Upgrades to Expedition

[Lou Hamilton]

Decided to start this thread as an ongoing attempt to capture upgrades done to my Expedition.

Upgrades made up until now:

- Blacked out the C Pillar
- Tinted front windows to match rear windows
- Added center console organizer
- Husky mats for all three rows, plus cargo
- Vanity plate - VDR R0X

I will add my upgrades to the first post since I don’t believe I can update this initial post, but I can edit my responses.

Perfect poke, IMO.




Only trimming that had to be done was a small internal portion of my front mud flap inside the wheel well.

I’ll try to get a picture of it later.

Blacking out the C pillar was a solid choice. Get ya some nice and dark tint to go with it!

Also. Diggin the wheel/tire combo.

Looks killer! I can’t believe that 1” all the way around makes it fit so much better. If I don’t do 37’s I think I will go with that size tire.

I agree that the C pillar mod was a great choice, especially on the white.

Front windows are tinted as dark as Maryland allows. They are the same as the rear windows.

Thanks. I saw the same wheel/tire combo on a 2021 Ford Bronco and fell in love with the look.

Thanks!

I was surprised (and relieved) that they fit as well as they do.

My wife’s first response was, “I hate it” but then quickly retracted and said that it actually does look really good, just far different than she had thought it was going to look.

It does sit up quite a bit higher. Love the higher stance, for sure!

Man it looks good and has me rethinking my whole program... again---If you can--Picture Request:

More of the front and rear poke and if you could show where it would touch up front? From top down?

Soooo much better than those Stealth wheels!

I’ll see if I can get some shots today or tomorrow.
