G'day guys

[Ausraptor]

I live in Australia and have been so jealous of you guys and the vehicles available to you in the US.
We can only get small Japanese 4x4 utes such as hilux. Navara and ranger.
When researching f150's a month back I came across the raptor of which I had never seen before. It was love as first sight!!
So I am getting one converted as we speak and should be ready late December/ feb.
decided on black screw..
I haven't got any major mods planned but to start I will be installing UHF radio and some amber strobe lights installed behind the grill and maybe in the 3rd brake light ( if it will fit). I want to run lights through aux switch but need to wire it so it runs with vehicle turned off.
Also want to install Arb compressor under the bonnet. Will be doing heaps of beach driving and will come in handy.
I will look at CAI later on.

This forum is a great resource of info but its getting me a little over excited!!

Welcome. Where in Australia? Any idea if you will be the first down under with a Raptor?

Bonnet! That's rich.

Welcome and congrats on your Raptor. You won't be disappointed

Afternoon...bonnet does not really have a masculine ring to it...sounds like what my grandmother where's Easter Brunch...

Language barrier...

Cheers,

Welcome from Texas.

I saw a video of a company that does the right hand drive conversions. WOW! They did a great job. Can't remember who it was but the video was posted here someplace.

Yeah. Bonnet is a bit girly, especially for the raptor!!!
A hood (if that's what you call it) is what we call the young riff raff getting around vandalizing and tagging buildings.

I'm in Brisbane and never seen a raptor on the road. I've heard there is a few getting around. Going to turn some heads that's for sure.

I would love to take my Raptor down under, talk about an ultimate adventure..
