97 5.0 ex build up

[97ford50x]

I bought my 97 5.0 ex in 2006. it had 66000 miles on it it is loaded c/d player sun roof and leather

the only thing that was a real problem was the paint!! it was cracking on the roof and hood. so after about 2 years.this is what it finaly started to look like

so i decided to make it an offroadable dd so i started with the tires pro comp 31=10.50 and a snorkel

I also made the clear side markers

then to takel the paint after doing so shopping i decided to do the bed liner look I was not sure at first but figured anything was batter then what it was so this is what I came up with so far

after having the bed liner on for a while now I love it no worries of stray shopping carts or others car doors
I also did warrior shackels aal superlift shocks tt and removed the front lower valance and tinted the tai lights I also added some round fog lights in the bumper so as of right now the only thing I realy need is a rear bumper.
