Good looking truck either way man. Love those grilles. I just get tired of buying all the little crap that doesn't do a whole lot and just go after the big fish

Ya i hear ya! I wanna do the turbo bad. I almost did a turbo over the wheels and tires. But the wheels really make a huge difference. Now its looks pretty good, but the stock exhaust sounds gay, so i'm thinking a 5" exhaust with 4" downpipe is in order with a cold air intake and no limits cold side kit then stud the heads, do push rods, valve springs, rocker arms, stage 2 ported intake manifold, hd up pipes, and i think thats it, i wanna do pistons too, not when they will fit in the equation, ideally before one cracks i guess, so probably when the heads are getting studded.

Right. That's all on my list of things to do lol. I use mine with my company and if coarse I'm dot regulated so I gave to keep mine somewhat quiet and look somewhat stock. Luckily for me most of these guys don't know what the truck us supposed to looked like lol

Clean looking build! Love the rigid fog lights. I've been wanting some for my '08 ever since they made the 6.7 kits.

Ya i thought about lettering up my truck and i don't wanna screw it up with any lettering. I have a 97 f350 7.3 that is lettered up. I'm contemplating getting a 6.4 for strictly work and just do dpf/delete and small tune maybe an intake

Do the magnetic signs. That is what I use when hot shotting. I have never lost one except once at an automatic car wash. I got it back and still use it today.

Did you paint over the Chrome on the mirror caps or did you get some that came ready to paint? If you painted over the Chrome can you tell me your process? I want to paint mine as well as my grille

fender badges done finally!

now I just need to powdercoat the bumpers and tow hooks to match and get a grille to paint to match. then the exterior is done, still have some suspension work to do, and brakes, brake lines, then motor and transmission and its done, could be done completely finished before the 1 year mark, but I found a foreclosure i'm gonna try and buy, so I'm thinking i might go light with the truck mods and save the transmission and digging into the motor and dual fuelers until next year.
