I would lose the gas cap and the 4x4 emblem on the side of the bed. For sure. Maybe more.

I'd get rid of everything except the door handles and v6 emblems on the fenders

Looks good though.....funny how Ford used the old 1996-2000ish Mazda B-Series wheels on the new Rangers.....buncha cheapskate's lol

I like all of it except the chrome door handles, the gas door and 4x4 and v6 emblems on the sides. The rest is OK. I think this goes along with the saying "Just because you can, doesn't mean you should". Buying cheap chrome stickers from autozone and calling it bling doesn't make it cool, it makes you mexican.

You would have been searching the Vehicular Sightings thread for awhile. It's from months ago lol.

Luckily I put that one on my photobucket instead of tinypic.

Ill be the first to say I like it lol. No one likes my opinion on here tho...
I do think instead of a $4 walmart 4x4 logo, you should get some custom graphics in chrome. Maybe even diamond plate :)

I just saved that picture to remind myself what NOT to do to a ranger, lol. That is a bundle of bad choices and wasted money. His mother should slap him.

Or, you could go to a ford dealership and get one of the new 4x4 logos that are on explorers/ sport tracs, etc. Those look cool.
