Looking good as always. I'm extremely jealous of the hood mounted lights, I haven't been able to pull the trigger on $120 for mounts.

Thanks! Page 22 and 23 of my build thread. I made a cardboard template of the brackets then modeled them on the computer. Honestly you could just trace them on sheet metal and cut them that way. They're extremely easy to make. I think I have a total of $15 in them. I used 11 gauge/ .12" thick metal for mine.

Put the lexerd screen protector on tonight. It's a little spendy for what it is but it looks nice.

Since everyone is going crazy over the new F150 and raptor I figured I'd show off my own "raptor"

Finally painted the tail lights. First one took about 45 mins, the second about 2 and a half hours....It was a bugger. I couldn't get paint in the straight side but with a little work from a pick and a paint brush I got it. They aren't perfect but they look pretty nice.
