Here are a couple of pictures of my truck as it started and after the lift.

I will try to add more as I find them.

In the beginning:



After the SuperLift with my favorite wheels:



I have been thinking lately of going back to the Slotted Wheels, i think it is a better look.

X2, The cab visors look good on the Rangers. I should know.


I have one of the earlier, square off Visors, sanding it as we speak and need to get it painted E4, so it shouldn't take too long  to get on the truck and the SoCal sun makes it a must have IMHO !

Maybe go black on the slotted this time around . They Aluminum so stripper will just take it right back off if you don't like it. But it's worth the look see . I'm trying to find my wheel style in  aluminum to get away from the Steelies base chrome dipped set I have now . Weight is rotating mass and if I can Shave a pound our so off  atleast the back wheels I can get that snapper rpm  response on the track (drift)
Thinking on these !



Opinions ?

There is silver version, this one but I am thinking black !



The more I look at the silver one the more I like it... !

Still thinking I guess !

I decided to add the Grille Pictures to this thread.

Duplication of effort but it is part os the process.

I start with a picture of the Old vs New Grille and Lettering

Ols Grille, Red Bronco Lettering, it worked at the time but I always wanted the lettering larger.



New Grille, larger lettering but they still need to be spaced further apart.  Not too much but an increase in spacing, just want the sides filled a little more !
If anyone noticed this picture shows the front bumper in its new Powder Coated Black Coating, a little shinier than the Paint used originally when I got the bumper !



Got the lettering spaced out where I thought I wanted them; things change !  I'm thinking moving the center two letters out so the inside edge of each of the letters matches the support bar instead of the outside edge.  No too big of a move but it will increase the overall spacing and fill things up a little more !



Here are the Letters mounted.



Here is the mounting panel to lock things in place.
I marked it for the LEFT of the vehicle, just in case I dropped it and lost my way !
This plate will need to be increase in length approximately three more inches and the lettering moved outward.



Here are the basic parts, New Grille, Mounting/Spacer Plate, Letters with owner installed studs, and Hardware on the side... !



Simple straight forward, when I remove the headlights for the Projector Retrofit Install, I need to re-space the lettering to the wider spacing, clean up the lower part of the grille shell some and installed the new LED Fog Lights.  May even thing on the new winch install.

The new Fog Lights are not projector and will probably NOT throw the light I want so I may need replace them at a later date, may have some cheap Fog Lights for sale soon.
Here are a few picture of the Fog Lights and yes I know they are not projectors but I am interested in filling in front of the vehicle not the road ahead, that's what I am Retrofitting the Projector for.
Nothing special, just some thirty dollar Fog Lights, hoping for them to light up the front of the truck, sort of fill in the gap from the front of the truck to the headlight beams, to me that is all the OEM Fog Lights did. These come with directional too, have to see where that goes.
Oh ya, 48 watts each, 6000K, again, not mounted yet but they are bright when hooked to a battery, but we will see how they light the road and IF they last once mounted.



This pic shows the Directional Strip built in, not sure how bright but should go well with the new directionals going in with the Projectors.



Dimensions:  
Diameter: 90mm wide = 3.54 inches
Depth: 60mm = 2.36 inches
The height measurement is screwed up, it includes the full length of the mounting bolt supplied with the light, only problem is the bolt is plain old steel, needs to be replaced with S/S.
You can see the diameter of the Fog Light Holes in the Front bumper pictures, they will mount on a Tab welded to the bumper just behind the hole, and the Mounting tab on the light can be reversed, this will allow for a mounted position further forward.
Also, the Diameter is perfect for the hole diameter, one of the reasons I purchased these.



Too many projects building up, Need to get away from the Barn and Yard Projects and get to the Ranger.
