Good to see it finally all came together for u. Was quite a cluster f*ck there for a while. Looks great. What graphics did u decide on or are u going to just leave it without graphics after the paint job?

The way the sausage bends right now Im leaning towards all black trim / bumpers/ fender flares instead of the factory grey and then black center of hood with black splash graphic and a custom made white raptor decal to go in the center of the black area on the hood. I love the black/white contrast.

No updates lately , Ive been driving it a little bit tightening stuff up etc and been busy with christmas stuff. I didnt lift the back , I did the 3 inch leveling kit on it which made it sit level before I did the panel swap but the way ford made the raptor panels makes it look jacked up in the rear!

Put a rancho 4" on it that would help make it look more level. Then if it still doesn't look level you could add a 1" level on top of the lift. That would give it a really aggressive look!

I think you could get a AAL kit and it should give you the rake you want.

That is spectacular.

If you don't mind me asking, how much has the build cost you? Great work!
