I don't think my painting skills are that good yet I should practice!

CAN

I just clicked as well. I was never sure what I was looking at (your avatar) in the light Group Buy thread. That Sport is one of a kind. I hope you land a new job soon so you can get those lights and then some.

Good stuff fellow Canook!

well monmix there isn't anything stopping ya from doing the same (that and your probably a better body man them me)! zorro is no slouch either! celly, i found out that we are going to be laid off for a week.....but that's what they say. trust me, i am still thinking REAL hard on getting them. all you guys that have them have nothing but good to say about them. that and when i talked to henry over the phone, he was the deal sealer (not one question that i had he could not answer, and fast to, so he knows his product, and well). have the cash for them, just not sure if i should bite the bullet and get them or not that's all.

thanks for all the complements, all of you are making my ego grow! LOL!

Since my truck in a black on white theme on the out side do you think these flames in black would be hot? I have a paint booth he could use and everything. Both of you should fly up this summer for a fishing trip and painting on the side?

danny, i would kill to come up there. one of my high school teachers was from there, and it sounds like a beautiful place, but $$$. need to buy some fancy head lights! LOL! I'm not sure about the black flames, i think blue would look better, not because that's the color i have, but your new lights with the hid's in them will have a blue tint to them, your head liner is blue, it all works know what i mean.

there is no comparison to the old ones at all! the old ones would pencil beam in one spot, and light up the sides alitte. that and i had to aim them down lots so i didn't blind people. NOW from the edge of the hood, to about 15 cars in front of me i can see (maybe even further down the road). when i first put them in, and tried them, i thought they were way to high. i phoned one of my buddy's that i work with to come for a ride. i chased him around town, then down the highway (sometimes on his bumper, other times way ahead of me). and he said you could see that they where on, but had zero glare to them. at one point, he was about 3 or 4 cars ahead of me, turned off his lights, and said he could see the road just fine! LOL! i should have done this a long time ago!!!!
