One thing that I like to do is to make the two tone paint line-x or ryno-lined. Helps protect the lower from rock and road garbage. Another is to let it breath with a nice intake. Have fun. Looks great.

Honestly, I'd get a new grill, headlamps and add fogs.

Remove that gawd-awful trim!

Paint the door handles.

Chrome wheels. (8 or 6 hole OEM take-offs or somethin' else OEM because they can be had cheap and you don't have to get new tires)

I like the Rhino lining idea.

New y-pipe.

PI heads.

Custom tune from 5-star tuning.

08/09 Tow mirrors.

Tint the windows.

Give it a good detail & wax.

That's a nice truck.

i just got it, it has 70,xxx miles on it, i paid 6500$ for it, so i think i got a good deal, the headers are leaking abit, i think there is a new kit to fix that problem. Im gonna take out the plastic bed liner and get it sprayed, im gonna get a K&N intake for it "not just the filter" I was also thinking 2" lift with 315/75/16's, Also a new bed cover. I have Steerglow bulbs in it now..

Yeah, I remember now... I saw you picture at the US Post Office for buying that truck at a "steal!"

I would do the following for enhanced reliability:

1. Inspect the entire vehicle looking for any leaks, damaged components, etc.
2. Replace all the fluids (transmission, axles, cooling, etc)
3. Do a complete tune-up (plugs, wires, maybe even COP's)
4. Replace fuel filter, pvc valve, and any other component that has a tendency to clog
5. Replace serpentine belt and any pulleys that are showing signs of wear
5. Replace battery (w/ Optima) if it is near the end of its useful life
6. Do a front-end alignment

My 2005 F350 only has 28K miles but I plan to do all of the above in May just so that I can set a baseline for future maintenance. The sky is the limit on performance and cosmetic enhancements. That's really up to you.

4. Replace fuel filter, pvc valve, and any other component that has a tendency to clog Very Very Soon
5. Replace serpentine belt and any pulleys that are showing signs of wear Done*

Very nice shape, that has a lot of potential. I would agree with the Headlamp upgrade as a good start.

Ha! We must be like-minded... that's kind of scary!
