Couple New Mods!

Alright i just put a couple new things on my truck.
I bought a Pair of Black Headlights from Ebay. And then went to auto zone and got some silicone and did a bead all around to make sure it would seal perfect. Then went and got a pair of Silver Star Blinker bulbs from auto zone . I didn't like the way the stock bulbs were looking. I also ordered a pair of black with red lettering ford emblem overlays. And also put on some new wiper blades. All in all i think it looks great i love the look of the headlights. my only complaint is that my grill looks horrible I don't understand why ford puts the Tan grill on a truck that has no Tan. So i went and got some paint that is suppose to match the factory black and a can of clear coat and ill be painting the honeycomb black soon.
Now for the pics

Mikey, you should look into the stealth bulbs they sell on e-bay.

They don't have that blue tint to them... more of a chrome look.

Nice truck.

I personally do not like the oval emblems at all though, black with silver, or chrome Ford letters would have looked better IMO.

When you paint the grill, paint the chrome surround to match.

Nice looking truck.

if you do want stealth bulbs get them from autolumination.com super cheap and just as good..had mine for over a year no problems....def paint the grille...tinting the tails will look good...headlights look great...and if you got the fog light tint kit i hope you got the one you cut to size...i did the same thing and bought a precut one and it didn't' even cover all the chrome so you could see the edges...thats y i painted my foglights...either way your truck looks great
