Guys, thanks a lot of getting these lights out to me. they look great and I'm stoked on them. They weren't even that dirty, Rich. Here are some before and after pics.

Nice...glad they got there.
That's real auto paint too...not the Nightshades stuff so you can wax, buff, polish....whatever...just like the rest of your truck.

*UNBROKEN* · 05-13-2008, 07:48 PM

Oh yea....for Pete's sake go put a shirt on.

darsey715 · 05-13-2008, 07:51 PM

dude it's freaking 89 degrees out here. gonna be high 90's tomorrow. can you say boat and jet ski and sac river and natty light? I can.

DCSpecial · 05-13-2008, 07:56 PM

It's a good thing there is a lot of orange peel in the paint on that tailgate......

Tint the 3rd brake light now.

I used rattle can stuff with clear and haven't had any issues

darsey715 · 05-13-2008, 08:30 PM

Rich, do you happen to know the % of tint on them?

*UNBROKEN* · 05-13-2008, 08:33 PM

No way to tell....it was black auto paint mixed with clear coat and sprayed till I liked it.

DCSpecial · 05-13-2008, 08:47 PM

Yep, that's pretty much how you do it. Spray it until you have enough coats to reach the desired darkness. Then clear them.

I'm just thankful he was wearing pants...

Looks good!

BFD99 · 05-13-2008, 08:57 PM

what lights did you get rich?

Santa Gertrudis · 05-13-2008, 09:36 PM

Those look exactly like my tails after I got em done. Mine arent quite as dark though, but close. Looks great man! I agree with DC though, you gotta do something about that 3rd brake light. Get you a Recon smoked LED one. They blend in and look awesome.

*Dalpilot* · 05-13-2008, 10:19 PM

Glad they made it out. Looks great.

darsey715 · 05-13-2008, 11:08 PM

you or whoever packaged them did a great job. thanks again man.

RacinDuallie · 05-14-2008, 07:55 AM

X 3 on the 3rd brakelight..... It sticks out like sore thumb....
