just the grill and a hood. Since mine is a 98 the newer style glass hood allows me to run the raptor grill in it.

This response leaves me wondering what you smoke? you are comparing a raptor to a raptor killer. whats wrong with you!!? lol but seriosly an actual raptor would be awsome but I dont have the cake for one, so my mini 5.0 raptor look-a-like will have to do for now.

its a ranger! stop trying to be a Raptor wannabe!!!
its like a white boy tryin to act black. just no...
/facepalm
and I forgot this is a 1 piece raptor conversion not just a grill and hood combo. I think it could have looked a little more proportional had they used smaller style headlight JMO thou.

if done properly, and proportioned, and not copying the raptor grille, it could look awesome. but sorry trying to copy the raptor exactly is just dumb imo.

maybe thats just cause i hang out on a raptor forum and am a huge raptor fan lol.

and a 5.0 ranger long travel is no where near beating a raptor.
the raptor has so many electronic goodies and **** it comes with it gives it a leg up on everything. even a f150 raptorized will not beat a raptor.
and modded ranger vs stock raptor? doesnt seem right imo. if you get to spend money on a ranger, spend money on a raptor to and do the same mods. raptor wins.


not denying a LT ranger is badass and i do plan on doing mine, but it wont compare to a raptor :)

buying a raptor means you dont have money to spend like you have when you buy a ranger though...

lol what?
buying a raptor means you have a ton of money to spend lmao.
LT 4x4 rangers gives you what, 14" of travel?
a raptor has 13" of travel.
but if you LT the raptor you end up with 18" of travel.

you cannot compare the 2 trucks. its just retarded. saying a ranger is better obviously you have no idea what the raptor has to offer in its entirety.

When you buy a raptor you have spent more than if you buy a ranger.... It's not hard to understand what I said.

Let's say I have 40 grand. I buy a real nice ranger, I have 30 left. I buy a raptor I have maybe 10 left.

Buying a raptor doesn't mean you have tons of money to spend, lots of people buy cars they can't afford...

Drop it already. Who cares that one person doesn't like a ranger with raptor decals. You made your point multiple times.

I don't like rain but it still happens and I don't lose sleep over it.

you buy a ranger for 10, and you spend 30 to make it into what a raptor would be. or you buy a raptor, and spend 10 to make it awesomer.

i disagree. That looks sick! Nice looking truck BCSuperTrucks. Did you have it scaled down in size or just by the full size one and cut it?
