Projector upgrade and new lighting

I have upgraded my lighting all around. I decided to go with a set of LED taillights and LED brake/reverse light bar in the rear. Also purchased a headlight setup originally built by "bilinvic". Also added the JW SPeaker OEM replacement fogs and added the RECON front mirror smoked LED signals.
The headlight specs:
2013 OEM FX Black Headlights
Hella EVOX-R 3" Projectors
Morimoto 5Five D2S Ballasts
Motocontrol Bi-Xenon H13 Wire Harness
Tinted Amber Reflectors
Tinted Turn Signal Lens; dark tint
Inner Bezel Painting; OEM Sterling Grey Metallic (matches the brushed aluminum fornt really nice)
Morimoto XBa 100mm LED Angel Eyes; amber
Osram Xenarc CBI 5k HID Bulbs

Good job!

Sadly - not a fan of the tails - just too 'rice' fer me. Reckon Harley-style with V3's would suit yer truck better, IMHO.

Oh - and some V3 switchbacks in the front siggies.

Very nicely done. One heck of an upgrade. I love the OEM lights these truck comes with, they just look perfect.

I love the front end but yeah, those tails are rice.

How is the running light vs brake light difference? I had some ebay tails and the running lights were crazy bright and when you tapped the brakes, you could barely see the difference.
