My modded 2011 F250
I picked up a new 2011 F-250 last week and after having the truck for less then a day and a half and the mods have started.
First I spray tinted the side marker, tail and brake lights. I own a shop, so I used black mixed in the clear and added coats until I was happy with the effect. I don't like tails too dark, so these are right right to me.
I also removed and disassembled the fender emblems to color match the black texture area.
This is a very simple mod and really looks great.
I put the 325/60/20 Nittos on without leveling it and thought it looked good, but with the kit it looks great!:thumb:
It’s a Ready Lift Stage 3 kit, 2.5/3”
It rides great, just like it did yesterday without the kit!
Also installed Top Gun Customz duel steering stabilizer kit and can say for sure it makes the steering feel much better when hitting bumps.
Check it out:

Extras for fun

I'll even trade with you. I'll even keep the lift and wheels on. lol
Looks Good. Tint the windows and paint the tailgate handle also. The windows will make a huge difference. That is the original plan I had for mine, but couldn't resist going big.

Thanks guys.
Windows are getting tinted today if I'm not too busy.
Yes, the gate handle needs to be done and I'm trying to figure out what I want to do with the grille.
Painting needs to be done, just not sure exactly what I want painted.
Thanks
Jay

If you are going to paint the mirrors they look much better if you do the entire mirror not just the cap. Just don't do the slide arms of the will get scratched to heck when you slide the mirrors in and out.

That is how ford used to do it on the F150s... you could get an Fx4 XLT or Lariat Fx4. In 2004 (NBS) they made each trim and package it's own. They still do it the original way on the SD trucks. I prefer the SD way myself
