How well do you know 04-08 F-150's

Ive made a few subtle changes to my truck. So far nobody in the general public has noticed, or at least if they have they haven't said anything. I figured I would post some pics and see if any of you all could pick up on whats different.

Y'all figured out one of them. That one was pretty easy especially to you all because my signature pic has the other grille in it. I did not realize this till after I posted. Lol

Well looks like the other subtle change even slipped by you guys. Look Closer at the wheels.

I had one wheel that looked like the PO got stuck in some gravel and chipped up the clear coat on it pretty bad. My solution was to use aircraft stripper and strip the clear coat off. Of course this process also removed the paint from the inset portions. The bare aluminum wheels are quite a bit more shiny than with the clear on them. I repainted the inset portions with Rustolium silver metallic. I learned about this on a ford ranger forum i belonged to years ago.

Sorry for the crappy cell phone pics, and also in the close up pic there were some bits of clear I hadn't removed yet.
