many people believe that if they lift the front end higher than the back it looks better

It's funny when people are wrong.

Hey man :wave: I'm still around and kicking!

I need updated pics, I have the same running boards on but in black now.

Could be, never thought of that, I guess a $45,000 debt is better than what a surgical face makeover would be, and a little Micro Soft paint work does wonders :lol:

idk If I put myself in that debt I would get as many pics as I'd want with my new '09 because paying for that you could be able to do w/e the eff you want lol.

I forgot he made those dumb comments......I agree though for now its just another lifted truck :coffee:




Well on a side note here's mine, I need to get some harley heads soon.

Damn !
 

Their sure are a LOT of awesome looking trucks in this thread ! I've always felt 'black' was one of the best looking colors for a truck..... it's just SUCH a PITA to keep clean ! My Stone Green is a PITA as it is, and I know it's still not as bad as black.

The other thing you guys always freaking kill me with is your fat lifts, and 35" and 37" tires ! That looks so bad-ass...... but even if I could afford $8 or $10k to do that right, I could not afford to drive my truck, pulling my boat 4000 miles a month (during peak months). Gas kills me as it is ! And that's at only $2.15 a gallon. If it goes back to $4, I'm screwed.

Take care of those beauties :-)

Oh, and I don't think I posted my latest Ford Oval pic yet....

The color match is spot on in different lighting conditions..... Like in the full side photo of my truck and boat.

i was starting to wonder when you were going to post in this thread! i remember when your truck was only a vision, we had a million threads on what mod's you were going to do when you got the truck... and then you finally picked it up at the dealership and went BLACK with it... looks great!:thumbsup:

Don't know if mine counts as blacked out yet. Still need to do the bumpers and tail lights. But here it is so far.

Not sure why all the white in the pics is turning pink. Maybe the camera or the picture taker.

here's a few new pics with the newly painted headlights and fogs

https://www.f150online.com/forums/me...ure25918-a.jpg

i just ordered some new stealth bulbs so i can replace the ugly turn signal bulbs that look bluish
https://www.f150online.com/forums/me...ights-fogs.jpg

i painted the tailgate emblem and added a new overlay without the DSG oval
and added an inlay to the '09 emblem
https://www.f150online.com/forums/me...lay-inlays.jpg

i messed up the OEM emblem a little bit when i was removing the old overlay, thats what that little void is on the left side
https://www.f150online.com/forums/me...t-dsg-ring.jpg

i also painted the fender shroud with my trusty can of Krylon Fusion

https://www.f150online.com/forums/me...ure25906-a.jpg

this is my '09 fender emblem prototype.. this is a mock up decal to see how the size fits.. the font will also be different on the final version and the F150 text will have DSG inlays.. SHhhhhh... this is top secret stuff here!
https://www.f150online.com/forums/me...-prototype.jpg

That's a great addition to your truck...:thumbsup:

What colors did you use on the actual Emblem and the decal , i want that look lol

also what kind of paint you used

Krylon fusion black satin on the tail gate emblem ?
then flat black background with DSG inlays for the overlay ?

yes sir,
satin black Krylon Fusion for the emblem
flat black backround with DSG text, i think it looks sweet without the DSG ring around the text

i got them made @ Patriot Decals

thanks , thats what i ve been wanting to do this for awhile , but i ve been afraid that the krylon wouldnt match patriot decals' flat black

it doesn't match but i like the contrast between the 2 colors

but, Krylon Fusion is now available in flat black.. not sure how good it looks though

Im trying!!
 

Heres mine hope it fits ( i just tinted windows and dont have pic [https://www.f150online.com/forums/me...w-wheels.html] ( i just tinted windows and dont have pic yet

Looks good, man.


https://www.f150online.com/forums/me...w-wheels.html]

i suppose it would be alright with everyone if i added mine to the pics. i havent taken off the tails and tinted them yet summertime project and havent got my new decals ordered in yet to put on.

Thought I would post here. Im workin on it :)

In fact I am working on it, or waiting on it right this second... I pulled the lower billet grill and its drying right now after painting it black. This weekend I will paint the upper grill. Still need the headlights, tails and something to do with the emblems.

i put them in the oven @ 250 for 10 mins. then pry the clear cover off. scuff up the chrome and paint it with Krylon fusion.. it way easier than the headlights

grill looks good!
when are you going to paint the headlights black?? that will make a HUGE difference!

Im working on that..... I have something "special" planned for the headlights.... And if all goes well I will do a full write up on how to do it.

So if you know anyone with a real cheap set that I can play with send them my way.

Great looking trucks guys, i cant wait to get an f-150 and black it out. yall have given me alot of inspiration haha

I am getting there... I need to paint the suspension lift bracket and tint the windows.
https://www.f150online.com/forums/me...26591-back.jpg

So Blackout fx 4 ? you seriously baked them in oven for 10 minutes ? I have a 99 with fogs would that work on them too? ( i suppose there the same? ) Then you just glue em back on or caulk or what ? Thanks alot

BlackoutFX4,

What paint did you use on your running boards and what is hard to apply? I have the bright factory running boards and I want to paint them black, if possible.

EDIT: I found your thread on the running boards, but I am still wondering about the fender flairs. Thanks...

Also, did you paint the factory fender flairs while they were on the truck or did you take them off? How hard was it to prepare the surface for painting? They look very smooth in the picture.

I love it, dude! Paint those headlights and you're done.

looks great 06'Ford :thumbsup:

i love the look of the tail gate

Yeah I had a set of hellas about a year and a half ago and they got quite a bit of condensation in one, when I tried taking the lens off the headlight fell and the dang inside reflective plate broke, I was stupid and thru the set away, I'll have another set soon. Here's how it looked with them on.
