Truck looks awesome man. Pretty weird that the mono KR trucks still have the adobe bed rails.

Thanks! Yeah, a lot of people have commented that it was weird. I also think that it is weird/different and probably given the choice from the factory, I would have said make it black. However, I don't mind it being tan and actually somewhat like it.

Well, if you ever feel like swapping for some black ones, I'm next door in LA and can make that happen. I have a 13' 2-tone green gem lariat with the blacks that are brand new.

Ford must have realized that it is a little bit weird because the Monochromatic Package for the 2014 King Ranch's includes black bed rails now.

Still love how your truck looks though with the mono paint, wheels, and tires.

So I guess I never really put anything on here after offering up my stock heads for sale to have the projector upgrade done. A member on here has offered to buy them from me, so I placed an order 3 weeks ago with raptorretrofit to get an upgraded set of HID heads done. Here is the setup:

'13 OEM HID Chrome headlights
Hella EVoX-R projector upgrade
50w Ballasts
Osram 66240 Nightbreaker bulbs (4200k)

I talked to Dawson from raptorretrofit today and he thinks he can have them done this weekend. So hopefully sometime next week, I can get these things installed

Hey il-duce, I just want to let you know(in case you don't already know) that your truck looks F****** AWESOME! I think I may have to borrow some idea's from your set up. That Solo Performance exhaust sounds great doesn't it? Thanks for the links of the LED's also!

Thanks man! I am quite fond of it myself. The Solo exhaust is definitely pretty sweet.

Well...I couldn't help myself. I got to looking at Stage3's website again and decided to buy the SCT x4 tuner with 5 Star custom tunes. It comes with 5 of 5 Star's custom tunes as well as free lifetime tunes. I went with this lineup:

Custom Tune 1: 87 Octane Performance Tune
Custom Tune 2: 87 Octane Towing Tune
Custom Tune 3: 93 Octane Performance Tune
Custom Tune 4: 87 Octane Fuel Economy
Custom Tune 5: 91 Octane Towing Tune

I certainly don't mind the Diablo tune I have currently, but I've just been reading too much about how great 5 Star's tuning is and decided to pull the trigger. Hopefully I can sell the Diablo Intune and recoup some of the money lost by not going custom from the get-go. I can't wait to see what all the hype is about.

I already have the Diablo tune on there. So just going a different route. I won't worry about the warranty until I need it
