I'll be buying a couple of dirtbikes myself, for me and my wife, in a couple of weeks.

 

Where can i find "nightshade"?

 

your best bet is online:

summitracing

gixxer,
Did you tape off the clear areas for the cargo lights, or just tint the entire 3rd brake light? I would like to tint mine, but would like to get the most light out of the cargo lights. I dont know how it will look if I take those areas off.

 

For clear, could you use the clear spray paint they sell at Wal-mart, or should you only use the stuff they have at a paint shop (how much)? This is for a Niteshade application.

 

only use the stuff from a body shop. the can stuff doesnt turn out too well. ive done 2 sets of tails and the one with the can spray looked like crap

 

I bought these in blue. They look awesome in the truck. I get comments on them all the time. The lights are tiny but they are way bright and thats why I got them because you cant see the light unless you crawl up under the dash. The instructions were mediocre but the seller answered my q's in a few minutes. I recommend them to anyone looking for cheap accessories. They were running a sale so I bought 2 sets. here is a link to the ones on sale.

Still a bit too ricey for my taste.

I though of a great cheap mod that looks good....but I forgot it!

 

Just remembered! To get aluminum-colored High Heat spray paint and give a few coats to your stock exhaust system should it be brownish.

 

I took my front and rear ovals off and sprayed them with black Krylon Superbond spray paint. The spray paint is specially made to bond to plastics and many other surfaces.

 

I did the "real" thing



This shorty antenna was under 5 bucks at Oriliey (I also have acetoned emblems)


Other cheap mods,

used 2" shackles
tinting
paint stock grill black

 

Pat where did you get your lower valence? (is it stx or harley or?)
How much if you dont mind me asking?

 

00-03 STX valence, i bought it for 60 shipped off the forums, and cost me 60 to get it painted silver

 

Thanks for the info, I'm planning on doing a 99+ front bumper swap on my truck. I was thinking that being my tow hooks are 3inches lower than stock I could run the tow hooks and the stx valence? We'll just see

 

are the hooks at the top of the frame or bottom? I can measure from frame to bottom of valence if you'd like
