Nice.

I've been contemplating beautifying mine as well. There's a Powder Coating and Chrome shop near my wifes work and it would only take a week to get Chromed on the cheap and just a couple days if I went powder coat. It definitely adds that extra touch.

Although in my trucks case, it would far nicer than any other paint on it, lol.

I ripped out my dash and all the trim and painted it the factor color. Had several spots that were chipping and peeling. I gotta say...it looks great. Got the paint on Amazon for about $15. I also painted the steering wheel.

I know you already saw them on the other thread. Not sure it counts as a 'mod'. https://www.f150forum.com/f6/what-di...9/#post5262823

CB Radios are great if you go off roading and if you get a dual antenna setup they make your truck look much more aggressive

The 4x4 Lower Valance Conversion isn't very much if you can find one in good shape at a junk yard or I bought my lower valance off of Amazon for about $80.



Also using pod lights for fog lights could be a simple mod too.
