Exclamation What theme should I go with?

I have been trying to think of a centralized theme to my truck, it is a 1994 F-150 XL, 2wd, longbed, Black ext., maroon int., 5% tint all around w/ a strip thats about 8-9" in the front, has a custom ford logo (In my sig)....Just lookin for ideas...
  1. Patriotic(Sort of)
  2. Performance
As far as uses go, its a general truck...And in the future I am upgrading the handling/braking, etc...To be more performance oriented....To give some starting points there...

-Thanks all


-Wes

Yep, how can we help you decide what to do with it if all we have is a picture of the back window?....

Everyone has their own likes and dislikes. You should never allow public opinion to persuade you into a line of action that wasn't altogether your own idea.

Do what you want with your truck. It is your truck. =)

I think the low profile would be the best. I'm not saying to leave it 100% stock on the outside. Do a couple small upgrades where you would like them the best (window tint & exhaust for example), but leave the majority of the look the same Blow "them" away with it's peformance whether that be a street truck thats fast and nimble or a surprisingly trail-ready stock-looking truck.

I vote stealth

You sir, are not understanding the reason for this poll, I have good ideas, but I also like to see what others think, how they think stuff will look, and it just gives me ideas.......

And as far as pics go, I will post what I have in my album, the rest are on camera and my USB cord is MIA...

-Thanks all-

X2 on the camo. BDU style camo (like on military trucks) would be pretty bad ***. there is an old jacked up suburban in my hometown, he went full military: BDU camo and the skinny 36" tall military tires. it looked awesome

Now that is what I like to see!

I personally love the militarty style pre-runner look too.
