The FNG

Hey long time lerker and finaly decided to join the chaos. I have an 08 F150 SCrew Lariat 4X4 with the 5.4. Bought it with 32 miles on it (20 of that I put on test driving it). The only mods I have done so far is 2.5" leveling kit, Flow master SIDO exhaust out the corners, Bull bar, and KN CAI. Currently looking for wheels and tires. I am going for mostly blacked out with touches of chrome here and there for a lil pop.

I am 41 a Marine stationed in NC. Married 3 kids and more hobbies then money.

I will post pics up here in a few.

My plan is to do a black and chrome mix. Thats where I have been having issues on deciding on wheels. I am looking for black wheels with chrome/polished accents. I plan on blacking out the head lights, tail lights and the 3rd brake light. After all that I am really not sure. Only thing I know I am not going to do any time soon is lift it. I have a family of short people LOL.
