When I look at something like this, how much money and how many hours am i looking at?

Had 20% all around on my last F150 and my last Mustang. Never got pulled over but I wouldn't do it again. Hard to see at night especially during bad weather.

But it looks gorgeous!

Thanks!!

You can see at night but definitely need to pay more attention. If your vision isn't up to par I'd say go lighter.

Yea I got all my lift components, just need to get my truck ceramic coated and clear bra'd before she goes under the knife.

Head lights were done by Retro Customz in, FL. Tails were done by a local bodyshop.

Do all the work yourself? just wondering on if you took all the chrome off or just scuff'd.. also did you do your lights? I love the look but seen too many "homemade" jobs hold water, I'm scared to mess it up hahaha
