Hey Slow, did you just pull the assembly out, disassemble it and paint it with normal black spray paint? was there any other prep to darkening the tail lights?

I cant say it enough man, your truck looks SLICK bud.. awesome job!


And yeah, I been in the oilfield industry long enough to recognize that particular sticker.. and if you wanted to come over to the drilling side, you aint gotta worry about those old spinnin chains anymore.. most Respectable Drilling contractors did away with them several years ago.
