I would ditch the light covers, they look tacky on trucks. There's several threads around here that show you how to paint the inside, outside, etc and I think they will look alot better I'm jealous you got that paint job so cheap, i've always wanted to paint mine black but there is no way I can justify paying so much just to change color.
