New Shiners

So I sent my headlights to the guys over at Gold Standard Lighting and after some thought and ideas between me and him we came up with this. Paint the entire headlight and both buckets white to match the truck and then paint the projector shroud tan to match and same with the reflector but in the reflector they somehow were able to put the king ranch w in the reflector and the light just looks sick shining through there. Overall I'm very happy with the finish product. The craftsmanship seems to be outstanding but only time will tell with that and the paint work is fantastic. My project is something they probley consider basic compared to other stuff they do. There website doesn't really present them well but if you have an instagram Id highly recommend checking out there page. I can also post pictures of some of there other work on our trucks if anyone would like.

Looks awesome? How long were you without lights? How much did they set you back?

The original time frame was 7-10 business days but with some shipping delays and other mishaps it took about 2 and a half weeks. The headlights were 875 before tax. I also had to get led blinkers and fog lights from diode dynamics which added an extra 200. Would also highly recommend Diode dynamics for there fast shipping, great products, and even better customer service.

$pendy mod but great results. How much more $ was it to have the head light itself replaced with the projector style? This allows the reflector cavity to be painted and really changes the look.
I plan to do mine at some point..

New Headlights

They look amazing! I love them, the King Ranch symbol is a really nice touch! Very jealous, I am not a fan of the enormous chrome housings. Some day mine will be red on the inside

for example this setup has the factory headlamp and needs the reflector cavity to stay shiny to work properly, aka the bottom cavity can't be painted. Your setup has it replaced with what I believe is called a 'projector' style light that doesn't use the reflector hence it can be painted.
