Check out some of the little add ons I have done to my truck that might help you out. Like the emblems I moved, the fender vents, the grab handles. All of these are done for under $100.00 each. If you have some of your own, let everyone know.

one I did was PTM my tailgate handle...cost me ZERO as I alread had the supplies from another project I did. I got the idea from:

http://www.fordf150.net

in the how tos section...some other good ones there too that are pretty cheap.

 

Cool dude thanks, anyone else?

 

acitoned badges
nightshade head and tail lights
Lights behind the grill
sand and paint the skid plate
sand primer and bedline frame
window stickers
seat covers/ stearing wheel cover

hope these come in handy

 

Dude, we need some pics

 

My stock exhaust pipe was a rusty red color and definately noticeable when viewing from the rear end. I went to AutoZone and bought some HighHeat Aluminum-colored spray paint and a $20 Truck/SUV tip to hold me over until I can allocate the funds for a real exhaust:



I'm going to go back one day when I get the rear tire off and mask more of it off and possibly do my muffler too.

Also, like said above, steering wheel cover and floormats:



Badge Swap:



Here's a good one for all you electronic buffs: Hard-wire and hide all of you electrical wires for a flawless appearance. I kno a guy with a kick **** system in his Chyrysler but theres wires EVERYWHERE! :O

 

Cool, lookin good dude.

 

I'd like to see pictures of the acitoned badges to see exactly how this turns out.

I'm right in the middle of painting my headlights at the moment.

 

There are a lot of guys on here w/ acetoned badges. When my black paint on my badges become scuffed up, I'll either acetone them or get a white paint overlay to outline the "F-150" on it.

As for headlights, mine are in so bad shape I'm just going to buy new ones ASAP.

 

i havent done to many of those... just things ive read on here and some that i plan on doing! im in the process of cleaning up the frame!

 

Thanks, I just found some pictures...not at all what I had in mind and not something I'll be doing anytime soon.

 

well im in the process of removing the chrome from my truck so i wont be acetoning either but it is a cheap mod that looks good

 

cheap and good rarely go together... id rather save up and buy somethign worth buying instead of splurging at the local corner store for any add-on possible

 

well as you see here there is things that you can do that look good and you dont break your wallet! for example go look at my belined toolbox! i had a old beat up diamond plate toolbox so i sanded primered and sprayed Dulicolors bedliner on it! in all it cost me about 30 bucks... thats cheaper than 250 for a new box and gives it a unique look... pics of it in gallery!

and another good cheap one is Emblem Overlays

 

no no.. that i agree with. heap sensible mods.. but many just get little odds and ends and just slap them on.
