The grille looks white to me?!

The bumper valance looks like it could be painted white

I'd tint the windows, throw a billet grille set on the front, and a stereo in there and ride out clean!

tint goes without saying. After driving the Crx for the last 5+ years with no a/c...it is time I enjoy having it!!! I just have to wait til I can afford it (had some money come up missing lately ).

A billet grill would definately look nice. The grey in the front will good in white.
What about gas milage though? I've been wondering about a 4.6 in that gen of f-150 for work. I'm hoping it would click off 15mpg in town and 20 highway. The cafe ratings they give for cars aren't usally to good.

Camera phone pic, but here's what she looks like now. Swapped hoods, wheels, and trim with my friend's 04 Lightning. He was planning on painting the entire top of his black, so this saved him a little work as far as the paint lines are concerned. We didn't get to finish painting the lower portion because it started pouring yesterday, so that's why she looks so high in the front
