Bone stock- Looks new! 2003 Expy

[AW_3_3]

2003 Ford Expedition XLT, Arizona Beige. 4.6L V8. Friend dyno'ed it us the other day. Still putting out a respectable 226HP @ 5000RPM with 55,000 miles on it (232 stock) Cleaned up, I would almost go so far as to say she looks like new!




--NOTE- Mom drives this car most of the time so she put her stickers on it--

Nice expedition... spend about $30 on Krylon Fusion paint and take 4 hours of your time to paint the lower cladding and it will look like new.

That's a clean Expedition. Nice!

It's hard to imagine that my 03 once looked that good. It has been dragged to the jobsites for years and hauled anything you can imagine. I need to spend a weekend detailing her.

Thanks for the inspiration to make her nice again!

Smo0oth thanks for the tip about krylon fusion paint. my lower cladding has faded horribly. I have the same color scheme as this one. how close can the paint match?

Nice, I remember when mine was stock. For about 30 50 bucks, you can go down to your local auto paint store and have them mix you up a single stage paint match to your truck, as well as get some bulldog plastics adhesive promotor. it comes in a spray can. I would use some of that even if you krylon, because it helps the paint stick to the plastic better and not peel off. I would say i painted my plastics about threee years ago, and only have a few little spots by the back doors where the kids jump on the car getting in.
