Looks like a stock gator bumper but with dual fogs. Looks ok but Iam not sure its much better then the stock one. The stock one looks very good by itself. Some billet grilles would be nice though.

i dont care what it looks like.
i want it because i want it.

i dont have a navigator for a family ride. i dont even have a family.
i am only 19 and want to make a show truck out of it.

i think it looks good with the dual fog lights. a lot better than the stock.
the stock does look good but everyone has the same one.
i love to be different.

Hey where can I get the conversion to make my 2wd Navigator 6lug?

It's obviously Photoshop'd, and a poor attempt at it.

You would have to get up, learn to do your own work,make one yourself, and not call something custom cus you can bolt it on.

what are you talking about.
i dont care about the wheels.

just about every wheel ad is photoshoped.

i am talking about the bumper.

you dont have a 2wd navigator

you have a f150 with the front clip, (i am not making fun of it either, i think it is bad@$$, you have a really nice truck)


that is a custom bumper. i dont think they make it. i was wondering if there was a place i could send my bumper to and have that done.

maybe i should have been more clear with the post.

also PYRO.... i checked with 2 chrome plating shops so far and neither one will chrome plate the plastic bars on the grill.
i guess ill just have to get a billet grill.

actually i found a place here
it is actually real thick though
they use it to dip chains in for kid swings and such
they said they think they can get a coat that looks like chrome because the manufacturer has a silver series swing that is all shiney

im sorry if i am taking any of your post the wrong way tonight. i have just been made pissed off by some guy saying that the truck i worked my @$$ of to buy is my dads and i am basically a loser for telling everyone its mine.

if you get any more info on this let me know.
i would love to do this to my grill.

also how much did your ghost flames cost.
my friend damon 99blklitng is wanting to repaint his truck balck and add the flames.

thanks.

grille wise its way to thick
have u ever seen plastic coated safety chains? its like that

thinking aobut it some guy in the appearance area found a place that coats stuff in a fake carbon fiber
im guessing like shrink wrap stuff with carbon fiber design

I have seen chrome shrink wrap at Hobby Lobby before, that might be worth looking for and trying out on some scrap plastic- dont know how long it would last though, weather wise

well i was talking to damon today during our philosophy class and thats when he mentioned the flames. i then thought about painting it in PPG chrome allusion. not sure what PPG calls there color change paint but it looks good.
i would feel comfortable painting it myself too with it just being the grill. im sure the paint would hold with a black base coat.

Why don't you do what I would do? Contact the magazine and ask them. Might take a few phone calls, but you should be able to find the information you're looking for.

Just don't call and sound like a demanding spoiled brat. That will get you nowhere real fast.

already emailed and called the wheel company that placed the ad. they had no idea what i was talking about. i even mialed them the photo and they said that it was not their ad.

i went to the site that the ad displayed.

well i guess people just dont want to help these days.

Get in touch with the magazine and ask what ad company placed the ad, then call the ad company and talk to the ad exec and get the information you need. The exec might put you in touch with the photographer.

Like I said, you might have to make a few phone calls. I should make a point about this. PHONE. Don't email.
