Sounds sweet, how many miles have you got on her?

A couple recent pictures. Excuse the jacked up lip from being too low, the headlight haze, and the overall dirtiness. I'll get some better pictures of the wheels soon, they're pearl black.

Rcrootbeer, easy and cheap way to clean that haze off is Brasso metal polish! Costs like 3 bucks a bottle from Wal-Mart (found in the household cleaners section). Apply a liberal amount to the headlight and spread around with any clean rag. Let it sit for a few minutes and then wipe it off (requires a bit of effort) but they come out gleaming!

Well, yes sometimes. But I usually get stuck halfway and get high centered so I don't try anymore.

I'll give that Brasso a shot next time, I usually just use my rotary buffer every 6 months or so but I'll mix it up.

Yeah it works wonders and its super easy compared to a buffer lol. Might I ask how you tinted the side markers? Regular tint paper or was it a slap on kit? I love the look of them!

I used black Plastic-dip found in most any hardware store and even hobby lobby and walmart. It's in a spray can just like spray paint. The more coats, the darker the tint over them.

You used plasti-dip on your side markers? Doesn't that completely cover the light?

Might wanna try VHT niteshade instead. My 2nd set of markers (original set) is blacked out but you can still see thru it.

It surprisingly doesn't block out the light, and in fact it works very similar to VHT Niteshade. And of course, it peels off willingly.
