Hi guys,

I bought my 2008 XL in July and over the past couple weekends have completed several appearance mods.

First off, cloth interior with carpet (had vinyl seats and vinyl floor originally):

After-

Bumpers and grille:

During upgrade-

Mirrors:

Tires (30x9.5 General Grabber AT2)



----------

I have several other mods planned, such as fog lights and possibly power windows, locks, and etc. We'll see.

Looks good dude. Love the interior change. If that's a pin stripe, I would remove it.

some great imporovements. i like the way it looks. new set of rims and it would really rock

i did that the night i bought the truck. My F150 had a pin stripe too... those eraser wheels are fantastic.

I am planning to throw a set of Ultra Nomads on there once we get through the winter... Thanks for the comment!

Nice changes

What ranger did those seats come out of?

Ah same guy who made mine. Does some awesome work. I love mine

yep, i'll let the crappy steelies take the abuse of one more winter and then invest in something nice.

yeah, if I didn't know better, i would have thought they were OEM covers.

I have him making a similar set for my F150. My F150 came with the plain grey fabric that stains way too easy... For the price, way better than going OE.

thanks!

thanks! I got a good deal on the front upper and rear bumper, so I pulled the trigger. The vinyl seats were terribly uncomfortable, so I was looking for seat covers on eBay when I found the guy who makes them custom.
