If your gunna retrofit then paint everything one color IMO. I forget who's retrofits it was but they posted a picture on here of their truck head on and it made his truck look like it had wierd bug eyes (the projectors). The all matte black looks sick cause it all just blends together and looks super stealth.

I figured that it might look something like that. I wish I could throw white accents in the lights without making it look too off, but I feel like that won't happen.

I think it depends on the setup. Heres what mine will look like Fuugz. Ill also have a fake lens in the turn signal bucket like the op's all blacked out set.

How are you doing your turn signals? I want to put a fake lens there as well, but don't know how to go about mounting it. And as for color, I will wait till you are done with yours!

I had a shallow ring mocked up through bigboy and bought a clear lens from TRS.

Sweet! Gonna have to look into that! Also on a side note, if I end up getting stationed in Texas, we are going to have to see how my BDS sits next to your Rancho

Sounds good man, just hit me up. Hopefully I'll have my 2" level and AAL on by then.

Anyone doing a retro fit soon or know the measurement to do a halo across the headlight reflector bowl or the blinker reflector bowl. Any help appreciated

Think I should do ptm lights with a black shroud instead of all black
