The paint is now PERFECT!

Birdman's vehicle looks more gloss black than Tuxedo Black, but I think he had better lighting ;)

Wash/Clay/Wash/Polish/Wax/Wax... inside was detailed too. $125 for a complete detail job like this (hand and orbital polish). Maybe that sounds too much for you, but the guy worked on my car for about 5 hours.... $25 an hour? Yeah, its worth it to me!

Once the truck was clayed and polished, the metallic gold flake in the paint REALLY comes out.... I washed/waxed it myself before, but the clay/polish really brings it to life.

I think I might use this for my avatar if I can get it shrunk small enough:

When you look dead on, from the front, at a Black Raptor, there is nothing more menacing then that beast steering you down.. The way the black pushes out past the lights, the fenders, grill blending together, sweet! The other colors take away from that aggressive look.. Sorry guys I know i will get crap for this but there is nothing meaner than a Black Raptor.:peace:

Even Birds street queen looks aggressive!

youmudputter,

Tell me more about those lights you have!



That's exactly what I want... I don't want a huge fender add on from side to side, just s short bar like that for the 4 round head lights.


BTW, as long as those lights are pointed down at the road... are they legal to use while driving on a public road? I want them for when we go camping on the property, but have always been curious if the're legal on the road.

Duc, I think Pudder has that bar slid into his front reciever. As far as legality, some states make you cover the lights when on the road but not here.

Additionally, I believe, if not covered, aux. driving lights have to be wired so they go off when low beams are on.

Shit, I know just enough to be dangerous.

Hey man best to check my recent threads. I added a front receiver for a portable warn winch and then had an idea to build a light bar. I bought a receiver step and added 4 lights. Complete light bar is 130 bucks. receiver about 250. Winch 800.
