But Truck looks sharp! I agree with what Str8t Six suggested. As well as Ford emblem overlays to match the truck. But it does look good!

Mr six dident suggest it tho. He down right told him to do it. Suggesting is one thing which this thread is about suggesting ideas. But mr straight told him what to do. Thats just not the kind of thread this is. And not the kind of thread any thread should be.

Like the truck!

I'd do some more PTM (mirror caps, grille surround, bumper pads). Custom grille and/or some new heads can make a big difference in the front end

C'Mon Man... quit while you are behind. You are gaining a bad rep here. I had a bug deflector on my truck and it didn't take long to realize it was useless.... and deflated the look I wanted for my truck. I am surprised you are not bashing me for saying it looks like crap. str8t six posted his opinion... which is why we are here. I agree with him and will add............... put some Lightning style heads/corners on 'er

Nice rig dude... and I still want yur step bars

I'd just get some quotes, I don't expect it to be very expensive. The bumper pad is the black plastic above your chrome and under your grill

XLT mirror caps come off (from what I have read multiple times) to PTM. Top bumper pad pops off easily also. Took mine off to paint black. Lower valance can't be much harder, but a little more time. If you are planning on a paint shop to PTM them, take them off before hand and leave the individual pieces at the shop... and still drive your truck.

Truck looks sharp man! But I agree with everyone else, the chrome and stock heads could use a change for sure. If you had them ptm'd or blacked out it would really clean up the styling of the truck, but then again I may be a bit biased against chrome.. haha
