Christmas present to myself

I told myself that I wasn't going to buy anything else for the truck for a long time, that lasted all of about a month. I ended up buying a brand new pair of tails and 3rd brake light from another member here who was selling his truck. I had the everything shipped directly to bambo2888, he had them less than a week and then shipped them to me. I got them today and all I can say is WOW!! Dan (bambo2888) did a great job and the lights turned out just as I wanted them. If you are looking to get your lights tinted I would highly suggest sending them to him.

Here are the pics, they aren't the greatest. Just some crappy cell phone pics, I wish I could have got better ones but my wife can't find out camera right now. They look MUCH better in person!

His truck is already gone, and I agree, but then again i did alot of the work on it, so i might be a little biased

Thanks! Here is what my "old" 3rd brake light looks like, my new one is almost identical only a little darker. I haven't installed the new one yet, and probably won't until spring.

Ah they look great! And I'm really glad you like them!

FYI, I have a regular (non-step side) set ready to be tinted... and there's no waiting list =)

Thanks. As of right now I am not planning on doing anything with the heads or fogs. Since my "good wheels" are chrome I want to leave some "chrome" on the the truck to kinda tie the wheels in. If I were to do anything, I would buy the all "chrome" lights off ebay to get rid of the orange reflector in the heads.

On edit: I did just notice that I need to update the picture in my sig, as there has been a number of things that have changed since that picture was taken. But that will now have to wait until spring.

IMO, black out the headlights as well, will really make the wheels pop.
