it myself). Adding that to the FX4 rims w/ Goodyear Wrangler 32s and the exhaust, the transformation of my F-150 from looking like a plain jane XL work truck to looking like a MUCH higher end model is complete, for now

The first pic is how it looked the day I bought it and drove it off the lot. The next 2 are from early January, the day I got the rims and tires put on, and also shows the lovely dent I had in the bedside. Lastly, today, with the bedside fixed, and the new pieces on. The difference is incredible, I'm just amazed at how much better it looks. More pics will follow.

 

More pictures from today. Love my truck! Having 4.10 gears and Detroit True Trac installed this week, and I'll be done with the mods for a while

 

Looks great !! Nice job on the dent repair by the side exhaust too

 

i agree looks really good man. great work

 

Wow man I like it alot. I did the same kind of thing to my 04 XL. Nice

 

Thanks for the compliments guys, I really appreciate it!

Oh, and when I said I was done, I forgot about tint...Not sure how soon it's going to happen, but I will eventually be getting some mild tinting done on the windows. Should finish up the look.

 

Its amazing the difference it makes painting that bezel. It looks better. I see you painted the upper bumper. What are you going to do about the bumpers? If painted white, the truck would look even better.

 

Looks mucho better!

 

Damn, looks alot better man. Nice touch. Now just update your avatar pic to one without the dent in it.

 

Those wheels make the truck! Nice job!
