Goin for the 'white out' look

had this done for a while but im just now showin some pics. excuse the bad pics, they were takin with my phone.

Heres the rear. I am painting the tailgate handle to match and removing that extra FX4 decal next week.




Heres a front badge. also got bored and painted the antennae. haha



Front end. can someone help me find a white bugshield for the front? mines cracking!



Sorry if the pics are HUGE. i tried making them smaller for ever and no success..

you have alot of black for going for the white out look

paint the valance, top bumper pad, fenderflares, and bed rail caps

for the bug shield i say dont have one at all but if you insist get a white one and paint the back side of it not the front

I would get rid of the bug guard also. Speaking of things to get rid of I would loose all the "ford" logos, nothing against ford but I think a vehicle looks much "cleaner/smoother" without em (its also much easier to keep clean), otherwise nice!

Im gonna throw this out there...
1. loose the bug gaurd as already mentioned
2. paint ALL the other black items on the truck (except the tires of coarse)
3. paint your tailights white (im gonna do this to mine soon)
4. When i get my Fabtech im gonna be having it powder coated white also (i believe this voids the warranty though)
5. Put some white light covers over your offroad lights... and paint or powdercoat your light bar white!

Theres a few as you can tell ive been thinking of this stuff for awhile... im going for an all white/black look!

Truck looks good so far!

hey guys. wow lots of feedback. thanks. as of right now im not going for an ALL whited out look but a MOSTLY whited out look. here are my plans i have so far for the next month:

paint tailgate handle
remove rear FX4 decal
paint antennae base
?paint side mirror shrouds? - comments?
white bug deflector (REASON: covers up a nasty scratch on the hood) haha

Delta17- light bar is from OffRoadInnovations.com idk if their site is functional anymore though

4wd150- TYC diamond heads from slickcar.com

Pheonixx- the hood is from APMautomotive.com

4.2trimble- my white light covers got stolen
i think we have the same ideas for our tails. im gonna paint mine white also. how are you gonna do yours? PM me

dirtyd88- It is non-functional. as for how much it set me back... i was lucky enough to have bought the truck used after the hood was installed about a month before. LUCKY!
