Got my overlays today! (Pics!)

Came in the mail today! Bad news is they sent me the 04+ tailgate one so I have to get in contact with them. But I put on the front grille one immediately. Also note the sun strip decal I got over the weekend. Both were a breeze to install. Also got my registration sticker for 09 on my plate, but I doubt anyone want to see that.

Pics:









I think it is the perfect compliment to my white/chrome combo going on towards the front end. Next up is white inlays for my F-150 badges and PTM my bumper white.

I noticed that since I drive with my Hella's lit (serving as DRL's) they seem to draw attention to the badge because it's between the two.

Yeah, its hard for a teenager to save $300 on min wage. I live from paycheck to paycheck and gas gauge rarely sees full B-day is next month so I'm hoping dad might chip in

UHF is a portable one we use in the airplane as a backup. I didn't buy it. Overlay was like $15, come on....cut me some slack. Hella's I got like 3 years ago!


mSall.... its not dirty, the first 5 years of its life saw frequent impacts with Fla's love bugs and dad neglected to wash them off when he owned it. The guts reacted with the grey paint and now are causing little rust holes. Nothing I can do until I manange to get enough dough to have it primed/PTM/and CC'ed hopefully in a month or so. Stick with me, guys.

Raptor have you looked a a scrap yard for your bumper? I know you want it white but maybe you could find a chrome one for cheap

or just rattle can it for now!! It would look good in pics

Just a thought ..If raptor had a nickle for everytime someone said pant that bumper it would be done by now
