Debating on which one I like. I'm leaning towards the gray with red backing but the black with gray backing looks clean.

Executive decision made. I think they turned out pretty good. 2 1/8" aluminum pop rivets worked pretty well to hold them.

Just received some rigid radiance pods in the mail today. They have the amber back lighting. I'm going to put those on the hood mounts and wire up the running lights to the back lights. Just need to find a spot for the d2s now.

Put them on the other night. Not as bright as a d2 but I knew that. First picture shows the difference.

Put captured nuts on the fabric thing to stop that annoying squeak when I close the doors.... Best thing I've done in awhile

you painting the driveshaft? i'm starting my axle this week. Ive got a wire tip that goes on the end of a drill some rust removing spray for what i can't get, rustoleum rusty metal primer, and rustoleum matte black undercarriage paint. If this turns out good I'll pull the driveshaft and do that also...
