    All good. Those look clean.. but need to be on a black taco!
    Do they make lens swaps for 2nd gen that look like that?
    Also, it appears that the OEM lights are still behind the different colors.. how do you isolate the different functions?

    You mind photo shopping a black 3rd gen with the color scheme of my lights?
    I'll give you much karma

    Both look good, but if they were tinted on the inside like the current offering's from @mesojdm, then that would take them to a whole new level.

    Thank you! That looks awesome:thumbsup:

    Yes, I've seen that picture.. but my version has the red and orange sections switched. So I was hoping to see what it would look like photoshopped. And to be honest.. idk if many people would even notice..
    Exactly.:headbang:
    They did a good job.. I just don't like how translucent it is.

    These are a one-off. Too much work to a bunch of sets. At least right now.
    This is more or less of an experiment..and to see if I can pull it off.:D

    I feel like the first ones would look better on quicksand. The second ones look better on that black.

    Well.. in the spirit of a true replica, the correct color orientation would be ideal. But in this situation, I'm trying to balance function with form.. and the best way to do that is flip the red/orange.
    Bold move cotton.. we'll see if it pays off.
