Default " purpose built not bought ... but ok with being the underdog lol

Been awhile since I've been on here but here's recent pics of my current build. It's my Dailey driver and it will never be fast but it's a great family truck so far. Just trying to use OEM parts as much as possible but fabricated to be different.
.

2015 f150 but currently swapping to 18 headlights and grill but cutting up 4 different bumpers to make one. Shaving fenders and fabricating a custom tailgate . Raptor bed swap to tuck 22x12.5 Finspeed f14 wheels . Fabricating a new grill to resemble previous grill we made. Hood was fabricated by grafting a M3 hood skin onto stock hood, etc.

Before front end mods....

Thanks for the compliments !

I can't stress enough how happy I am with Viking. I've used Qa1, Strange, Billstein in the past with good results but Vikings are by far my favorite. Quality is very impressive, Ride quality is amazing, improved handling, etc. You won't be disappointed !

The ride quality is better than stock with no load and with 7-12 lbs in my helper bags. I was able to meet some of the guys from Viking at the PRI show this year and they were very knowledgeable as I am looking into doing coil overs on front.
