I bought this truck almost a year ago like this, bone stock with 48k on the clock.

Then I tinted the windows, added a checkerpro bed cover, and a simple Alpine Type E sub.


Then I got a little bored so I decided to swap the front end.


Then came the tails

Side shot

I now have a roll pan on the way. I plan on getting the wheels in the pic below before the end of the month along with a mild 2" lowering kit. This is a shopped pic so bare with me.lol

Let me know what you guys think.

I actually don't like the front-end swap, I think it makes it look all "fake". But that's just what I think, I like the chrome bumper/grille look.

Other than that, it looks sick. Nice Ranger, I love it.

Looks good only thing I don's like is it looks like you simply painted over the front end, most notably because the ford blue oval is red. Looks great other than that
