Bummer to see a beautiful smoke job stripped, but I look forward to your project progression!

OK, all done. Man what a PITA to sand off. Not perfect, but I like it.

You never hear anyone say 'How About Some Daytime Pics'. lol











The main reason I took the tint job off was because it was WAY too dark and I am too old to hassle with the cops about illegal tails. Besides I haven't had a ticket since 1994.

Garage, awaiting new rubber for springtime. I always take my wheels off in winter anyway because I don't want to ruin them on ice or with the road chemicals.

^^ Well this time after I get new tires, my Yokos are toast.

OK daytime pics. Don;t mind the brown truck. :o







They sure are red on my truck, makes me want to get a red 3rd brake light, since my smoked one is starting to malfunction. :o

Check these out, I think they'd look pretty sick on your truck. I got them to match my Harley heads and plus I like the fact that the lens itself isn't tinted.

I like the Hellas. I just need to let them grow on me some. Plus I think a red 3rd will tie it together. Found an all red LED 3rd on ebay for $31 shipped.

Typically when would you put them back on? I'm running "winter" wheels too.

Well last year when I had the Boss wheels I didn't take them off. I'm going to take better care of these HD's. I'd usually put them back on in springtime, no date on the calendar, just a day when I am not feeling like a slacker.

The tires I had were really old and darn near worn out. I need to get some new ones before putting the 22's back on. Until thwen I'm going to enjoy the ride of the 265/70-17's (same OD as the 305/40-22's).
