The area around the square is painted, if you look closely it's wet too just doesn't have that concrete look

Thanks. I think the only things left that I am gonna do visually is some tint and '87-'91 tail's with LED's all around. I also have a lead on some diffused clear front turn signals that I might pick-up if I can.

That's cool.
Ya pre 91 tails look awesome and work much better. I remember the 93 tail lights weren't as good as my 88 reverse lights stock for stock.

87-early 89 tail lights have wrap around reverse lights where as late 89-96 tail lights don't.
If you look at evan's 92 you will see what I am talking about. Here is my 88 F150s tail lights.

Ya because instead of the light just shining straight out the back it shines towards the left and right plus out the back. If I had the 91 running I would show you but neither my 88 nor the 91 run and when I did have my 88 running one of my reverse lights were out.

I believe Brad did the upgrade on his trucks also.

I think I'll make that switch. I need new tails anyway.
