Dude, my current work and school schedule has me leaving the house from 4am to 830 or 930 pm Mon-Thurs. With work Sunday mornings, I only have 2.5 days to do anything, including household stuff that needs to be done (laundry, mowing, car maintenance, etc.) I plan on getting to them when I have the time.
|
tease.
|
Cannot wait to see what the outcome will be dude.
|
Alright, so my original idea is not going to work...the tails were just too tough to open and save the clear lenses. Now I have another idea going that some people think is actually better.
|
Hell..... yes...... dude!
|
I say sheet metal the tail light openings and go all out frenched in LEDs!
|
Uh, no. I was never a big fan of the '90s.
|
Rock the corvette lights in the bumper? Come on dude..... that shit is straight pimp

Dave, you put Vette lights in the rollpan and I'm going to personally key your truck. ;)
|
Hahaha. I have seen some trucks that full the tail light holes and just rock a taillight bar under the tailgate. That can give a truck a really clean look. But a pair of actually custom tail lights is something you rarely see

So bad ass! You should do 6 exhaust tips though. 6 is definitely faster than 4.
|
Ha! I've never seen a whole vette rear end on a truck lol

Fair enough.
Just to let everyone know what I'm ACTUALLY doing: I originally purchased a full set of led tails with clear lenses (yes, the type that look like they belong on the back of a Civic) with the intention of separating them. I separated them, but the lenses cracked and are now worthless. I also have a second full set of OEM tails that I have separated successfully. My original plan was to paint the OEM buckets to match my headlights and then put the clear lenses on them. Obviously I can't do that now because the clear lenses are trashed. So, my new idea: When I'm done I will have a set of tails that are LED with OEM lenses on them. I'm also tinting the OEM lenses on the inside so that they will maintain a stock glossy finish (without the hassle of having to clear, wetsand, buff, etc) and therefore cannot be scratched or start to wear due to weather conditions. I'm also going to add one other custom detail that will have to be a surprise, assuming I like it enough to keep it. |
I like that idea alot. Too bad your original plan didn't turn out, I really wanted to see the finished product but I can't wait to see the new plan when it's done!
|
Here are the OEM lenses laying on top of the LED buckets. They match up great! Now I just have to tint the lenses and install the other stuff.

Hmmm.... I'm still curious as to "the other stuff"... I have an idea but I feel it's pretty unlikely lol
|
It's going to be awesome!

You're doing an octagonal exhaust setup right? One pipe from each cylinder? Haha
|
That's going to look pretty damn cool!
|
HID Reverse lights?? lol
|
I've had those for over a year now.
|
Oh really? Well then never mind!
|
Alright, the cat is coming out of the bag because I need help. Some people like this and some don't, for various reasons.
Build specs: EBay LED tails OEM lenses lightly tinted internally The original LED bank will be used for brakes and signals only. The strips will be the running lights these are the two configurations that are available based on the available strip lengths and space. Thoughts? http://i269.photobucket.com/albums/j...psc5bebbed.jpg http://i269.photobucket.com/albums/j...psd796e47e.jpg http://i269.photobucket.com/albums/j...psd4473b4f.jpg http://i269.photobucket.com/albums/j...pse14afe76.jpg Keep in mind these were not completely stuck and the final setup will be straight and not wavy. |
Works for me. Very Unique looking which I respect...although I'll miss the strobes and disco balls... :)
|
ok.......
Looking further back, and with the tint....... The reverse C looks spiffy. ;) |
I'll try to find a disco ball just for you Al.
|
The C looks pretty sweet. Not really feeling the L...
|
