I like the clear parking lights that match the headlights. I don't like that diamond crystal or whatever they call it on ebay.

I haven't seen too many trucks with lights like yours. I think F350baby has them too. They look pretty cool. I have never seen them in person.

That's not bad for a "little" 302! You should let me take it for a spin. I'll clear the carbon for ya.
When you say fogged to mean mean like the OEM headlights? Thats what I like too.

Personally I think it depends on the truck.

I think the Lightnings and and trucks like Lew's look better with the color coded bumpers and clear etc lights.

I think on my truck the clear parking lights look perfect with the black/silver/chrome on the truck.

Hey Ty, you're truck looks way too dadgum good. Your headlights look great too. What is that clip thing right above your bumper? I have that too. What is the purpose of that?

Ty, yes, I mean LIKE the OE headlights, but they look a little different. I don't mind clear headlights; IT'S THOSE CLEAR TAIL LIGHTS with the red bulbs that look hideious. All the Chevrolet guys and all the ricer cars have them.

Hey Bill, Thanks for the compliments. I have no idea what that clip/tab is for. Your talking about the one in the center between the bumper and grille right? Maybe someone else knows what it does.

I agree I don't like the euro/altezza crap either.

Yes Ty that's the clip I'm talking about. Maybe it's for the robots / people to hold onto while screwing something in place kind of like a gasket, you know?

Oh, and if you look at your userpic, it looks like your truck is balancing on your shadow.
those were my thoughts too, i just wanted to lift it enough so that i can clear bigger rubber with minimal or no fender trimming. Ive got 31.5 Inch michelin AT's on there now, theyre pretty good tires, ive put about 40,000 miles on them and they have a lot of life left. I plan on upgrading to 35 inchers but im still shopping around for what kind exactly. That horrible search for an aggressive mud tire that still gets good wear on the highway...hahaha

hahahaha! i never noticed that before! thats really funny!!
Thanks for the kind words man!
