No but ill take some. It was really easy just made up 2 u shaped brackets out of som extruded steel strapping i had painted it black and bolted it to 2 of the bumper mounts. Literally took less than 10 mins. I need to adjust it cause lighting in the barn was dark when i put it on. I thoughit it looked pretty good i couldnt believe how large the opening was in the valance! LMAO!

Looks awesome Rich!!! And I see you have Harley headlights too!! I'm thinking of selling my retrofitted Harley headlights.

Well they're not going anywhere yet. Since my F150 is my DD I need everything to be reliable. Good thing I had my L headlights with bulbs in my tool box. I may give HIDs another shot later when it's my show truck. I just don't understand how some cars, ie BMW, Mercedes Benz, Lexus etc etc. come with projector headlights and HIDs. And there stuff is reliable. I wonder who makes those kits?

Have you tried Philips or hella? They both make great Hid's from what i read up on and i think Philips dose most of the Hid filaments for ford on a lot of the newer cars. Just what ive read on line though. Been looking into retrofit's for ever.

If you do sell them let me know. I'd be interested in them. Been looking for something better then the DEPO ones I have now.
