looks black or dark shadow gray...looks great. If it's sark shadow gray on a different color truck, it'd bealot like a newer F150...like the Fx4 ones with their DSG modded headlamps.

I dont like it...i like the idea..but the execution on those corners looks like total dog SHI!. Those damn 'rings' around the lenses need painted blue. them rings stand out wayyy to much imo.

How hot do you bake the headlights and for how long to get them apart? then what kind of paint/ silicone do you use?
