So I took a few updated pics of the '94. The things I changed were-- tonneau cover/'07 tail lights and mirrors/explorer sport trac adrenaline rims/new headlights and signal lights/and painted a bunch of stuff black. I bought it 10 months ago, and this is what it looked like.





This is what it looks like now. Still need a few parts, and it desperately needs a complete color change.

 

nice! looks great man!

 

ditch the flares and the front plate and it will be even better, gen 3 ftw

edit : needs a shorty billet antenna too

 

^^ notice where he is from? haha

 

wow... really? i mean come on now thats like 15 of you noobs in the last 2 weeks...

 

I'm putting '02 Edge flares on it. and it's illegal to have no front plate where I live.

 

its illegal for me too but that didnt stop me haha

 

^^ u painting the flares black chris?

 

Every things going HOK Candy Apple Red. Also installing a flush mount LED third brake light, 4X4 front valance with fog lights, welding in a roll pan, shaving all the emblems, tail gate handle, and tonneau cover lock(using an actuator to open it). That probably won't be happening until this winter though, I'm just too busy at the shop to work on my own ****. haha

 

nice, looks good so far.

 

a 4x4 valance is sweet on our generation, im getting ready to install mine and some lights for it, how come yours doesnt have it, i thought the only ones that got flares were the 4x4?


and btw, good luck finding those fog light brackets, you might be better off fabing your own because theyre a rare thing, i searched for a couple months before i came across some a member had currently taken off his truck

 

haha nice! so ur whole truck is gonna be hok candy apple red?

 

Honestly, I have no idea why it doesn't have the 4X4 valance, maybe somewhere along the way it got ripped off and the previous owner just threw a regular one on. I'm not too worried about it, at my cost it will only be $15-$20. As for the flares, my truck is a 4X4.
I will more then likely fab up some brackets, much easier then trying to hunt down factory ones.

Yup.

 

fabbing some up would be cheaper and lighter on your truck, as the OEM ones are CAST IRON lol, are you gonna paint the valance to match the bumper pad and impact strip on the front?

 

Yup, everything will be color matched. I'm also going to smooth them out a bit so they aren't textured.

 

why the rollpan on a 4x4? to each his own but dont you want to be able to tow things if need be lol

 

It wont be a problem towing things with a roll pan. haha

 

tell that to laz... who thought about it then realised the work wasnt worth it to make it work lol

 

sweet can't wait to see it when its all done!

 

haha, I own a body shop, so it's not that big of a deal. Might have to notch it here and there, but it can be done and it can look great also.

 

cool so can i drive up there and have you shave my doors and tailgate and smooth the pan laz is sending me for free? haha

 

^^ he has the tools and hook ups haha i do not lol nor the moneys

 

Looks good

 

Sure, if you want to drive 35 hours to get here, I will do it for ya. It would probably be cheaper for you to have it done near you though. haha

 

i gotta go up there to get my pan from laz anyway....


just kidding.. im not about to drive 2500 miles each way lol
