My extra lights came today!

Would like them done in SILVER to match my truck.
Is it easier for you to get the paint or for me to?

Do you have any of the clear cornor reflectors around you could use in place of the amber ones?
I saw awhile back you where able to do this for another member.

Do I pay for shipping both ways up front or you give me a quote...

PMing you my phone and email...

No I never was able to find the pic. It was on a white supercharged f150 he also added roof top lights. He sold his truck so maybe isn't a member here now.

I can try and photo shop it.

Otherwise wonder if they may look better just silver. His where black with the chrome.

What's your opinions would this look good if the housing are done in Silver?

We could paint yours that way if you would like. With the silver/chrome it will not pop nearly as much as the black/chrome does, but might be a subtle change.

I dont like the grey on silver..... it just looks off, like they tried to ptm and got the wrong color. With the ptm silver or the black it looks purposely done.

The turn around just depends on when they get to me. My biggest problem is getting to the shipping facility to drop the lights off since I start work before they open and end after they close. However I have 5 days off starting friday of next week.

Base and clear coat paint on the way to you. Ordered this morning.

Headlights on way this afternoon...

Sorry took a bit was waiting to get my truck back.


Think I'm going to ask you to paint the housing silver.

Just leave the reflectors chrome...

When you smoke the corners can they be done very lightly?

Or with the chrome behind it painted will that give that effect?

Blackout lights with the smoked reflector and blacked out turn signal bowl.
And if you have em blacked out fogs for an 05. If not, those can wait until I can ship you mine.

Lord sent me some pics of mine! They are on there way back to me!

Anyone thinking about having him do your heads for you...

I HIGHLY recommended his work, he does a great job and is very professional.

As soon as there here and on the truck I'll get some pics up.
