    I actually have a set of retrofits already. However, they are faded and both headlights fog up when raining. I have been trying to find someone to rebuild/get info about remedying the issue.

    can't the fading be fixed with a lens restoration and polish
    and the fogging fixed by hiding some backs of desiccant inside the back of them

    To properly prevent those retrofit headlights from fogging is to bake them open and re-seal them

    Today I remodeled and updated a set of RCI skids I picked up. They are the first set RCI made for the 2nd gens and they have updated their tech since then, so I did a little update fabrication. I made a spacer bar that goes between the mid and the tcase skids to even stuff out because originally the cross member caused the tcase skid to run slanted and stick down in the back. Then I had to bend the front skid and drill new holes for the front mounting points because originally RCI designed the skid to mount to OE skid plate reinforcement brackets! I forgot to take pictures of the bending process, but I had to get pretty creative. I used 2×4's, my floor jack, and the weight of the vehicle. Way better now!

    4 coats of adhesive primer, 5 coats of matte black.

    Next silver trim piece's on the list to die...

    radio bezel and the gauge trim rings.

    Soon the silver trim nightmare will be over :devil:

    Thanks for all the insight :thumbsup:
