Talking ahh..finally!!

As some of you know, I periodically make posts about which things are better, and where to find this, how do I fix that...haha. Well, Finally I can put all my plans into action. I'm giving up my baby to a family friend tuesday who happens to own an excellent garage for quite a bit of various reapairs ( brakes, rear main seal, various sensors, litte things here and there) all for a cool friend price . So, after I get her back and she's running like new, THE MODDING WILL BEGIN!!!! Gahh I'm so excited!!!

Yes, I enjoy the satisfaction of working on my truck, but I don't have the time/experience/tools for most of what it needs .

Anyways, after everything is through, my plans are, 2" Drop Shackles, Paint Matched grille and headlight surround, and a full shave of the moldings and trim, along with 04-08 F150 XLT badges.

Yes, the time has come...crazy what having two jobs can do for you!!

I'm not sure I had found it a while back and had it saved. I believe it's the sonic blue color from the gen 2 lightning. Oh and btw I love your truck. Lol my truck will be a lightning clone as well
