    I think he was going to finish them this weekend. He was waiting for a new, better sealant to come in.

    Well some have asked for pics and I'm sure Greg is ready to get these....I put the new sealer on and took them to the car wash this weekend. The car wash I go to is a drive thru wash that lasts about 7 mins with constant water. I took pictures immediately following the wash and all looked good.

    So I'm hoping they should hold up. :)

    Here are the pics.

    OH MY GOD! Those are PERFECT! I was going for the look of a transformer eye. I showed my wife the pictures, without telling her the look I was going for and she said, "Those look wicked, it looks like optimus prime's eye!"
    They turned out perfect, and I can't wait to get them and get them installed. It's so awesome that your truck is the same color as mine too, cause now I can see them pretty much how they will look on my truck! LOL.
