Got the foglights at walmart! They came with a chrome surround piece, but that piece just pops off. The lights were only 40 bucks...

 

i really wanna do mine PTM but im leary of the look.
My truck is blue and i think if i do them blue it would put too much blue up front, and i have a subtle blue/chrome look going.

besides, troopers around here would probably stop me for having blue headlights.

i may pick up a used set and try them to see if they actually look good in blue.

white or silver, or a gloss black would loook SWEET though.
blue and red are just those colors that can get to be "TOO much" sometimes.
but what the hell, i already have everything else PTMed

Great thread though

 

I like the lights AND the painting of the headlights. Not to push a product but I noticed these in one catalog I get. Price is kinda high but the lights seem to be good and adjustable.

They also come with the mgfer's grill, but it's a lot more expensive.

And these for the guys that are afraid of putting ANYTHING in the oven!

this is to robinab. the condensation from putting the light together shouldn't be an issue. whenever you change a headlight bulb you are allowing moisture into the headlight assembly. the only problem that causes condensation in a light is a crack or actual water in the light. i would think that if you seal it up good again there shouldn't be a problem. i'm not just blowin smoke i work in a body shop and deal with lights all the time. i think that you will be ok.

 

bluesupercrew05 you think I could meet up with you and take a look at your headlights?

 

ok..thanks for the encouragement...I guess I'm busy this weekend.

 

ok, this may be a dumb question but if im reading this correctly, your sanding and painting the reflective surface of the inside of the light and in doing so, are you decrease headlight effectiveness at all? I do like the way this looks though and i know they look similar to the harley lights.. so im sure the headlights still work ok.. just wondering.

 

Nope, because they are painting all glossy area EXCEPT the round gloss that is used for bulb reflection. Look at some of the pictures that are posted. Thats the only piece thats not blackened.

 

just bought the stuff to do mine;however, i am painting mine silver to match the truck color. planning on doing it tomorrow if the weather is nice. wish me luck

 

If you could post some pic's when you done. My truck is silver also and would love to see how it looks with silver paint.

 

I just finished one headlight and doing the other as we speak. Ended up painting them red to match the color of my truck. So far its turning out great.

 

I've got mine apart right now. I'll just have to go to church without headlights.

I'm going to pick up some color today and finish them. Any thoughts on what color I should use??? I'm kinda up in the air with that right now.

 

Flip a coin Yours would look good silver or black.

Sorry for the dirty truck but I think it came out ok. Red paint didn't come out as shiny but still works for me.

 

Looks pretty custom! Good work.
