Damn... guess I'll have to paint mine. Thanks for the reply!

 

My Diamondback finally came in today. Mounted and ready to go!

 

Get the dealer to do it.

 

Gave her the ole spitshine....which was a 2 day process of wash, clay, wash, Turtle Wax Hybrid Ceramic polish and wax, and finished with Turtle Wax Hybrid Ceramic Spray. Also did my gfs car the same way but she drove off to work before I could grab some pics. This was my first time doing this and the polish and wax did a fantastic job of correcting many of the scratches I've accumulated over the miles. Links to the products used below the glory shots. Pups thought it was pretty ok too! Whew

Those are actually the old pro taillights.

 

I was wondering why I have seen these called pro taillights a few times. These came on my 2020 off-road

 

How? I got the ugly chrome tails with my 2020 off-road.

 

Look, I can't say much. When I learned you could change out the grill, I watched Lord only know how many vids on Youtube on HOW to change it out. I thought mine would take about 1-1.5 hours.

Naw.

It took me about 3 as well. Removing those clips from the colored grill piece were a bitch to remove for me. I was a noob to doing stuff myself to the truck. Saying that, it still takes me a small while to do some of the smaller mods. I know when I added the tailgate remote lock it took me about 3 hours. And that's only because of running the wiring and making sure it all looked right.

 

Installed three cool MESO stuff.

 

The newer pro i beleive has a black bezel instead of chrome, i got the older model pro tails wasn’t available without the black bezel and i like them personally better, got my truck last year had less than 500 miles before i broke one of my off road tailights... helping someone move some furniture and the end of the tie down stap was hanging off the back and i was backing up and the wheel caught the strap and by the time i realized it cracked the tailight so ordered from the dealer a set of those pro tails luckily it was just the taillight that was damaged

 

Where do you find these bezels?

I booked my fuel pump recall. not exciting...

 

What years does this affect? I put my VIN in on the website and my 2016 isn't affected. Just asking out of curiosity.

 

I am not 100% sure. Not all models are in the recall. I have a 2018 pro.

 

The Eagle Ladder has landed. This is the funniest shit I've seen in a day or so. It goes over the solar panel well and lands in a good spot. And...if I hit something, it ramps up and then down...Ahahahahahahahaha. I painted it but did not get a pic. Tomorrow the ladder saga continues.

I appreciate that man we’re all gonna make it !

 

I like this version better. Nice set up.
