    Red, well... lol
    When it comes to Retro's I am very picky, which is why it took so long to finally do them. Even though there are some higher end components and options available for retrofitting I tried keeping everything simple and subtle and wanted the camo to be the wow factor. The money isn't an object thing has nothing to do with it... just like what I like, want what I want lol

    I'm thinking about hydro dipping mine in digital camo, has anyone else done this? I'm wondering if I need a base coat or hydro dip over the chrome?

    After paying almost $1700 and then a whole year of waiting I finally got my lights, one of them isn't tuned well on the cut off at all. Very bad experience too trying to get a hold of them. I was just happy tp have my lights. They did do a clean job though so I'll give them that, also RAD is a good guy to deal with in general. I would have been fine with the time frame if that' what I was told from the get go, but when I'm told six week turnaround and then just excuses after that, it gets old.
