A freakin' LOT! :crazy:

I apologize, forum presence has been quite rare lately.......just hard to be on a lot and try to keep up with builds, emails, phone calls, texts, FB, IG.....and family. Oh.....and this lovely thing - :sleepy10:

Anyway......so, things have been quite busy around here! So much, that back in April I hired my painter full time. Dave has been doing ALL the paint work for us since April 2011, as an independent contractor. In 4 years, he did over 1000 jobs for us, and I was keeping him WAY busy (as he had a full time job working at an automotive paint store locally).......kept seeing the bottleneck in our work residing with paint.......so.....well......time to fix that! Hired him full time and really dove into getting him up to speed on things. What fun........trying to get someone to understand what I've learned in 5+ years of doing this......well - just not going to happen overnight. ;) Dave also handles all of our shipping, in the month of December we shipped out over 300 packages (full builds, HID kits, projector / tail adapters, etc) to not only the US and Canada, but also to Mexico, Finland, Germany, Austria and the Netherlands.

In the past 8 months, we have been able to really refine a few processes, and streamline a few things - which has resulted in a "standard" backlog of about 4-8 weeks.....down to an incredibly steady flow of 7-10 days (at the most) on 95% of our jobs lately. :favorites13: There are quite a few that we can knock out in 2-3 days! We stock new lights for our most popular builds as well.

Enough chat! How about some pics of the goodies!

Amazing work as always Jeremy! :waytogo: Love seeing all the builds pop up on my Instagram and Facebook as you're pumping them out. Makes me want to send my headlights back to you even more for more work and then build 5 more trucks just to have all the different colour schemes of headlights on them!

Looks awesome, but if it was TRULY RETROshop, wouldn't you carry stuff for Gen.1 trucks? :naughty:

JJ: Always with the lighting ****--always!

Glad things are going well for you. I drool over your lights often, just have other bills to pay.

Keep posting the pictures, my resistance will probably wear out before my Ram.

I have a warped view on "swamped" now.......for years I was always weeks and weeks out.....it became the norm. I'm 7-10 days out normally now.....and doing 2x the work that I used to, but, I have another set of hands ;) I call it "steady", and I chuckle when a customer calls and asks about an ETA on a nice build......."end of the week!" and the response is "holy ****, thats fast!" Yeah......I don't need 'em here, lets get 'em rollin! :naughty:

That's awesome news, JJ.

I will try! ;)

I love the look of the neon colored headlamps. But all the ones I have seen are always on. I have a hard enough time not getting speeding tickets. Can you turn yours on and off with a switch in the cab?

They would all utilize a remote - so you can turn them to white when driving.

I have a 13 1500 crew cab. I want to add the neon lighting with the blacked out or smoked look all the way around. I thought it was as simple as getting a light kit. After reading these posts, I am beginning to think there is more to it.

lights need to be opened to add halos, accents, etc. not just a quick drop in type bulb, unfortunately.
