Default 06 Raptor Conversion

Hey all,
Heres another raptor conversion for yall.
I have an 06 that I did a bunch of stuff to then one day while offroading I caught ice around a corner and flipped into the ditch. The accident gave me a perfect excuse to do the raptor conversion. I started but getting another truck and taking the cab from it then started on the raptor parts. I wanted as little fiberglass as possible so all the parts are OEM raptor parts (fenders, hood, grille, valance) except the bedsides cause raptors don't come with 6.5' beds.
Not 100% done yet buts heres some pics of the progress!

Looks great! looking forward to seeing it all done! quick question, you have a 2" levelling kit on it. did you put add a leafs or blocks on the rear or just leave it? (sorry new to the whole leveling and lifting thing) looking to raise my ride height by 2-3 inches

nope, I just have a 2" in the front. The only thing I did to the rear was replace the stock shocks to Fox 2.5 external reservoir ones but that does nothing to the ride height.
