Thank you all for the warm welcome!
Absolutely love every second of driving my raptor! Shifting does get quite clunky and rough when at slower speed. Hopefully the 5-star tune will clean that up.
I'm not going to be doing any heavy offroading for the mean time, so I'm not worried about the 200$ cutout being banged up. My neighbors have a newborn and my truck sits very close to his bedroom. The goal is to have a aggressive, loud exhaust when I want and to be able to tone it down when I start my day early/end it late.
Also, no mid perch mod for me. The parking deck I have to park in downtown Atlanta is at 7' tall and it already feels like I'm about to hit my face on a cement pillar. The truck measure out to be 78ish inches at the highest point from the ground. I'm sure I could pull it off but I am happy with how the truck sits currently.
As for the matte yellow wrap, it will be interesting. I'm still deciding if I should be wrapping the flares and bumper as well or leaving those for contrast. I will be wrapping the truck myself in my shop.
