Shadow Black

[HDA]

I’m going to start documenting the progression of my Ranger on here.

Specs;
2021 Ford Ranger XLT Sport 4x4
Non-FX4
In Shadow Black ?

I have a vision in my head of what the final version will look like, it’s just a matter of saving up and installing the parts to make this happen.

This build will be mostly for aesthetics. I don’t go off road, but the 4x4 is handy in snowy conditions and a must-have in Oregon imo.

First Changes I made were the tire valve caps, chose blue to match the ford logo and interior dash accent lighting.

And installed the damper because all the cool kids were doing it.

You should also start a count of how many times it needs to be washed to not look like crap

Next thing I installed were vinyl stickers for the rear and front logos/ model name.

And the two costly mods I’ve done so far; the retractable bed cover, this thing is pretty nice the water is poured out through two tubes. So it doesn’t get stuck in the roll or whatever. Manually retractable, helped keep things dry and secure. Much needed since I’m a travel X-ray tech.

And I also had the bed lined with Bullet brand liner.

Your Ranger looks great!! I love black vehicles but they're tough to keep clean which I'm sure you're aware of. Next you'll have to try the Graphene on it, it'll really make the black shine. ?

Welcome to the club!! If you already got one here's another for a spare. ?

Some personal touches. A northwest sticker I got when I went up to Cannon Beach, OR in December.
Vinyl letters for the glove box.
Some patriotic touches, because I love my country.
And I placed some protective door sill covers all around, the driver side, especially, was getting pretty bad.

Added an exhaust tip, I’ve been asked twice if it was a diesel. Which my response has been, “I wish.” Both times. ?
And some raptor lights. Easy install. Not sure if they will stay though. We will see.

I installed a shorter antenna, the stock one made it look like an RC toy car.

Front tint to match the rear.

Dual sided dashcam.

K&N air filter.

And some RGB interior lighting, blue to match the dash lights.. and valve caps?

Lastly, the fog light were changed out to these amber LED ones.

I initially installed led lights all around but I like the stock halogen look better. As of now only the third break lights and the rear license plate lights are LED.

Truck looks great in black. Black vehicles though are a part time job.

Added a steering wheel cover. As my girlfriend put it, it makes the steering wheel look “Thicc with a double c”. Very comfortable for sure.

I also added a light to the sun visor, that way she can doll herself up or whatever.

and I added these Ford Racing seatbelt covers as well.
