Very nice. You should expalin how you did all this in a how-to. The new reverse lights look well finished. Bet they are bright?

Tail-Lights
 
Hi again,

If I see a few people here are ready to try it I'll be happy to try and explain how I did it. The first one was a little tough, but the second one went In real easy. The back-up lights are 12 led with a black frame on them... and yes they are really bright, even in the daytime you can appreciate them.... Oh and the "Turbo" letters which cost me about 10.00 are a big conversation piece! I get stopped all the time... Maybe a real turbo for me next???LOL

Thanks Anthony:bow:

Tail-lights and a new lower grill
 
Hey everybody, so far so good everyone thinks the tail-lights came great! I just fabricated a lower grill from a stock Chevy grill.. Take a peek...http://community.webshots.com/user/amsdiecast

Let me know what you think about this grilll.. Anthony :bow:

You asked...It's hard to see how well it fits in the pictrures. The idea is good but the second bowtie does not work for me. If you could do to the lower grill what Sindy has done to Casper's white grill, that would IMHO look much better, assuming again the fit it good.

:thumb: :thumb: for the effort. It's nice when people have the guts to actually try something and show it to the rest of us.

Thanks for sharing.

I like the tail lights. How expensive and we need a how-to :thumb: Do you have them both set for brake and turn signal?

Tail-Lights & Grill...
 
Hey everyone,

I agree with you on the bow-tie, but maybe in the future I'll try and get rid of the bow-tie.... As far as the tail-lights they operate the same as the original lights ( 2 tail, 2 brake )

Thanks everyone for all your input, In general most like the grill and the lights... I didn't think that everyone would like everything!!! LOL But Its good to get peoples opinions on things.. Sometimes you don't see as clearly as someone else does...

Thanks again Anthony:bow:

Good luck on the lower. I tried to do one with a OEM grill but couldn't get it to fit well in the opening.

Great work on the tail lights!
