    What are your plans for those? Good looking rig dude. My toytec lift is set to arrive today with my Ballistic rims. Can't wait to see them in person finally!

    Thanks! and yea I used the nightshade stuff on them. I did 3 coats i think, and layed them on pretty thick. I washed my truck with maguires soap and just took a dry rag to them before i sprayed away. Once you lay on that first coat, you'll be able to judge how dark you want it by adding more coats. Its a reliable and sweet lookin $5 mod :cool:

    How good did the plasti dip last on the rear bumper? I've been thinking about doing that but wasn't sure whether or not it was worth it.

    In my opinion man its def worth it! It has suprisingly lasted through many car washes without a single problem. It just looks way better than that ugly chrome and its a $5 maybe half and hour job

    Well i posted on AsianAnts retro but i was pretty much clueless when i opened the box from the retrofit source. It has everything i need to finish the retro including the bulbs, ballasts, and harness. I guess i just expected a "step by step" process/instruction guide as to what to do....

    So far i just attached the ballasts to the backside of the headlight, im trying to figure out how to hook up the harness...

    The harness is fairly simple what are you having trouble with? The hard part for me anyway was mounting the projector and getting to cut offs to be Keble with each other. But I have been told that I have OCD so who knows.
