    Dude you are the man, I just went through your supra build and that thing looks sweet. well the motor at least cause thats all I really looked at. but owning two nice vehicles at 19 is pretty impressive.

    REALLY good actually. They are super bright. Like i was really impressed. I broke my drivers side one doing it, but some super glue made it usable till i get new ones. Thinkin ill get some clean ones as i have amber bulbs. But yea, it works great. I just didn't want to have to rewire anything.

    And thanks, i love the bumper :cool:

    Awesome!! It really transforms the front of the truck. I like what you did for turn signals, that is what I would do as well.

    How was the install? You must have had to have one or two people hold it up or some other type of brace to support it whille you were mounting it up.

    Yea my blinker mod turned out slick lol Im ordering some clear ones so maybe ill do a write up.

    and yes i have one other person help lift it on to the first two bolts. After that he just held it there while i put the rest of the bolts in. Was pretty easy really.
