Looks pretty good. It "works" with the rest of the truck.

how many coats did you put? i need all the details
I did three light coats of nite shades, let them dry for 2-3 hours in between coats. Then i did two coats of clear coat with about 30 min in between each coat. Then i took 1000 grit sand paper and sanded them and then spread some turtle wax rubbing compound on them and let that sit for about a minute then wiped it off. Finally, i took some kinda body wax and rub the **** out of them to make them as glossy as i could haha. Once you get to the sand paper you can do those steps as many times as you want until you get them to look how you want.
