Still wrong body rims grill and paint not to mention the decals are in the wrong spot... You can't build a Shelby cobra... A kit car will always be a kit car

I trust you ripped the stickers off of yours as you changed most of the stuff that made it an FX4 Level II then?

Mine is a "Custom" and it is very much "custom"

About year two, when I got it it was wearing a black grille otherwise it was the same. I have a pic somewhere from about two weeks after I got it but I haven't been able to find it.


Then:

Shortly before I wrapped up the 8.8 swap a couple weeks ago:

this doesnt make sense to me.. why would he take off his level 2 stickers if he put extra stuff onto it?
thats like me buying a cobra, and doing engine mods better tires etc, i wouldent take off the cobra emblems would i?
its just building onto it.

nope, sure didn't! basshead hit the nail on the head here! it's not the parts that make the truck what it is, it's what it is that makes it what it is... if you get your dick chopped off and implants, you may walk like a woman, and talk like a woman, but i know you're still a guy and i'm not going to have sex with you..

If you are going to nitpick, it can go both ways. Especially over something as minor as a FX4 Level II. It struck me odd that one guy that has very little left on his FX4 is worked up about another guy that probably has more FX4 stuff on his truck having FX4 stickers.

The FX4 Level 2 was basically a torson rear diff, shocks, stickers, skidplates, wheels, tires and different interior... big deal. It is by no means comparable to a Cobra. More like comparing a Mustang GT to a Mustang GT Premium... most people don't really care anyway.

Except unlike people swapping parts on a truck work just as good as if they would have came there originally. If not better if you are brave enough to mix and match with other things (like the shorter wheelbase of the other truck which I think should have been an option for an offroad oriented truck to start with)
