    The mod bug is already hitting me with my f150 now as well. It's definitely an obsession to get them the way you want them.

    If they would just get the idea already and start selling everything with more than 700 hp and ridiculous good looks for dirt cheap.

    Looks like some nice stuff. I really like the factory dual exhaust.

    Yeah, I never liked the chrome, but it was cheaper to get one with the chrome and switch it over. This is all I'm doing to it this year (except maybe some tint), maybe next year I'll get some nicer wheels for it.

    That looks a lot better for sure. I like the factory Duel exhaust. I want to find an fx4 grille for mine along with the black headlights and tailights. I think I'm keeping the chome bumpers though because the damn ford painted bumpers have an issue with rusting after they get chipped. Magnaflow makes a duel side exit exhaust that comes out in front of the rear passenger tire for the f150. I'm gonna try to sneak one of this on there without the wife seeing it in the spring I think lol.

    I've always liked how the fx4s looked. My chrome bumper was starting to rust some, hopefully the painted one holds up better. The ram has more rus underneath it than my fiero, its a shame that they use cheaper metals or something on them now.

    I think they cheap out on coating the undercarriage. I just sprayed the inside of my fenders, cab corners, and rockers with fluid film. Stuff is supposed to prevent rust really well. Hopefully it helps. Gotta get a few more cans. I also took off all those butyl patches they have covering the holes to access inside the rockers and cab corners and replaced them with window flashing tape I got at the hardware store. Trying to keep all that dirt/salt/water from getting in there and rotting it from the inside out.
