Here are a few teaser picks of my 2004 Excursion with 2010 front end conversion, 2010 power fold and telescope mirrors and Road armor bumper. Still got a lot to do, but coming along.
Before with 2005 grill 
After.

Was much modification needed? My '05 F-150 would look pretty cool with a new front end.  |

Yeah, not a bolt on for sure. Lots of fabricating brackets and tweaking sheet metal.. The 08-2010 front frames are 7" lower, the header panel is different, wiper cowl, inner fender structure, custom made headlight buckets, even the hood hinge had to be modified. I have about 40 hours into it, but thats nights and weekends. Your welder and plasma cutter will be your friend. Worth it, probably not, but I like to build stuff and its not something you see everyday that is for sure.
Now on a F150 I understand the update is pretty easy, more of a bolt on, but don't quote me on that. Did you see the guy doing a raptor conversion on his F150? Pretty sweet, bedsides, front clip and he is doing the suspension too. |

And from the looks of it, it's been in both a front and rear collision. |

I can't get enough of blipping the throttle with the windows down to listen to those twin turbos sing. It pulls like my Cummins too. While mine is paid off and I really don't want another payment I'll be sad when I have to drop this one off and have been thinking of shopping the local dealers for a used one. It's an awesome truck. |
