Truck looks great man. I don't know if I would change too much. Maybe remove the bug guard and paint the inside of the corners black to match your heads. I'm just reaching here because it looks great as is

Thanks man, just wondering if you know how to get the corners apart to paint the inside? ive been thinkin of that for a while and just havent figured out how, as for the bug guard i like having it on there to help deflect rocks and stuff from the windshield as i drive down dirt roads quite a bit.

I would assume it would be along the lines of this: https://www.f150online.com/forums/ar...eadlights.html
Post #80 by jlstang shows our body style with corners and heads painted.
And ya I didn't know if the bug guard was a function thing. I'd keep it on if it keeps the truck cleaner

I agree. I don't see any more that needs to be done than what you already have. Looks tough

looking good so far but affordable id say paint the corners. talk to blackedoutv6 or raptor05121 for a how to on it and maybe some clear fogs from ebay.

other than that maybe a 99+ front bumper and some ptm bumpers or bedliner on them
