    I am also messing around with a light tint on the reverse/turn buckets. A light coat takes the "edge" off the chrome, yet still should provide plenty of reflection.

    Top=Stock shiny chrome
    Bucket= subdued chrome

    Good thing I'm handy with a dremel. Don't worry, I'll sanitize it.

    Everybody prefers the Pro lights over the other trims. Only natural they want the mesojdm PROs over the other trims.
    Maybe more teasers of other options might persuade them :thumbsup:

    ....If not, I don't mind sharing in that look! ;)

    We are on about version 9.2. Lets go for double digits:taco:

    I'm actually going to run the turn signals off a dimmer..they are just too bright. Like ambulance bright. Once headlights come on, they will flash @ ~75% of nomal output. That way at night, I'm not the dick blinding the the driver behind me every time I have to turn:cool:. But in the day, they will be 100%. So no excuses If you couldn't see me.


    Other news: I MOVED into my new office.:yes:
    Now I get to make even more cooler stuff.

    And since you guys like the BROPROS so much, here they are in the SUN.[​IMG]



    And finally...why each light takes time!:
