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?

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..
