I've gotten it quoted here in the New Orleans area and it was $895. I'm still on the fence about it. I know it will look spectacular once done but that's a lot of money I could spend on other mods. Still considering it.

It depends on the products they use and how much work has to be done to the paint prior to coating. CQuartz applications with a stage 1 correction to the paint usually starts off at $1,200.

Man, with paint like that, I'd never drive it. I would just open the garage door, stare at it for 10 minutes with a cup of coffee and go back inside. Twice daily for maximum effect.

That's the cool part. It should look like this for a very long time. You no longer have to dry it after washing because the water just falls off easily with a leaf blower and most of the contaminants fall off on the first rinse. It makes it so that you don't put more swirl marks on it during the wash process and there is a layer of protection.

A lot of parts sitting in the garage. Just waiting on the new bumper to get here to start installing.

Not much to update since Addictive Desert Designs delayed my bumper another 2-3 weeks. Thanks SEMA.

I did go ahead and order the upfitter switches from the Super Duty to wire in for all of the lighting. That should be here later this week so everything will be ready for the install once the bumper actually gets here.

So... this light switch panel that is originally intended for the F250s will actually fit in the F150? Or am I missing something? haha

Yes it is for the F250 that you can retrofit into our trucks so it is a complete OEM switch setup. There is some splicing you have to do with factory hardnesses. There is an entire thread on it in the 2015+ forum.
