I received my truck today. It's nice, although I'm pretty surprised at the orange peel in the paint (it's black). No big deal since I'm getting it all detailed and wrapped regardless.

Starting to hack it apart tomorrow. Pics will come as we make good progress, for now it's just a loaded black super crew with navigation and no graphics. When it's done it will be a totally different machine with the following mods;

- 20" Fuel Hostage w/Goodyear Duratrac
- ADD Front Stealth Bumper w/Winch & custom RAPTOR SVT cutout, lit up with RED LEDS.
- 40" LED bar for the front
- ADD Rear Stealth with 2 small LED lights
- Retrax Pro
- Bedrug
- Satin Wrap + custom Raptor Graphics
- That exhaust cutout thing
- Light the SVT maybe (seems like a pain got the parts though)
- Xbox Entertainment System (coming later - need to get the outside first)

Congadulations !

Regarding the paint : the orange peal does not bother me and thisnis the best black ride I have ever had . Zero swirls after a bit of abuse . This is saying allot. The black tx is remarkable.

Some guys hate it and I get it. But no fucking swirls , I never would have believed it.

20's ; are you staying on the black top ?

What orange peel? The paint protectant that's wrapped during delivery?

Anyways, congratulations!

Congrats! The tux black does have quite a bit of orange peel, but it looks great when polished/waxed and at least you know there's plenty of clearcoat! lol

I don't think I want to sell the factory wheels and tires.

More pictures in front of my driveway...
