Subscribed! Looks great so far! Any thoughts on switching out that last bit of blue for more black on your wheels?

YES!!! I am trying to find a nice and clean option for replacing them. I would love to put the Raptor caps in, but these caps are 3" and all of the other F150 caps are 2 1/2"... The previous gen trucks that had the appearance package had 3" caps, but the site I found them on claims that they only fit those wheels... So I will order once and try and swap it. If not I found some polished caps that I can sand and paint... They are in the plans though for sure!

There are some nice options for vinyl overlays for the centercaps on ebay. Many sellers will make them to whatever diameter you need.

Washed the truck today so I thought I would attempt to take some nice photos...

I have finally installed the painted badges form mbullock. He was awesome to work with! While I was doing that I took the front plate bracket off as well. Cleans up the front end IMO.

I also installed some Morimoto LED lights for the cargo area. They have a projector type lens on them and the way they are angled they aim at the tailgate not into the bed. I may change them at some point if this bugs me, but for now I can use them to flash the people behind me that ride with their brights on...

Wow, great looking truck! How involved was the installation of the LED headlights?

The headlights are stock halogens... I will probably end up with LED bulbs for a bit though until I decide to cough up for the Morimoto setup...

Quick cell phone shot of the LED cargo lights and the plate lights. I had the Morimoto LEDs in the cargo light but they did not make an LED small enough for the plate light. So me and my OCD ordered new LEDs from www.vleds.com to replace them and the plate lights.

These fill the bed better as they are 360 LEDs...

I will probably end up with headlight and fog light bulbs from them to hold me over until a full Morimoto front end swap!

Tinted the windows on the truck. 20% all around, even over the "privacy glass". The back windows are very dark, but from the inside the visibility is still pretty good!

Looks awesome! Do the plate lights make a glare with the backup cam? I’m looking to get better lights back there but worry about glare. I have BLIS, otherwise I would just replace the halogen reverse lights with LEDs.

Nothing crazy, but made an Amazon run and picked up a hitch plug, a locking pin, and some safety chain quick connects. Didn't know what hitch plug I wanted as I was trying to keep with the blacked out look.

A buddy of mine sourced the bed cover for me. It is the Flex model from Undercover. I really want the BAK Revolver X4, but for the price, it can stay for now...

Same buddy also sourced the box link anchors, so I ordered the base plates and got them installed.
