I replaced my License Plate bulbs with DD LEDs. They're so bright that just about my whole tail gate was lit up...So, I put some Laminix Red on the lens but left enough clear to just shine white on the PL8 and soft red on the rest of the tailgate. The bubbles will disappear in a day or two.
Now if I didn't have HUSKERS as my PL8 I'd just use Black tape to block all the intense light from shining on the TG.

Pardon my ignorance. How did you go about reversing the crash bars? Is that going to affect any potential impact heaven forbid? Its an interesting concept in order to get larger tires in there with out trimming. Let us know please!

I switched sides with the bars. The driver side went to the pass side. To get the crash bars out you need to remove the bumper. The bolts ... (I may have Made it more difficult in cutting the bolts). Before I loosened the bolts I cut the bottom tips off just below the welded nuts. Then I loosened the bolts all the way loose. Then I slid the bolt up as high as possible to cut the shaft of the bolt. Now with the front bumper off I could slide the crash bars out. Next I cut the welded nut for the two bolts off the frame. I put the driver side crash at into the frame on the passenger side. I put bolts that I had picked up at Home Depot in from the bottom and nuts w/lock washers on top. A little paint on the frame and your done. Well after you put the bumper back on.
P.s. I also added 1/8" body washers to the bumper mounts which brought my bumper out. This will help in the future with big tires.
I had to pull the bumper for the vinyl wrap. So while it was off I took care off the crash bars and bumper spacing.
