Looks good, you should get those windows tinted to clean up the look as well!

I really want to but the cops are real sticklers here in Iowa when it comes to front window tint. I'd prefer not to make it easy for them.

sharp truck man! Just a word of advice on the recon 3rd brake light, keep an eye on it cause they are over priced junk in my opinoin and about everyone else i know that has owned one. They actually start to seperate and let all sorts of water flow in and before you notice it its to late.

I've had mine in for about a month without any problems and my dad has had one on his super duty for a year now without any problems so I think we have lucked out. I've bought a lot of stuff from recon and have never had any problems with them so I hope the streak continues.

Hope it does work out man, i had 2 of them on my past trucks that i had issues with, the housing split away from the actual seal.
But heck ya man truck looks great keep it up!

Put on the front overlay. Doesn't look too bad.

I think you need 80 percent of light to pass through. It's almost not worth it at that point

Same deal here. No point in making it easier for them to ticket you.
