Hi, you might start by going to the top thread on this page, and see what other members have done with their 150's
I personal put on a Daystar 2/12" leveling kit, and I like the results,
The best improvement I made was gong to Michelin 285/75/17's smoothe as silk and a lot taller.

Well obvioulsy there are endless options and depends on your taste.

I went with a 2" level kit from AutoSpring and I think my truck may sit 1/2" high in front now. Still looks good, no complaints on that. Maybe the camper top sags it a little but I added air bags to the back with a wireless remote.

Out front is a chrome westin bull bar. very simple and looks good. I didnt want a large grill guard that went across whole truck.

For the exhaust I have an MBRP Cat-back with rear side exits. nice mellow rumble, sounds good.

I have an edge programmer with customs tunes and a K&N cai.

Right now I am in the process of making everthing on my truck red or black. I painted all of the chrome eblems black and added red decals for the F-150. This spring will probably be black rims of some sort.

Here are a few pics of my 05 in its current form.

Good luck onyour choices and post pics when done!!
