^ That's my long term plan. Either satin black the chrome on mine or PTM Magnetic & leave the black backing.
Same with the F & R ovals, satin or matte Magnetic & black.

I just finished this entire thread... Thanks, Summers, for taking the time to post everything. From one 5.0 XLT SuperCrew pwn0r to another, I love your truck! lulz.

Seriously. I like what you've done with it. We have similar tastes. One day I might slap together a thread of pics of the mild evolution of my truck. Meanwhile, rock on!

You know what they say: Great minds think alike. I know you've been F150 truckin' for awhile now, and I joined last April with my new-to-me, Certified previously-pwnt 5.0 XLT... but the very first wrench I turned on it then five months ago was to install Max Trac 1" lowering shackles... it's a 5.0 2WD (but w/o the e-locker)... etc and so on and so forth. I next did Bilsteins, wheels, tahrz, leather steering wheel, FoMoCo rear wheel well liners, blah blah blah and then a Series 70 3-chamber Flowmaster. It's eerie. Hahaha...

Anyhoo. Thanks again and I'll at the very least post up next week after I get my Roadmaster Active Suspension (leaf spring enhancement) installed.

Cooper offers a 305/55r20 with their ATP. Not a ton of road noise, tread looks like their old Zeon tire. I paid $294/tire at discounttiredirect.com. Search my name for pics, I have a build thread and am also a maxed FX4 on bilstiens but it'll give some perspective.

You may have mentioned this, but I don't feel like reading everything again. Are you going to get PTM mirror caps?

Yes, PTM mirror caps are in my future. I am going to buy a quart of paint eventually and have my dad paint caps, and all handles. Just not a huge priority right now. I kind of dont mind the handles being black since the wheels are, but I do want PTM mirror caps.

Well I am pretty set on the Flowmaster Delta Flow 50, may even dump it right before the axle. I gotta ask a few guys that have it if they left or removed the resonator.

Sounds good. I think a "hidden" exhaust would flow with your set-up
