North AL Burgers, Boggers, and Modders Meet!!

hmmm i used i think either 9 or 11 coats of black and like 7 coats of clear, if i rem correctly. brian or kyle may be able to confirm the actual number.

 

yeah i had one of those brian perfection moments on those headlights, but they really turned out nicely. IMO

 

awesome man! im ready for it!

 

wonder how a white headlight mod would look on your truck??? since you will have the white satoshi and all. ever thought of that?

 

hmmmm anyone good with photoshop? id be willing to give it a shot if it looks good

 

ask in the photshop thread. those guys could try it out real quick for ya. just thought that would really set your truck apart from the rest.

 

Ok I think Im gonna go with the satin black. We have some Rustoleum plastic paint at work I guess Ill use unless someone has some bad experiences with it. Also I know the factory headlights have enough sealant to just stick back together, however Im not so sure about these aftermarket ones. Should I pick up some kinda sealant just in case? If so what should I get?

 

you can get black rtv silicone or you can get the actual 3m headlight sealant at work. should be on the bottom shelf of your adhesive aisle, by the spray on headliner if i rem correctly. ha ha. either will work they say.

 

Haha!!!! Yes that is exactly where it is lol!!! So that a yes correct??

 

its up to which you want to use, i think most use the black rtv bc its easy to find and cheap and they dont see the actual headlamp sealant roll stuff. both work as far as i know. depends what you want to work with. a tube or a roll.

ok whlm is yummy yummy. not a fan of the white taillight mod. but black taillight mod would be good.......

 

Yeah, the color matched lights look pretty cool. I like the concept of the tails, but with the red lens, you could never get it to look the right color.

 

seee............. i knew i had a couple good ideas still left in the old noggin.

 

well.....i was denied a loan for the motorcycle.....the bank gave me a 19k loan for my truck but wouldnt do a 3k dollar loan....FFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUU

 

The debt to income ratio! It fucks us all! Just cause you know you can afford something doesn't mean the banks know that!

 

haha well my debt to income ratio would still be verry verry good. but they said i have good credit but not enough credit. whatever. kinda bummed i was really lookin forward to the bike. guess ill just wait til i get my tax return and go pay cash for one

 

Their you go! I wish I could use mine on something like that!

 

what it prob is is that you just got a loan for your truck not too long ago and when you take out a loan it actually kind of puts a hold on your credit for some banks to where they wont want to give another loan for so many months. its a screwed up system but it all came about during the housing crisis.
