The Conversation Pit
This is where EVERYTHING else goes. No subject is too mundane. How's the weather in your area? Did your kid cut his first tooth? Really, what do you think about the President? And don't get me started on Cummins and Duramaxes. Have at it!

thanx, i put them in the oven and separated them. the ones on the tailgate are the before shot. i would have gone darker but was worried about light output. that is plain old krylon gloss black in there. i kinda f'ed up the holes where the bulbs go in..left them in the oven a little too long oh well, nothing a little bit of silicone can't fix.

Nice work on the headlights Northern! I'd consider Stealth bulbs in your parking light housings too. (I don't have stock in the company - honest! I just don't like the amber look on the front of our trucks).

I've really thought long and hard about painting the inside of my heads black. I finally came to the conclusion that with my color truck and the King Ranch trim, I liked the silver better. But, I think black is the way to go on a white or black truck - no question at all!

I painted my head lights as well.Pretty easy to do and the actual hd ones cost way too much.I did buy the actual HD tail lights though because my trash can jumped out in front of me when I was backing out of the drive way and it cracked the whole tail light.Here is a pic of my powerstroke .Its only got 2inch pro comp leaf springs in the front and 33's on 16x10 welds but it will have a lot more done including lifting by summer.
