Thoughts on the look of this front end?



i just did a quick p chopp to see how my lariat would look like this, the only thing else the truck would have on the front end is a light bar with 4 HIDs i just didnt have a picture of the truck with the light bar on it so this will have to do!

I'd put the lights behind the grill, and put a smoke tint on the driving lights.

If you want my opinion it's just another blacked out vehicle on the road... Every other car/truck I see now a days has some sort of blacked out theme... I prefer to go against the grain, but if you like being mainstream more power to ya

I'm not crazy about those grille inserts, but it does flow with the insert in the bumper.

I like it though I would have the headlights a little less dark.

Well here is my 2010 FX4 with that grill and Halo headlights .. I know you can see behind the grill but its just the picture and the way it was taken I was kneeling down when I took this.. You can see behind it when your standing. I get stoped all the time and told that its a bad *** looking Truck.. But you be the judge..

I like it, it looks good with the lower grille. My dodge cummins was blacken etc. I went the chrome route with F-150, both are/were black so I wanted a change.Still partial to the blacken look.

I looked at the billets for my current F-150, I would like to see one with slightly larger horizontal bars. Couldn't find any on the net.

ah that does look good, i wish i could find a grille similar to my 08 lariat




boo i miss her, but i feel like the front end im going for is going to look quite different then every other blacked out truck on the road. and fx4life im pretty sure you helped me with my rize truck at one time or another! ive built lifted trucks, and more cars then ive care to let my bank account show, i have yet to do a blacked out one, i need to update the photoshop to really render what its going to look like, i almost bought a rancho 4" but then decided i wanted something that actually functions then just looks good, i am going to be doing a prerunner buildup in another thread, i live in NY but have a love for the arizona desert far too much (have a house out there) i have yet to see a prerunner style truck drive on the streets on ny i am planning either a brenthel kit or the rize longtravel kit, already ordered my rear fox shocks damn they are pretty! going to be doing the same in a coil over for the front, and possibly the fiberworx fenders, i feel in love after seeing them in person out west. im trying to be different as far as the overall look of the truck is concerned.
