Default F150 to Raptor conversion

Has anybody done one of these? They look pretty sweet but I think everyone would like some actual reviews. McNeil racing and fiberwerx both make one and McNeil racing also makes a 97-03 to 06 f150 conversion that looks sweet. Every body post pics of their 1 piece fiberglass front ends, conversions and raised fenders. I don't see a lot of them on here. Here's some pics of the conversions from the sites.

Some people aren't trying to make it a raptor. It's a pre runner conversion with long travel suspension. Don't fool yourself some of these can **** on raptors...

I think they are pretty cool so what if its not a raptor I'd take my truck places I would never dare to take a 50 thousand dollar raptor I'd do the front end if I had the extra cash

that red one is kinda ugly, too big IMO, the first one was one of the first raptor fiberglass on a 97-03, and it looks fairly decent. most people dont have them because theyre expensive. the long travel suspension is also very expensive, by the time your finished with the front and rear suspension it will cost almost as much as your truck.

Don't do a raptor conversion. Just get some nice pre-runner fenders

I was thinking I would build a 00-03 scab with a 5.4 5 speed and getting one ode these kits and making a truck that could out do a raptor. Not trying to be a raptor I just think it looks cool.
