got them in today, don't like the painting instructions the material would be 75.00 if I had to go out and buy them. closes paint shop said 250.00 for them to do it. it seems to take some time to do. What if I used Krylon fusion and painted that silver to match my LJ cant get silver in Krylon paint. on the marker lights that said for me to drill the holes to install them they cut out the hole but not for the screws that hold them in. its going to be hard to get a drill inside the fender, guess I'll use my dremel tool. for the price you would think they could do it as they did all the others. Here is the instructions

Sweet... Did you use the Krylon Fusion that you were talking about?

Had to use a bumper paint . Krylon was not available in silver, made by the same company. that's why we used the plastic adhesive promoter. it really a clear primer for plastic. I think Krylon has that already added so you don't have to spray so much.

They look great! How were they to install? Do they use the same holes the stock ones do? I have been thinking of replacing the Bushwackers I keep breaking, these might just do it. Good work...

Again, I really like em', I just don't know how they'd look on khaki, and whether I'd go Black or body colored.
BTW, I hopw you told that B*tch off over the HC'd thing... That makes me mad...
Anyway, we've got to see some more pic's, atleast I do. And nice X-mas wreath. Nice touch for the holliday touch.
Cheers!
