    Truck is coming along great man, blacking out those tails will make the tail end come together.
    I did mine full blackout before and went way too dark, ordered LEDs and they barely shone though the tint. :eek:

    So I took the tint off around the reverse, brake, and turn signals. I think it looks pretty good IMHO.

    Theres a silver taco around campus that has that sticker and it looks badass. I don't trust myself to put it on straight though haha. Ive been looking to get some 255/85r16 cooper discoverer st's but i need to get UCA's first to fix my alignment.

    Thanks man! those look sweet, very unique. I wanna get some blacked out led tails from ebay, gotta get some more pressing parts first though.

    Boobs from the first post? haha :cool:

    had a headlight burn out on me, so I got sylvan silverstar zXe headlight bulbs. the light is clearer and i think they are brighter. I also ordered some cheap (very) fog light bulbs from Amazon in "super white" to match the new headlights. The output in the fogs is a little less but i like how they look.

    new headlight bulbs and stock fogs
    [​IMG]

    with one fog changed
    [​IMG]

    and with both
    [​IMG]

    and also went on my first trail ride last weekend to shoe creek, had to avoid some areas but had a great time.

    Good meeting you this weekend!

    FYI, the hose clamp needs to go on the right side of the tailgate for it to be effective.
