Did this on a sudden urge.

Here it is all chromed up

Here it is with all the paint on. It look hand painted still so I'm gonna try to mess around with it tomorrow to get it looking better. I think I might ape off the blue oval and the 4.6L part and paint the plastic black part a Flat Black. Might make it look betta.

No pics of it on the engine yet. I might paint some other things though.



I also acetoned my badges this weekend so I'll have pics of them up too.



What color should I go with in my engine compartment? Red? Blue? Yellow? Green? I plan on painting other stuff under there like the radiator cowel and the cover for the battery.
 
THAT looks GREAT!





I wouldnt do to much under the hood, sometimes a little is better that alot:nono But if you do "a little more" stick with the color of the truck.





Once again you did great:xyxthumbs



Red
 
Thanks redcarguy.



I may see about having the hood pulled off and the underside repainted. I might do that myself. Ford didn't excatly paint the whole thing...
 
also might look in to a cold air intake kit, Sumthing like this, it would dress it up a little and get a few HP too!

I know that is not the one for yor truck, just a pic to get the idea;) Do a search on the k&n site to find a pic
 
redcar Guy, yhea I have a plan for performance mods but I'm gonna start getting them now and drop them all on the truck at once.



I'm going to go with the Air Force One Cold air filter. It has a chrome tube. Let me try to find a pic of one.



I plan to do a new read diff. I got a 3.08 now and want to do a 3.73. Going to put a superchip in it at the same time.



I'll probably also do some pulleys for the accessories. I have to talk to some people to see how much they help F-150s out though. Mine isn't blown. I already know the throttle body spacer doesn't work for F-150s.



Reminds me of one Lightning owners signature "My baby like the bottle but prefers to be blown" :D
