My mods under fm50 include :

New badges/emblems - $35.00

Rubber gum wheel for removing old adhesive. It comes in handy more than youd think. Just dont use it on plastic, dont ask me how i know... - $50.00

ecoboost lower grille - $38.00
The quality was good, easy install. Ive done this one on 2 trucks with success.

I have the same model/trim truck.

I tied into the OEM LED lights and that didn't work out.

Default Mirror Caps

I did the same thing to my 2014 STX. Really made the truck look better. I also added a Raptor style grill after Mo OEM was destroyed by a crow 🐦‍⬛



QUOTE=jeramey100;1943839]Painted my mirror caps to match my truck. About 50 bucks for everything needed.

Also put blue led's in for interior lights, 40 bucks off ebay, no pics but you get the idea.

Default 2009-2014 Ford F150, AmericanTrucks.com Axial F150 Smoked Led Mirror Mounted Turn Si

Each of the turn signal modifications are under $50. This is a very cool upgrade, with very little skill required. Be super careful not to break the mirrors glass.

my buddy a TX cop for almost 30 yrs, says he thinks that blue light law is pretty standard everywhere, but his 2 cents falls inline with what you said. as long as theyre not blinking or have a strobe effect and are not mounted on the top or front, then youre good to go. you shouldnt be able to see the blue light from the front of the vehicle, so you cant be confused as an emergency vehicle.

Getting ready to do this, just waiting for the delivery. Also going to try adding puddle lights while I’m there.
