installing lightning headlights and harley davidson style corner lights tomorrow.
repainting front grille and other faded plastic parts sunday.
ordered 285 65 18 nitto trail grappler tires, got them for 265 a piece at the local ford dealership.
I also ordered black and chrome xd spy wheels, estimated arrival time is the 27th so hopefully they will be on sometime next weekend.

Not my favorite rims but it'll look good. I say keep off the brush guard to much clutter it have a nice clean look right now. What headlights are those? I really like em
