Smile Bores Light Bumper Guides

Today I installed my C-Betr Mirrors and decided to take some pics of the bumper guides I installed last week. Didn't get around to till 4pm, short days around here now. Another pic in my gallery.

Those bumper guides are just sweet. I love how extra lights look on a truck. Now you need some running board lights, some lights for between the bumper and tailgate...

Kinda like this: http://www.runninglites.com/rear/r_red_nar_5lite.html.

If you look at the page on that sight about side running lights, they have these amber strips with teardrop ends... they'd look sweet mounted on that spot on the running boards between the truck and where you step. Mmmm....

Didn't mean it in a bad way............Just gave my opinion. Sorry I have offended you, but to me they are what I called them, "rookie sticks". And yes I still drive those big rigs. I own my own as a matter of fact. I wouldn't want them on there either. No hard feelings just my take on the whole thing. Big trucks are big trucks, pickups are pickups and when people try to think/make a pickup a Class 8 truck it seems kind of funny to me.

I don't think they look bad on there. Not really my style, but hey, to each their own, as is said. One question though: I'm sure they were easy to mount in that position, but to be useful, shouldn't they be in Front of the bumper??

They were mounted per manufacturers instruction...since I believe they sell them to pickup owners for looks not true functionality. I bought mine for the appearance, if I needed them to navagate that would be kind of sad Many people do many different things to thier vehicles, to each thier own. If I don't have something positive to add to the post...I don't post.

Sorry if I took your comment wrong, but due to the wording and shortness of it...it came accross as a dig to me. I try to use the smileys to help the reader know when I am sarcastic etc. Also, due to the actions on the last site I used to visit for a different vehicle...each post turned into a slamfest and I thought here we go again. Being new to this site I took it wrong. Sorry for miss reading, Thanks for input.

No harm no foul. It is a sharp truck regardless of what you ad to it.
