3 sets of lights in the shop today (primer is setting, so I came upstairs to surf for a few!)

Set 1 - Paint to match 4th Gen quads. PXR, aka - brilliant black. I have been wanting to do a set of these since I did Jay's lights - I want to see the "pop" of the flake in this color.

Set 2 - Another set of 4th gen quads, deep water blue / satin black. Projectors are going into this set as well. Buyer picked up a set of aftermarket OEM looking lights for this job, I must say - the quality is not bad at all (and they open in half the time, gotta love that!). The only differences I have seen is how the wiring is done to split the lights. Same end result though. Oh......and the rubbing alcohol to get "black chrome" doesn't work on these.

Set 3 - Panda / Storm trooper, for a 06-08 Ram. White bezel, satin black shrouds, bowls and reflector. This set will also get a set of AAC LED halos. (my first that I've ever installed - minus fixing Dan's the other day).

Well, time to run back downstairs! :D LOTS of pics to come later tonight.
