Delete Delete! Amber Headlight reflectors and pillars

dbcooper748 · August 13, 2016

I looked into the "clear" reflectors, but they looked too frosty for me. Is it legal? No. Does it look good? I think so. Have I ever had an issue? No.

All that said, hids inn halogen housings are illegal, and so are lifts over certain heights. I'll take my chances, but by all means, if this is a concern, then buy the frosty lenses. They still look better than amber imo

Oh and btw, I ended up going with a piano black pillar cover now instead if the plastidip. The dip was good to give me an idea if I liked it or not, and these covers are wayyyy glossier. The vinyl I considered was more expensive to have done and not as glossy.

i originally had the piano black pillar covers but i didnt like how they protruded, i wanted more a flush look so i used gloss black vinyl. think i paid less than $10 for the roll.

Not sure how thick urs were but mine are only 1/32" which is less than 1 mm

Where did you get the piano black pillar covers/ what brand are they? I like how they turned out super clean.

I'm curious too where you go the covers. Looks great.

Looks great. It's amazing what just removing the amber does for the looks of these trucks.

Looks so much better. I ordered my klearz yesterday. What bulb did you go with for the turns? I don't really want switchbacks, so I'm looking at either Amber bulbs or Amber LED's. Just sucks having to wire in resistors that get hot as hell.

When I swapped mine out, I just got 4x7443 chrome flash amber regular halogen signal bulbs from eBay. I think the brand name was GP Thunder.

Hey db cooper. Amazing job on the lights they look sooo good! I was about to order the clear lenses from klearz when I saw your post. How was taking the amber lense out. Any pointers you could give me??

That is a great looking truck! I was on the fence about doing 22's but you've made my decision easy! I like all the chrome on yours, but I have a silver '16 Z71 with hardly any chrome at all, so I'm thinking black wheels might be for me!
