Re: New tag
Very cool plate and a good match for black paint.

Re: New tag
I prefer the clear turn signal lenses in your hood. Blends the front end nicely. Nice looking truck.

Re: New tag

Re: New tag
OMG, they are so subtle I didn't even notice them. Nice job! That looks so much nicer than the stock fender pimples. What I like most about your truck is that beautiful paint job - in the "correct" color!

Re: New tag
Its 5 coats Dupont "99 Black", w/clear. Bed interior was so bad, I just put bed liner in it and painted and cleared it as well! Came out better than I figured it would.

Re: New tag
Your bed looks professionally finished like all the rest of the truck. Bedliner covers up a lot of sins. That was a prime reason why I did my engine compartment in Raptor. That and I just like the way it looks. Is your tailgate a new replacement, or original with a lot of bodywork. It looks incredible under black paint. Not very often to see one so smooth.

Re: New tag
Thanks for all of the comments guys they are much appreciated! I have been lusting after everyone else's ride for 1 1/2 years and finally got to get to work on mine! Still a few things to do; lower 4" rear and 2" in the front, get the right tires (not sure what/which ones (size) yet), 2 1/2" exhaust, put the new motor in and install the new vent windows when they get here this week! But again I appreciate all the comments!

Re: New tag
What an amazing transformation. For many years I've wanted to put fenderwell headers in my truck. If I ever have the money I'm going with those cast headers instead. That engine is gorgeous!
