Good, havent finished the passenger side yet. I havent had time to finish it. But theyre both painted and the drivers side has been wet sanded and cleared. I'll have to do the 3rd brake light when it warms up some.


Heres a crappy cell phone pic, and like royce said earlier, the pics look a bit darker than they really are. You can also tell that the left side has been sanded and cleared and the right has not.



EDIT: lol my truck looks dirty..

Weird how all the pics of tinted lights come out looking so dark. I need to get pics of mine, I tinted mine yesterday with the VHT Nightshades.

Looks good man, for sure. I should have just did mine myself, instead I have been waiting 20 some days to get mine in the mail.

Def gets some good pics of them. How nice does the paint flow?? I am going to do my third brake light...

More pics while I was getting gas, still cell phone quality though. And yes that is rain on my truck if you're wondering.

one thing you might wanna do though if you have tinted rear windows also is wire up some backup lights. an wire them through your trailoring brakes so they turn on automatically when u put the truck in reverse. but the brake lights light up fine at night
