Bilstein is true to their word, ask and ye shall receive. Now it looks like I have no excuse to not spruce up the shocks after this past Winter, now just have to wait for no rain and warmer weather.

Just another unfinished project completed, removed the remaining tabs and mounting holes for the lower valance.

Clean!


I'm in the middle of an OE tow hooks install right now and was contemplating a similar shave... but I'm going to keep the air dam and then trim it 1/2 way up, following the midline as others here on the F150forum have done.

Meanwhile, I've opened a can of worms. Anyone who has had their front bumper off will know that plastic sheet/shelf that runs from the bottom of the radiator forward to the bumper... mine was either never installed correctly, or it did not stay put. I put it back, once, but it never stayed... so now I'm whittlin' up a little triangle of aluminum angle stock to support that thin flap. Then, back to the tow hooks install...

Thanks, yes I have had the pleasure with having the chrome bumper removed and replacing it with the powder coated one. I just so happened to sell the front bumper when I was at the Englishtown show a few weeks ago.

What kind of saw you use to shave it?

Milwaukee reciprocating saw with the metal blade. Just go slow and cleaned it up with hand files to remove the small filings that stuck from the heat generated.
