Anyway, here's my rendition of it:



...Come on Ford, build it and they will come!
I know I'm late seeing this, but that's beautiful!
Makes the tail lights look a lot more natural for some reason...

Thanks mate!
If they made it (and I had the money) I'd buy one.

Russ I think the line x looks horrible. I mean no offense to anyone whos got it. But I have seen a few of the line x's get a horrid whitewash to them and they just look bad.

Get it all painted by a pro man!

If you change the color of the rockers other than lining them you will have to have the whole truck re-cleared which is expensive, hence the reason jesserohr line-x'ed his f250 rather than painting it.

Might have to squint for this one. I'm not that good with black...

Black bumpers


Black bumper/body, silver FF


Everything black


The second pic is more of a saving point since the FF and the body were done separate, but I thought it looked kinnda cool, so decided to post it up. That goodness you took this in an empty parking lot, since most of this was done by cloning (you can tell from the rear panel.) Wasn't sure how to do the FF so kinnda just guessed. Hope it works.

Powers, yeah they all look good, but I really like a two-tone. Like on your truck, I love the two-tone and wouldn't go all black.

StrikeSwiftly, yeah I would prefer paint, just wasn't sure what the popular choice was.

Jake, so if they paint the rockers, they have to reclear the whole thing, they can't just clear that section?

Now there's an idea. I like the idea of doing PTM on your chrome bumpers but go with the silver. That could look pretty sweet.

yea if they dont sand it smooth and re clear it youll have a difference in thickness you can feel and possibly see even. only way to even it out is to re clear the whole thing so they can sand it even

I know this may sound a bit ghetto, but I think it might even be what the factory did. I currently have an OEM pinstripe that goes over the transition from grey to red. Its real thin and I thought about removing it until I looked at the grey behind it and realized that it didn't line up at all spots. In other words at the doorjams it doesn't line up. So it seems like they used the pinstripe to mask that. Would that be an option? Just airing out ideas here.

understand what your saying but if you do a solid color would you really want a pinstripe?? and if you do black might as well line it impo

Yeah I gotcha. If it was all one color, pinstripe wouldn't look good. I'm leaning toward the black on bottom if I do this. So you say Line-X that?

And I'm with you, I like that combo for Powers truck.

Could you photoshop these wheels onto my truck? Thinking of getting new wheels, but just a thought for now.
