volksnuts’ Lariat Maverick build

[volksnuts]

i haven't actually seen one but i was told no. that’s why escape lowering springs won’t fit the hybrid.

Even still there are plenty of FWD Ecoboosts around

dropped off a Ranger PTM tailgate handle and some front corner lights to be painted HPR
Wasn't happy with how the tint job came out so I figure why not painmt to match

Also got another set of emblems to try some things on

Added some things fresh out the paint shop

Winner!

The thing that sucks about it is you have to cut the belt to get it off

next step is to remove the middle belt cage thing
Hoping to make as much room as possible behind the seat
For reasons

How on earth would it be possible for anyone to install a new one if the old one has to be cut to be removed? That makes no sense.

Not my problem
I’ll never need to have a middle seat belt
That’s a future owners issue

That isn't what I meant. I mean it mechanically makes no sense. If you have to cut the belt apart to remove it, then how could you possibly install a new one? I feel like you had to have done something wrong here.

Lol, oh
Well the belt anchor was connected/shared with the seat next to it so if I was removing all belts it would have been fine and unbolted
But I just wanted the one gone
So I had to cut it off the anchor

Got my badges, will hopefully work on them this week…..

this is right after getting the frontal PPF
Was so clean and had to drive through a bunch of rain to get home
Clean truck is now dirty truck

Your truck looks awesome! What percent tint is your windshield?

Finally got around to messing with the badges
And cleaned up the hitch area
I didn’t want to try to paint them myself so I tried using NiteShades spray tint (did a test beforehand)
It’s pretty cool, made the chrome lok like black chrome and darkened the Ford blue to a near black
No idea how well it’ll hold up but if it goes to crap I’ve got back up badges I can have painted
