hellas behind grill and painted headlights!

just wanted to show my latest additions.
1. new T-rex upper and lower billet grill
2. painted headlights black
and 3. hella 500's behind the grill.
now i just got to wire up the lights.


and the touch switch i put in, i know i kind of messed up the trim piece around the switch but i may just paint it to cover it up.

truck looks good. i just put the same hella lights behind my grille a while back and the wiring is simple, you should have no problems.

thanks for the compliments. i mounted them pretty similar to the way hoss66 did but i used two Z shaped pieces of 1/8th to hold up the "light bar" i guess it would be called behind the grill. i am also converting them to hid along with my head's and fog's.

I love having mine behind the grille as well. If I said anything about yours I would say that I think they would look better if they were down slightly so they are in line with your headlights or centered up and down within the grille, Just my .02

Those westin bull bars and any other bull bar for that matter look so much better to me on a truck with a body lift. I think that on a non bod lift truck the top of the bar goes too high up blocking a bit of the grill and it doesn't look right. But thats just me. Looks good man. Really love the 38s
