    Upgrading Sound System Again

    I recorded a short clip of the noise I’m hearing. It seems like it’s only coming from the rear door speakers. The video actually makes it seem Louder than it is. It’s like a hissing or air blowing noise. It’s really annoying. https://1drv.ms/v/s!Aso4mz7YpyaiihPdMf61HlBhSqe2

    Paint matched bumpers, grill, tailgate etc

    Thanks, it looks a lot better. I don’t under stand why painted fenders arnt a standard option to begin with, it’s such a drastic change to the look.

    Paint matched bumpers, grill, tailgate etc

    So as if I didn’t spend enough money buying a new raptor I had a bunch of the trim painted black to match the truck. I had the fenders, front and rear bumper, tailgate, wheels, side vents, skid plate. I also had the calipers painted blue along with the drum inside the wheel. Check it out.

    Yeah I did mine without a lift also its not that hard. Drop the spare tire before you start it will give you more room to play. Now I just got done installing my Stainless Works headers without a lift.... now that was a workout..
