late model taillights

Picked up a pair of new taillights off ebay for $38, they are from a '95 model and don't have the amber lenses for the blinker, looks much better..



for comparison

Van looks very good Gman

However why did you make a thread about the taillights but then show us a picture of the side?

Dark Charcoal Grey works pretty good with Black and Blue too......

I'm pretty careful about mixing colors, Charcoal Grey is very close to Black and may indeed work for a stripe..

I agree that the amber delete looks better, especially with the paint and wheels, good job.

the wheels are 17x8 Cragar Soft 8 with 255/60r17 tires, the 60 Series tires are rated for 2100 lbs each, 8400 lbs total capacity..
put a slash cut 3.5" chrome tip on the tailpipe also but it's hard to notice from afar, it turned out beyond my expectations..
