Hi, there. This may be a bit different than what is normally in this forum, but I'm actually a wife that just bought her husband a new (2013) Raptor. My husband is currently deployed and I bought it as a surprise. As of a now, it's just a standard Raptor. I'd like to know which thread/forum I should go to for recommendations on what mods I should do first? Trying to "pimp it out" as much as fiscally possible before my husband's return. Any advice would be most helpful! Thanks!

Welcome! Lucky husband right there! Im sure he wont be dissapointed!

Well, you have found the best forum around for the raptor. What are you wanting to do? There are hundreds of ways you can go when it comes to modifing this truck.

Let me know if theres anything i can help you with.

Welcome and wow what a surprise! For visual impact a front bumper with lights and depending on the factory wheel, replace those too. A bump stop if he plans on off-roading. Plan on setting aside around $5k, it goes fast!

I'm looking at simple/relatively inexpensive mods first that change the look. I know he was looking at the vents above the fender flares (sorry, I'm SOOO not truck term savy) and mirror reflector replacements (blacked out, yet functional blinkers) for his old truck, so I'm sure that's something he would be interested in for this truck. I've seen the illuminated decals and vent (still don't know what they're called) replacements? I like the idea of red lights.
