KC Daylighters, No More Smiley Faces

I recently added a trio of KC daylighters to my front rally bar. I love the lights but was not happy with the yellow smiley face covers provided with the lights. I decided to paint them to match the truck and sent them to my vinyl guy with a new idea to display on the covers. I really like what I came up with and they reflect the attitude of the truck overall.

I probably didn't insert the image correctly so you can see the pic in my gallery.

I agree, it's raining and sleeting here and I just ran out, stuck them on and took the pic. We old men shrink in the rain. The smiley faces had to go.
The outside lights are facing out so I get three lanes of illunination. Now I just have to be careful not to turn them on and melt the covers. That's another problem we old men have. When spring comes I'll go with the chrome grill covers. I just wanted to show people that you may want to do something different with the covers. I suppose some of those IH emblems would look good also.

LOL! I'll have exact prices Wednesday.. All the designs are set.. Just waiting on my bud to get back.. He had a funeral to go to

Once I get my KC's in I think I'mma do the same thing.. Paint them Black and put this on each one (4 of them)

Love it. I teach in an elementary school and can't have that written on the front of my truck. Built Ford Tough is a little more politically correct for my circumstances.

kc's

I like the vinyl's, if you would like to see them with the chrome covers check out my pics. I have 4 150watt lights on a randyellis bar. love my lights when someone is in front of you and flips you off for tailgating since they wont move out of the left lane, i just flip them on and they move over.

thanks rattler. I love my kc's but found out some bad info. I have the 150 watt lights and i just found out that they don't make them no more. so i have to switch to the 130 watt. bummer. Also I just changed the original tire's after 97000 miles. Put on Bf goodrich all-terrain 285/75/16. love them.
