I considered having mine painted, but that defeated the purpose of retrofitting the black version. Honestly, I like them better this way.

Just curious. Did you think about painting the outer parts of your lights green and the shroud beige instead? I'm planning on doing something similar to that when I do mine but I think I'm gonna do more red and less beige on mine.

Yeah those look good on your truck black. I don't know if I wanna paint mine to match now. The black flows with the black billet grill so good but the ptm red should look good too and it would be different.

Yes sir I did, I photoshopped many different color schemes. I even bought another set or corner lights to test paint to see what I liked better. The tan just gave it more of a contrast and broke everything up more.

I know, I went over to the "dark side". I'm sorry. That one day you made a post about someone doing the conversion and said that, I had the bumper in the bed of the truck coming home lol.

Ahhhhh. Now I can't decide again. I have the same 2 tone color as you but my body color is a dark red color and now I'm stuck between ptm red beige or just leaving them black lol. The beige does look better on your truck though.
