Oh I also forgot to mention that I took off the FX2 stickers awhile ago but haven't had a chance to take a picure. These damn dust storms have my truck looking like crap in a matter of a day at work. With the truck in the parking lot.

Oh it's all good man, plenty of people have told me to rip those things off lol. It looks a lot cleaner without them. I'll take pics ASAP.

They came off really easy, I have an industrial heat gun, just set it to the lowest setting, wave it over the sticker for about 20 seconds and off it goes.

The rest of the harley stuff came from the Ford dealer in town. I have a few friends there that helped me get that stuff since you have to own a harley to get the parts

How much were the rims? I am looking to get the 20in from 2000.
I know they sell replicas but you never know how long they will last.

also a front bumper with the fog lights

Here are my before and afters. I dont have many mods. I removed the step bars the first month I had my truck.
Before:






After:2/5 drop, OEM 20's, HD Grill w/painted surround, painted rear bumper, LED 3rd brake light, F150 badge removed from tailgate and holes filled in





I was rear ended this summer and I had them replace the rear bumper with a painted one. I havent got around to getting the front replaced so it looks kinda weird.

I would take the before picture to your insurance company and body shop, your supposed to get your truck back they way it was before that idiot rear-ended you. You gotta have chrome, it looks so much better that paint. Then again I really like shiny things though

I asked the body shop to replace the chrome with the painted bumper. I think white trucks look better with painted bumpers. If my truck was black, I would keep the chrome. The insurance company was pretty good to me. Only damage
I had was a dented tailgate and bumper. They replaced both with brand new ones and gave me $1,500 for my trouble. I also had the body shop fill the holes where the F-150 emblem was on the tailgate to give it a cleaner look.

toprat's got it looking good. It's one of the top trucks on the forum. I'm going with black Razors if I ever get my hands on some extra money.
