Only other things I would do 1) Take all emblems off tailgate, even the ford emblem. 2) paint mirror pillars red to match.

No offense taken styx. I have the door buckets painted red & lt handles installed. Just waiting on my friend to install them. Also, I just received my Street Scene front/rear mirrors just like yours on day before Thanksgiving. Can't wait for tomorrow so I can drop them off for painting. Are you going to paint the lower valance or add a piece on from Roush. Your new sig looks good. Your truck was the one I got the idea from for the mirrors.

Truck is looking good!
Couple more ideas for you....
1. Paint or completly remove/shave the Antenna base. It pops right off.. Sand it down and paint it.
2. Do somthing with the side emblems... Maybe paint the letters red; Shave em'; Or add those side vents.. I'm sure you've seen em.
3. Paint the balck plastic mouldings behind each rear tire..
4. Spray some Nite Shades on the small blinker on each side mirror. Its kinda bright white now, tone it down with some Nite Shades.
5.Shave the taile gate... or at least the "F150" emblem on the tailgate.
6. Side Skirts and a new hood will really set it off. Or at least a fake hood scoop.
these are just suggestions and/or food for thought.
The truck is really looking good. Keep it up!

And this is just my opinion... I don't think the HD valance will really look that great on there... I personally would look into some other valance (Roush, FX2)
Street scene bumper would look nice.. IMO..
I just thing the HD valance will... not fit in well.

You're working on a spectacular looking truck...don't ruin it by being a jerk. The 'you don't have good taste' commnt was a very dirty stab...don't you think? Especially when the guy was offering up an opinion and certainly not 'attacking' you.
Comments/opinions are one thing....attacks are another. It's time to step up and learn the difference because, honestly, I'm sick of the stupid, immature, arrogant ignorance.

I'm not asking or looking for opinions.. I already know what I want the truck to look like. I'm more documenting the process by showing everyone. basically what I am getting are people telling me what I should do, being totally oblivious to the fact that I have EVERYTHING picked out already. I think you kinda overlooked that too.

Yep. You're right. I have bad taste too.
You're obviously getting opinions....and, as such, you're responding to them... this, in turn, encourages others to post opinions...
The way I see it now, you'll go along with opinions that you like and personally attack individuals that you don't like...
Long story short, you totally missed my point and read into it what yu wanted to read into it.
Again, you have a sweet ride and it's looking great...don't ruin an awesome thing by being a jerk.... not trying to be your dad here (trust me, I have much better battles to fight)...I am, however, trying to make my life easier as a moderator here; because, with comments like your 'you have bad taste' stab, there will be problems that arise from a smartarse, arrogant, my poop doesn't stink comment like that.
