Took a year to build mostly cuz life got in the way but think it turned out for the best. Just installed it this last weekend after I got it back from getting powder coated. Will have to get some shots of it when it dark with the light on!

Thanks guys! It holds up extremely well on wheels. Had it on my Focus for over a year and not a single issue. Thats with snow, ice, rain and over 100 temps.

Thanks for the compliments. Pics dont do the color justice. Now to let it cure and get some Turtle Wax Ice spray wax on them. This stuff is supposed to protect plastidip just like it does paint. If it really grows on me, I will have my dad spray some PPG automotive clear on them.
