Hello everybody,
Been lurking the forums for a bit and have recently picked up a 2019 VB Raptor, 802A, with 8k miles. I've owned a few F150s but mostly sports cars ranging from BMW M cars to hellcats and most recently a GT350. Saw it for the first time in person yesterday and took it offroading a bit. Had an absolute blast and honestly surprised on what it was able to do. Helluva truck!
The previous owner installed a Venom chase rack, Icon rebound 17" wheels, RPG collars for the front, paint matched fender flares. I'll be yanking the collars in favor of the Geisers and possibly getting new UCAs but I'll have to do more research on that. I'm also keeping the Icons, love those. As for the rack, I'm undecided. It looks pretty cool in my opinion and nice to have the tire readily accessible but it does take up a lot of space in the bed. As for the flares, I'm considering going back to black but will give it some time before doing so.
As for future mods, I have already purchased an ADD stealth fighter bumper with a 40" and two 10" light bars. The rear is an ADD honey badger bumper with 10" cube lights. Considering adding two 10" lights here as well. Picked these up from Raptor Utah who has also been helpful in many other way (thanks brother). Also getting Icon rear leafs (option 1 or 2 depending on if I keep the rack), bump stop, FMIC, Goosetuned tune, and most likely a Borla S-type exhaust.
Have learned a ton browsing through these forums in the past few months and wanted to thank everybody for sharing. I intend to learn and share as much as possible throughout this raptor journey.
