That is a similar look to what I am wanting, but with slightly different rims and precision grill. Looks great.
Im guessing you baked the lights to get them apart?

Thanks for all the complements. I baked them for about 20-30 min on 300 degrees. I painted everything on the inside in believe it or not flat black barbeque grill paint. Did everything myself except for installing them, my friend's shop did that. The headlight beam is actually more focused and I think it is better than before. Headlights are TYC got them on Ebay for $87 each.

Good show, then you can always switch back to stock if the need be!

No more stock headlights for me I am probably going to take the stock ones apart also and have my body shop guy paint the chrome part the factory black for a back up set. I am also going to add some more black to the wheels.

does the turn signal have a had time reflecting or look dim? how had is it to sepeate the light. was thinkin bout doing something similar but with a gloss black but i thought it might be a waste of time cuz i'm going to get the protective smoke headlight tint.
Looks really good though nice lookin ride.
