Fogs can be done as well. I can either Smoke the inside of the lens, smoke over the chrome, kind of creating a black chrome look, or paint the chrome black. For your rectangular fogs I can also mask off part of the chrome if you wish to still have a bit on there. Either way, if you send me your fogs I will do the work on them for $25. (You pay shipping both ways)

As for the reflector, the ones in the picture are pretty much black. Ill try to get a shot of them today when I get home from work. They do still however light up orange at night, but yet the orange light coming through the reflector is diminished. I can lightly smoke them if you want as well.

Have to see what I can do about the Fogs....how long would it take for that...just not sure how long i'll be driving without lights there lol......you should start a business doing this.




The ones on the F150 still look like they have some reflectiveness to it so I'm still puzzled as whether to go with the orange or smoked out look?

There is very little orange left on those reflectors. but light still does transmit through them. also I smoked and then cleared those reflectors to make them glossier.


As for how long things would take. I can honesl have it done probabl the sae day I get them. They would spend more time traveling than at my house.

I would love to get the set with both bowls chrome and with the reflector not painted. How soon could I get them and how do you want to be paid.

Once I get the return set of lights from UsfBulls I can pull these open and put you on number 3 if you wish. It can usually be done same day I receive them and ready to ship soon after.

Im also trying to find a couple of extra sets to keep you guys from having to wait too long.

Thats a good deal Bro! The only thing to watch out for is the shipping cost, when i sold my old headlights it cost me almost $60 just for shipping and i sold them for $75 shipped, so obviously only got $15 for them after paying the shipping. Just wanted to give you a heads up on that.

Blackout, who did you ship your stuff though? That sounds ridiculous. Based off weight they should be more like 20-30 bucks.
