Black Lariat SC,

Great job accessorizing your truck. It looks great!

The Snugtop is sharp...it also makes the truck look alot bigger.

The custom Texas flag Ford emblem is a great touch! (Where'd you get that?)

The carbon fiber kit and steering wheel kit look good, too....especially with your black interior. (Again, where'd you get those?)

I'm sure you get a lot of stares as you drive by. Nice!

JohnandDar,

Thanks and yes I get alot of comments. I even had a police officer stop me when I was going to an event and parking. He was directing traffic and hollared for me to stop.

I swear the truck grew about a foot when I added the snugtop. The reverse sensors sure help!

As far as the Texas Ford logo I purchased that from a company called Auto Trim Designs. Here is there website:
http://www.autotrimdesign.com/main.html

The carbon fiber kit was made by Woodview and I purchased it from a guy off e-bay. He was posting for a different truck and I asked if he could get one for mine. If you need his e-mail address I can get it.

I also changed the stock muffler and installed a Flowmaster Super 40 and it sounds great with the Airaid Intake. I may look into Troyer and get the upgrade on my PCM.

Very nice truck! Also some good looking mods. The truck looks as big as an Excursion with the Snugtop.

Is the carbon kit an actual replacement or is it one of those sticker dealies?

It is made of 10mil molded plastic that goes over the existing trim. Here is the link to the website that makes it.

Looks great!

You mind if I ask how much your carbon fiber kit was? Also, was it difficult to install?

The cost of the carbon fiber kit was 209.00 and that includes 8 pieces. Two for the center console, 2 for each front door and 1 for each back door. It is not hard to install just a little bit of prep work to make sure it sticks well. They do a good job in molding it but I noticed as I layed it up before the install there was a few small spots that still showed the woodgrain (and I do mean small). What I did was touch up those spots with black touch-up paint before the install so when they were put in place it all blended and you can not tell at all. I really didn't like the woodgrain that comes in the Lariat especially with the black interior so I am really happy with this mod.
