Air Design Side Trim

[Chops]

You’ve heard the expression of “putting lipstick on a pig”?

How about “putting overalls on a princess”?

Going to replace my pretty but damaged body color Lobo rear bumper with a black one to finish the look.

I like it. Goes well with your fender flares.
Is this for cosmetic purposes or are you trying to give more protection against door dings? Could be both, right?

Should be color matched

I agree, it should be color matched.
What exhaust system did you install?

What exhaust system did you install?

Borla X-Type. Not to be confused with the Ford Performance Garage Borla Sport. I’d recommend the Sport.

I agree with you and F100Lobo
Maybe I’ll color match the other side that I haven’t installed yet

Black Trim/Fender would look good on white, red, or grey truck. Not as good on blue.

Is the X-Type too loud?

Is the X-Type too loud?

Not only too loud - but painfully droney in the cab. It was not tuned properly for the Sport & Lobo modes especially!

I added an $100 resonator/muffler and it sounds great both in & out of truck now.

Cold start is still very loud though. I open my garage just a foot when I start up - open fully once high idle is complete

I have added aluminum buty sound deadener to nearly every panel of my Maverick.
I have coverd the inside of the fenders, top half of the tailgate, in the doors, under the rear seat, under the carpet, the roof and the back wall.
I added 4mm foam deadener to back side of the door panels.
I also added the fome over the aluminum butyl under the rear seat and the roof.
The result is better than I expected.
The truck is almost limousine quite.
And the stereo sounds better!

An aftermarket exhaust would ruin your beautiful & skillful work!

I’m impressed with the OEM exhaust now in my garage. I’m thinking of reusing the minimalist resonator “patch” near the tailpipe:

My S-Type was $300 cheaper. My ford service guy ordered it and I picked it up at the dealer. I ended up having to spent $100+ to modify it,

I was wondering what the screen was for. Never crossed my mind that it was a resonator.
