    Has anyone done it? Almost ready to pull the trigger, but still a little nervous it might look like crap. I'd love to see some pics if anyone's got them!

    It'll look good. BHLM looks good on anything.. I do imagine that it would look SICK on impulse red.

    Wow that satin black looks badass! I'm think satin or charcoal gray-- with a charcoal gray grill surround and black T-Rex billet grill

    Hey guys, this is my first post on your forum. I recently did the BHLM on my truck. It took me a few years to decide but I'm glad I did it.

    Here are some shots before I added matching angry eyelids

    And here the shots after adding angry eyelids (please excuse the dirty truck)

    I'm also considering adding a black vinyl to the bumper. Something like this

    And finally, I'm considering getting my wheels powder coated in a gunmetal color. Sorry for the long post guys.

    I'm digging your style.... A factory skid plate (painted black or gray) would look great with the vinyl you PSed in there. Go for the gunmetal wheels, I think that will tie it all together. I'm a much bigger fan of IR/black than IR/chrome!

    As for me, I bit the bullet and bought some black aftermarket lights, we'll have to see how they look once they're in. I know I could do the BHLM no problem, but probably would have bought a second set of factory lights so I didn't eff up the only set I had. Should have them in about a week and maybe I'll toss some photos up once they're installed.
