That is one very good looking truck, sir! I work around those often, and I can say surely that I have yet to see one quite that nice. All we have stocked so far are XLT's and Lariats.

Great looking truck !!!!! Do you have any outside side views with the lift? Trying to decide on the BDS 4" or 6" with stock wheels. Thank you for your time.

My schedule has been crazy so I have not had the chance to get some good outside pics but will post some shortly. For now I'll add an update to my build with my last couple mods.

Got my Magnaflow dual side exit behind rear tires installed. Sounds good but it's a resonator back kit, not a cat back kit. I have a straight pipe for a 2014 coming and hope I'm correct that it will fit. Just looking for a little more sound.

Kit fit and finish is awesome but unfortunately the spare tire has to be removed to make room for the tail pipes. Im not huge on this but my truck is lifted 6" with 35's so the spare was pretty much useless for me.

I also installed the "Platinum" letters

Have you thought about black caliper covers? I just bought take off 2015 platinum rims and tires for my 2013 FX4 in blue flame. I also bought black caliper covers. I am not sure if I am going to like them so I may not install them. I wish someone had a pic of the platinum rims with the black caliper covers.

Haven't thought about them. I don't mind the way it looks now. If ever I didn't like it if just paint them with hi temp paint.

Is it me or what,?, I had a 2009 and just got the 2015. RUBY also...>
This included preimum stereo sounds so bad, no sub, or tweeters that produce anything good. my 2009 was so much better. Now running the 3.6L ecoboost, I can't find a CHIP that works with this turbo model... The bull bars hit the front camera and sensers,finding it hard to upgrade to the truck I thought I was going to have!!

Agreed the stereo doesn't seem as good but after taking the advice of another poster and setting bass to max, treble to negative 2, mids to negative 4 and speed compensation to 3 it sounds WAY better. Call either 5 Star tuning or VMP and get an SCT X4 handheld. "chips" are not even the same as this option and you will not look back.
