2002 Ford Explorer
Well I am new here and just joined the Explorer world. I bought a 2002 Eddie Bauer with 89000 on the clock and the 4.0 in it. thing runs like a top and have no complaints. Will it stay stock? Of course not!

I want it to be a bit of a "street king" if you will. I am not going to do anything to crazy or anything just some basic aesthetic things.

Plans:
Billet grills(upper and lower, and fog light grill inserts)
HID lights(high, low and fog)
blacked out tail lights and headlights and corners(also will cut daytime corners)
all other lights will switch to LED
wheels and tires(has 265/75R16)
drilled and slotted severe duty brake kit
MAJOR Audio upgrade
matte black paint job(blue and tan now, bleh)
air ride suspension
maybe a programmer

Things done:
updated ford wheel and bigger tires
BWM Mod

So not too crazy but still cool I think. I haven't looked yet but are there any write-ups or air ride kits out there? I work in a shop so doing a custom job wouldn't be a problem but kits are nice sometimes!

Any tips would be great.
