Very cool! Don't forget to talk to your insurance agent about the increased value due to the custom work.

I'd love to see a parts list and installation info. Seems the few guys who have done this are very tight-lipped about the parts/prices/process... etc.

I totally love it!! Funny thing that today on my way to work I seen another excursion(not sure on the year of it) however it had a newer front end on it like the one you have on yours. Its nice to see it matched up well without any major headaches. Yet alone another good reason why I Beleive Ford is the better automaker out there. Well that and the fact that they were the only ones who didnt take the government bail out, unlike the other 2.. LOL Then The GT 40 , and powerstroke motor.etc... It speaks volumes. Nice Truck DAX!

Would like to know the process involved also. If I'm ever in an accident and mine is totaled, I'm going to Tim's. I love the look, but would like the whole nine yards. Congrats, it's awesome looking. Did you have plans to add the rear taillights and bumper?

Very nice. I have the same color and would also like to do this. A few questions if you don't mind. I am guessing that you replaced both fenders,hood, grill, bumper and header panel. Anything else besides the mirrors ? Also are you going to do anything to try and match the front wheel opening to the rear ? At least paint to match maybe. The wheel opening looks much larger on the front. Also as others have asked I would love to know how much ? Did you use Ford parts or aftermarket ? Very nice truck. If you would rather not post the cost could you PM me.
Thanks Dave

The individual who started the thread and posted the pictures hasn't had any activity since March 2014. I suspect the pictures have been removed from whatever server he was sharing them from.
