Question Planning upgrades?

Just curious what changes if any everyone is planning or have already done. As of this point I have tinted the front windows,removed the stock radio and cd played and added a fine alpine system w/6 disk cd plus one in the dash,EQ,Polk speaker replacements for the doors. Now as for future plans I plan on a Super Chip, K&N filter,Bed Rug (thats if we ever see the tonneau cover) possibly another 1 or 2 inch drop for the whole truck, and black lighting for the bed,undercarriage and interior. Speaking of Tonneau..plans call for it to be airbrushed with the Harley logo. I've been looking at the F-1 hoods.I'm just not sure if I want to make that change or not. Finally going to add a custom sub which my Kenwood 400watt amp is just waiting to power. That about sums it up...Anyone else??

Only have 600 miles on mine but am thinking of some mods after reading over this message board. K&N will be first then superchip maybe. Not sure extra gas mileage worth the cost of running 93 octane. Other than a Harley sticker in middle of back window I am not going to do much else. no tonneau cover as I am going to use the truck to haul my 98 FXDWG Harley to events so I pretty much like it as is.

I put the soft tonneau cover on with the Harley logo silkscreen. It looks pretty good. Two days later I get the letter saying Ford is giving us the hard shell at no cost and throwing in a wool jacket! Oh well. After driving my friend's Lightning I was spoiled...gotta put a Vortec supercharger on it now. No other plans except for a Superchip and speaker upgrades.
Any suggestions on keeping the paint looking good? I've got splotches all over the hood and top that waxing doesn't take out. Should I just hand it over to the pros at a detail shop?

I wax myself on a regular basis and every three months I let the pros take over and really put the shine on my machine. I just don't have that touch that my guy does.so thats what I would suggest too you.If your detailer is good I would think he could take care of your problems.
