I put dirving lights behind my grille.

You could install a light bar across the front.

Someone has a Roush hood scoop for sale on the classified's that is already painted OXford white.

Nice truck....same as mine

Have you done any LED conversions? Lic. plate lights, tails, 3rd brk light, etc? How about the Recon bed lights (LED kit for inside the bed [/url] )? Maybe an interior light upgrade to LEDS including your vanity mirrors. Try www.superbrightleds.com or maybe www.putco.com

If you're looking to increase appearance and function, you could add a light bar to the front, and mount a couple 6" lights on it. We have many lighting accessories up on our site for your F-150, let me know if you have any questions

If you want to do something like this, save some of your money and do an HID conversion. It will look a lot better and put out brighter, whiter light. Do a search for HIDs and you'll find thousands of threads on the subject. Don't waste your time with those Putcrap lights. They'll just burn up your wiring harness.

Johnnyd was referring to replacing your turn signals, tail lights and other little bulbs with LEDs. You can replace the bulb with lights from superbrightleds.com or replace the entire brake light like this http://www.autoanything.com/lights/h...aillights.aspx

As far as actual headlights go, you can't do an LED conversion. You can go with a halogen bulb (stock) a colors halogen bulb (the putco one you found) or and HID conversion.

I did both. LEDs in all the little bulbs (turn signals, brake lights, etc) and HID's up front.

Correct^. I should have clarified for you what exactly all I was referring to. I have not done a HID conversion yet so I can not give any advice on those. However, if you can't afford the HID kit then a cheaper option would be the Sylvania Silverstars. I have them in my heads and fogs and they are much brighter and whiter than the stockers.
