New 2025 Raptor Owner!

Little update on the progress:

Testing out the tow hook covers, not 100% about them yet, would like them red, but not willing to commit to painting them yet.

Thailand brushed aluminum/gunmetal rear emblem.

Tinted side marker lights:

Amber DRL lights installed, rather than breaking things on the stock parts, opted to drill the plate. Still works perfect. Can’t get a good pic of the lights on though

Raxiom SpeedForm Series Throttle Controller

Ford Performance front sill plates for rear

Got me a set of Sasquatch beadlock capable rims along with new black lug nuts. Rims currently at powder coater, will be satin black rims with bronze rings.

Fresh from the powder coater, got the Sasquatch rims done, I thought them came out great, they were gloss black stock, wanted a stock vibe with the satin.

Got an Amazon BOV spacer, $19, figures I’d try it, pretty much same thing as the Boomba, couldn’t justify that price. Does exactly what it was designed to do!

The new wheels look great! Did you paint the brake calipers or did they come in black?

Thanks, It’s just the lighting, the calipers aren’t painted.

Thanks, I think they turned out awesome, loving the new offset also. Was debating to do the rim itself in bronze and a black ring, but wanted a contrast between ring and tire. Also kinda dumb, but I'm going for a white and bronze theme along with my Integra Type S.

Arrived today, Got the Ford Performance Air/oil separators installed. As stated in other posts, the drivers side bracket will be bent ever so slightly to make sure it doesn’t make contact with the A/C lines.

Finally got the black lug nuts, black locks, and bronze valve caps on. Accidentally order the wrong ones before or they would have been black from the start.

How was the factory oil separator install? Not sure if I found the instructions for the correct kit when I was looking a few weeks back, but the drivers side install seemed to be a pain with the instructions saying that some parts had to be broken to remove? I could be wrong, but curious since it would be nice to have factory parts used for this.

Sounds like you got the correct instructions, I got the same, says it’s for the Bronco Raptor, but it is identical. The tube on the drivers side almost impossible to remove unless you have a specific tool, maybe a fuel line removal tool would work for the removal. However I broke it on the valve cover, just a couple tiny tabs break. The driver's side was by far much harder than the passenger side, passenger side was quite easy though.

Fuel Removal tool, or something similar, just easier to break the tabs for me since I knew it wasn't going to be used again.
