New York (which sucks)
Alright I'm new to forums. I have a 2000 Expo EB. I've had it for about a year and I want to start modding. The truck is mostly stock except 20" BIGG rims, a fake scoop and a new exhaust. I'd like to get Halo Projector Headlights, smoked LED tail lights/3rd brake light, and some minor bolt ons. My ultimate goal is to have a sleek, lowered Expo with a decent sound system that would be more of a street machine than an offroader. I'll start with headlights. Any comments, warnings, suggestions about projector headlights?

Welcome to the forum.

I don't have any experience with projector headlights, but I've read quite a bit about them here on this forum and other Ford truck forums.
If you are looking at the projector lights on ebay, I'm not sure how happy you will be.
For appearance purposes, you could be very pleased. But performance is another issue.
Light output apparently isn't very good and using HIDs with them isn't recommended.
Also, wiring them could be tedious depending on your skill level.

The LED tail lights and 3rd Brake lights seem to be good though for quality/performance.

Also, if you are looking to lower it check out the ground force lowering kits.
I'm assuming you have a 4x4 by the picture. This kit lowers it 2" all around (can't go any lower than that with the 4x4 without issues). There are 2 different kits for the 4x4s--one for coil spring and one for air suspension. I think it costs around $500 - $1,000.

Once again, welcome and good luck!
