Looks great, but are they still fully functional ??

There's nothing worse than nearly rear-ending someone who has mod'd their brake lights (blacked out / patterened mask) until they look like 2-3 little LEDs from 50-100ft behind.

So, how do they look when lit-up ??

doc, they look awesome. im not being a smart ***. but i honestly hope you never get rear ended. i personally know 2 people with 3 occasions of getting rear ended because of the black outs. one was in an all black charger on 24's...

anyone reading this check these out.

they arent made for our truck yet. but im assuming they will be coming out soon. you get a similiar look to a black out with awesome led lights. and imho they arent as "ricey" looking as some others.

you have chrome rims, bumpers, mirrors, and grill. you should go get chrome rocker panels. You might want to look into getting some that cover most the panel.

I have seen some for the 09s and they are very dumb. goes from like 8 inches to 4 inches then back to 8 inches i just dont like them. But some would look bad A on your truck

haven't thought about those nathan! ...ill give them a look over. I have been looking at getting stainless steel bed rails... i say about 3 weeks and ill have the putcos on there...

questions:

1. they are not covers but painted and sanded reg tail lights lenses.

2. i hope i never get rear ended either.. but if you are following close you should be able to see the lit up lenses easy.. if your far away then just pay attention to the big black truck in front of you... either way.. i have full coverage lol

3.

3. bigred.. yes my camera is top notch.. kinda lol

specs: Canon 40d, lens canon 18-125mm... sometimes i shoot 50mm 1.8 in bright conditions... i have so much tied into my camera and studio set up that i could get a set of spare 26s and have change left over..



but its worth it when i get pics of my lil girl like this...


well i dont know anything about camera's but i could tell from the quality you were shooting with something nice...

As far as the pics of your girl, my wife and i think shes adorable, good pics
