    Put some new tail lights on since I busted one last time I went wheeling



    I like the way the new ones look, I put extra silicone around them so hopefully they will hold up in wet weather as well :fingerscrossed:

    Added a VLED license plate light. Connected it to my rock lights so I can turn it on anytime. It can splice into your reverse lights but I don't need a light this bright turning on every time I put it in reverse.

    Handles were already black to begin with but faded so I went over them since I had extra plastidip. Just did it as I would anything else, taped off a section and peeled off the excess.
