Thumbs up

Rich,
It looks great, Your truck has always been one of the nicest that I have ever seen. I even used one of your pics for my wallpaper for a while.

Who's clear corners are you useing? I bought the 01 Tails, headlights, But I didn't care for the 01 corners. I didn't want any orange in mine.
Thanks, Bill

Thanks, guys.

Bill:
The corners are in a box marked Diamond (Cut).
I got them from Steve (mrtailight.com). The yellow cast is from the bulbs. Will have to look for lighter yellow bulbs next.

I would have to agree. Look smooth. Thats is for sure one of the nicest lightnings out. Keep up the good work. What funny, did you see who all is making the comments on how nice it is. The other pioneers in the Lightning field. Having some of those guys complement your truck. I would say that people are going to like it.

Can you tell me where you got your grill? I just got the same bumper cover as yours, it has the grill in it, but I can't find the upper grill.
Tks in advance for your assistance

Bobby:

The grille is a Street Scenes Speed grille.
You can find them at CarParts.com. It will take you to JCWhitney's site to purchase.

SWEET!!
I've been wanting to put those grilles on my L. How hard was it to install? If you don't mind, how much?

I'm going to have to wait on getting the grilles cause I just ordered a set of 9007 HID lights from hids4less. Can't wait to get those puppies on my L. If you're interested in the lights let me know cause I got them really cheap through someone else with a GB. I got these real HID lights made in the USA with German parts, not cheap Korean, for only $450 shipped.

Surfs:

JC Whitney is selling the Lightning grilles for $85.00 each($170.00 total).

Roger Lemere could probably do you right on them or even chrome one's if you're interested(Online Store).
I would have bought mine from him, but by the time I got the quote, I had already purchased these. I wanted them NOW!
Sorry, Roger...

Install was actually easier than the Trenz billet one's I had before.
*Note: If you buy the grilles, don't use the clips that they provide. Use clear wire ties. Much better solution, IMO.

I have the 9007's already, but would like to see an L with a true HID setup.

Hey, Joey(Killa)! The mirrors are on my list. Gathering up some stuff to have painted now. Watch for them!
