-Retro fitted LED BiXenon projector
-LED switchback strip
-Amber lens removed
-full internals painted black
-LED Halo

Hey Anthony,

Where are you gettin your headlights done (and where are those pics from)?

I've had my new projectors/ballasts/bulbs for like 6 months, but still tryin to workout my design details for other lighting within the casing (LEDs/DRLs/etc). I was thinking I would install it all myself, but now I'm not so sure... could be complicated.

p.s. i wish i never found this thread. you're beating me to the punch on just about everything I want to do to my Ex haha. good work.

I'm getting the lights done by chandler at "www.thelightingfirm.co"
Not a com.. It's "co"
Pics are of my mock up at his shop.
I got the info from fordman with the blackout fusion..
He is a good guy and uses top quality parts.
This site whole site and members are bad influences on me and my lack of self control. Haha
Hopefully pics today before they ship.

Damn...all fantastic stuff.

Looks like you beat me to my own headlight mod. Lol
That's what I get for trying to work it all out on my own. Haha

Should have lights mid next week and installed ASAP. With detailed pics.
I have new brake pads in the truck as well, so I'm still breaking them in and can't really step into truck yet. But so far ride is very nice. It is much softer ride, more comparable to stock feel at all air levels. Because we were the first to bag the truck there are NO aftermarket shocks/struts available with the system so we modified stock struts.(not fun) if Megan releases the coil overs, that will likely be a great improvement up front as it will give me even more travel and better feel.
So really hoping that happens now.  I have not noticed any negatives yet, but we will see as it gets tested. I think having the extra height in the snow and when traveling will be nice... So at this point I'm happy..
Thx

Billet badge put a bend in my 3.5L twin turbo so it would mount on the rear hatch properly..

Looks Damned GOOD  , BMC !

Just a thought .... have Billet Badges make an oval to replace the rear ford one that says " EcoBeast " .

Cool vids... Especially the second one and that extended glow from the turn signal... Thanks for posting ... The truck looks super! 
:thumb:
I found myself imaging it with LED turn signals.

I think the 285/35 is the max. I have no rubbing now, but it sure is close.

Hey Anthony,

When you were runnin springs (Flex or Ex?) w/ the 22x10.5" Vossens, did you ever tow anything?

I'm lookin to lower w/ the H&R Flex springs, and whether I change out for the 10.5" or add 1"-1.5" spacers to my 22x9" Vossens.... I'm concerned about rubbing with towing any kind of load.

Thanks brotha.
