Any plans for your old 2005 white grille? I'd be interested in it...

Ughh! cutting up a clean X?!!!!!! I get it though. at least you`re making the rear wheel wells match the front fenders. are you going with different tail lamps too?

Sorry, already sold complete front end. I looked for some different tailight ideas but didn't really find anything I liked. Saw one with Raptor tails but they looked too small. I'll get some more pics from shop today I'll post them as he sends them.

No mods to 6.0 or suspension, those will be next. Not quite sure what I'm going to do.
I picked up 2010 axles and parts needed for swap but haven't decided to use them or not.
Any thoughts? Wanted a small lift but lift and new fenders might force me to go with 37s to look right. Not sure

The newer coil spring front end rides a bit nicer than the leaf setup. If your leafs are factory, the are likely slapping the bump stops anyway as Ford put rather soft springs in these. If you have the means, upgrading the suspension is a great payoff.
