Hopefully you get them sooner than my last Ali order. New carbon bike rim took 2 months. They do have the potential to look pretty good.
Hope so, not too worried about it though. My Raptor grille came from there and took about a month but for $100 I didn’t mind waiting to save some cash!

Hey GOT SVT! Looks fantastic. How did you make the LED accents inside of the headlight housing?
Thanks Lev and what Az said about it being a Lariat.

it was one of the reasons i went white with the grille lights instead of the amber lights

Installed the SwingCase storage box on the driver's side. I have a Pendaliner for the bed so there was some cutting involved. Have to say, as nice as the liner is to have, the access holes for the tie downs do leave a lot to be desired. I don't have huge hands but the holes/covers are a little snug, especially for the furthest left rear tiedown. Cutting those areas away for the mount bar was easier than I thought. Sharp blade, slow steady hand and some patience. I'm far from a technician/expert unlike others on here, but I was very happy once it was installed/finished. Have to trim just a bit more where the top of the box recesses next to the bed on the driver's side, but it's negligible.

Pneumatic tailgate damper arrives today, will install that tonight. Wish I could get SYNC 3.4 to update, but taking it in this weekend for an oil change (free/included in the purchase of the truck) so I will ask the dealer to do it. FordPass isn't connecting to the truck either - seriously wondering if it's tied to my changing phones (Android to Apple). Never had that issue with my old Galaxy.

Ordered the Terrain Management shift knob thing through my local dealership today. It should be here Thursday and look like the pic. Now that I have the upgraded dash cluster, I can use FORScan and activate Terrain Management and bam, I can selected Terrain modes.

Went fishing and caught a few. It's been a good fishing truck so far. Did pretty well. My size 14 next to the 36' black drum caught on my surf rod for scale. Awesome fight on a light tackle trout rod in the surf.

Did a good deed and pulled out a stuck minivan, TWICE today. I told this young man to stay on the hard pack near the water. I pull him out and he proceeds to drive about 20 feet and make a hard left into the soft sand instead of a right to the water line. You just cannot fix stupid. I told him the third time is going to cost him because he is interrupting my fishing. He did not get stuck a third time.

Thx. Wading the bay, Galveston side at SLP. The black drum and other specs were from the surf at Surfside.

Looks good. I like to look in the back ground of pics of garages and see what cool stuff folks have. I like your Ford tool box. Looks nice.
Gave the truck a good wash followed up with some Autoglym Magma. Going to start the clay bar process tomorrow morning before work!

Ahh, I love wade fishing around SLP, but that current can get a dicey at times. Did Surfside have green water at the beach? Sorry, I guess I should PM you. Thanks ?

I watch the tide movement closely before hitting SLP. Those currents can get you. Surf was perfect. Flat and clear.

Got a tire patched... freaking nails.

Thankful i didn't have to buy a set of tires at 13K miles saving for the Toyo OPEN COUNTRY A/T III in 255/70/17s when the stocks wear down
