It'll look like my chrome one, but all black (PTM around the edge.) I'll be selling the chrome one soon.

woot.

So, once I get the new B pillars and get my painted factory wheels on, I'll post new pics.

I also ordered a ShurTrax Traction Weight thing from AutoAnything (10% off) for the truck bed for winter. That'll drop the rear a good inch or two...will get in the garage easily now. *crosses fingers*

 

should look good. cant wait to see pics with the wheels on too

 

I'll believe it when I see it......How old are you? Ya sound kinda like my dad. 1500 projects to talk about but no finished product.

 

I agree! Arent there new heads and tails to be put on as well? Maybe I missed the thread but what grille are you putting on? Im def doing the heads, tails, and pillars. Havent found a grille yet.

Quit screwing around as we need to learn from your mistakes...LOL

 

The HD/Raptor heads and tails are already on. See pages 1 and 3: https://www.f150online.com/forums/20...mps-added.html

P.S. I'm 40.

 

That is an awesome looking truck BD, Maybe one of these days I'll see it around the area once.

 

Thanks. I'm in the southern burbs. keep an eye out.

 

I'm better prepared for the new grille than I thought. It didn't come with the Ford emblem...but I had bought an extra set a while back. I also bought the black overlays from Patriot Decals for the grille. I also bought the black overlays for the wheel caps. It's funny...I expected the grille to be in one piece. The surround is separate from the mid-section. It's not a problem, just not what I expected. Anyway, the weather is going to be great this weekend, so I'll be able to get all this done...with the exception of the B pillars, which I am still waiting on the replacement set from Tasca.

 

What did Tasca have to say about the B-Pillars? Did they send you the wrong ones? Are the new ones they are sending a different part number than the first set of B- Pillars?

 

Looking forward to the pictures.

 

Yes...they gave me the wrong part numbers and sent the wrong parts. They're sending the new ones...but they won't ship until they get to their warehouse. I'm glad I did a "dry fit" before I tore the old ones off. They're making it good though and I know mistakes happen...just a bit disappointing. I still don't have an ETA on them, but would assume I'll have them sometime next week. I posted the new part numbers in my "Glossy B's" thread.

 

Before...





During...(she's naked...may be nsfw!)





During...(no emblem yet)





After...(woot! )






I'll take better pictures after I get the winter (painted factory) set on. Had to do a couple of touch-ups, so will post those later today or tomorrow.

 

That looks sooooo much better than the chrome wall you had there before. Congrats on the new grille, can't wait to see a pic of it with the painted rims too.

 

Looking good. Would look incredible if it was glossy to match, maybe a spring time plan?

 

Thanks, guys!

The outer surround is glossy...but now you've got me thinking...
