I have a Ranger Raptor on order here in the States, but with the UAW strike, no idea when I will get it. All great ideas that look easy to do. Look forward to more good content.
Great video, I have the "Code Orange" Raptor in Thailand. Looks she much better without the stickers. Next month the bumper and plate will be paint black by professional. Thanks 👍🏻👍🏻
Welcome to club. I jumped ship from y62 to the Raptor 5 months ago, hahah, but got a code orange with a bit more flavour and well have done the same as 62 and made 8t into a crazy build again and now its heavy so i reckon just go redarc go block or a battery behind the seat, 2way and compressor and a hard lid on the tub but the rest have a portable case set up for camping. 35s dont really change the ca4 that much but dont think they are needed on these so go on standard 33s or possibly close to a 34.
Cheers dude 🙌 yeah I’m really thinking I’m not going to do a heap to this thing. I’m still waiting for my compressor to show up🤣. At this stage I’m thinking pretty basic I want to show how good of a rig these are out of the box. I am so tempted to do 35s. Having already done them on the 60XPLR rig is probably the main reason I haven’t yet. I feel I need to do something slightly different or it’ll just be the same repetitive content. No one wants that 🤷♂️🤣
@HappyGoTravel people like customisationon these. I put compressor under the seat with scub bracket to protect compressor from water and dirt but the heat soak is huge and heats the underneath of the seat like crazy but i guess you will do the same as your mates one. Battery behind the seat worrys me as well with the kids in the car but i went amtron and max current on the battety i drew from it is 80 amps and is half the max load rating of it around 175 amps but have built a portable enerdrive system in a tred box for 240 volt power and large loads.
@@jamiewilliams7618 yeah I ordered the same kit as the 60XPLR rig for the compressor. I think arb did an awesome job on it. I’m still a little undecided on the dual battery. I am thinking of tub mounting one
Hahhahaha I take it you like your stickers then? With the aggressive pumped stance of a Raptor they’ll never look anything less than what they are. But I guess at the end of the day it’s all about personal taste 🤷♂️
hi my friend I always watch your videos on the raptor which are great tell me what feelings can you give me on the new calandra lamp that you installed the led bar? Do you think the lighting quality and power are sufficient?
Has the raptor coat lasted on the bash plate? My black raptor should arrive in January and I want to black out the silver bash plate until I end up getting a new one.
I've had my Raptor for a few months now and sticker was gone the first day. I have been looking at options for the lower section. Was considering wrapping, but raptor coat looked good on camera. Would you go Raptor coat over a wrap? Thanks for the videos they have been very helpful.
Cheers mate. The Raptor coat actually came out heaps better than I was expecting 🤣. Another option you could do is pull it off and take it to a powder coater I’d imagine it’d only cost a couple of hundred at most.
I like the raptor sticker
Ordered mine in Canada the day it was offered also in white, very happy to have stumbled upon your video !
Mate you’ll love it✌️
@@HappyGoTravelIf I ever get it ...... Delayed 6 months so far, Ford and the UAW aren't playing nice these days
@@seanhannon2667 i waited 10 months for mine. Definitely worth it
Got mine on Friday. Aluminium colour
Will be painting exhaust and bash plate like yours..
Looks great.
Thanks for the video
Cheers mate. You’ll love it they’re soo much fun to drive
Can you post some pictures.

I started to order the white one but I love the Hot Pepper better
I enjoy driving my Raptor every day
Looks micky mouse now mate.
Can’t wait to see what you do with the big rocket 👍🏽
Cheers mate ✌️
Nice XLT bro. 😂 Welcome to raptor club! Ps man, you look shredded! Well done.
🤣🤣🤣 come on XLS every day 🙌 cheers bro. It was a long 10 month wait after I drove the 60XPLR rig🤣
Sweet they are now on my list 🤙
they're all simple but make a good visual difference
Hahah..I am waiting for my white one next month..I am gone paint these exhaust for sure
It’s so easy to do and looks soo much cleaner
overall you were right the rear exhaust outlets are much better in black, explain to me why we got a chrome one on it
In some of the prototypes they were black but the kept getting chips so the went stuff it🙌
How to make i5 XL spec in one easy lesson. Bland as
Hahhahaha I take it you like your stickers then?

Possible to get a good side by side of yours and the conquer grey as it’s the two choices I’m choosing between colour wise haha
Watch this space closely id say ill have a black one in the mix on Friday too, it'll be all over my socials
How is the paint holding up? Any flaking or chipping yet?
Has the raptor coat lasted on the bash plate?
My black raptor should arrive in January and I want to black out the silver bash plate until I end up getting a new one.
yeah its really good so far
Boys do you think the ute master lid is worth it?
I personally don’t but Damo loves his. Don’t get me wrong it’s cool af but not 4k+ cool
Did you clean or sand/scuff the plate an bash bar before applying the raptor paint?
Just a wash and then wax and grease remover
Quick question, did that plastic front bumper section have your front sensors in them? Did you take them out?
No it was just a pointless plate. all the sensors are intact and functional
Where did you buy your raptor multi use coating for bash plate?
I just got the multi from super cheap. And the heat proof from repco
Lastly dis you sand/prime before you coat the bashplate with multi?thanks cheers
@@banmedel9225 nah I just cleaned it thoroughly with wax and grease remover. The raptor paints stick like shit to a blanket 🤣
