Do you have an EcoBoost? If so, any issues with airflow through that lower grill? The HD grill looks awesome.
He's got the 5.0.

Great looking FX2. I really like the HD grill setup.

Wow bro, its looking like sex on wheels
The grill looks good, gives it a sportier look. I can't pull that off since I have tuxedo black.
How much did putting a harley bumper cost you in total.?

Im still on my quest to find staggered chrome saleen wheels. No cigar.

Thanks brother total about 800 paint, metal bumper, plastic bumper cover and lower insert and supports but well worth it. I just really wanted to get rid of that buck toothed look of those black plastic squares. Good luck on finding some Saleens found a set on eBay the other day but they went for like 1800 for just the rims. Look on Craigslist in Michigan I've found a few sets still on there for sale.

Beautiful truck! I love the look of the Harley bumper but IMO I think it would look much better with the grille black to match the bumper insert.

I used to think that a 2/4 drop on these trucks looks lame but with those 23s it looks pretty damn good! The harley bumper really sets it off and completes the package. I hope to see you in truck of the month soon!

I think it's time for you to move up to the new body style with me just bring your Saleens with you not any left out there. Miss my old truck though.

Thanks SLW I would love to be nominated the old truck was but it looks like Lightning domination in the Truck of the Month right now and I can't compete against that machine they are beautiful I have always wanted one.
