Currently awaiting the arrival of my Mopar steering wheel badge (Courtesy Rebadgedesigns, a set of dual headlights with black housings and clear signal lenses, and some LED bulbs to replace interior lighting. I'll post some pics up when I get a chance.

I will try to post some pics later today. Got my new headlights with the black housings and clear signals installed. Absolutely love the new look. Also installed some cool white LED's in the rear dome and front reading lights. Now I am just waiting on my steering wheel badge from rebadgedesigns, that should be here later today as well.

Well I got ambitious this morning. Decided to plasti-dip my grille. Might try one of the "enhancers" to see how that would look if Carquest in my area carries the enhancers. I also got my black headlights installed with Silverstar Ultras, adjusted the headlights up, installed my new Mopar steering wheel badge (rebadgedesigns, thank you Nathan) and put new cool white LED's in the interior. Past couple of days have been busy. Now for the pics!

Just waiting on some LED turn signal bulbs, and I think I might plasti-dip and gloss my interior trim to see how that looks.

Yeah they are the ebay ones. I was actually extremely impressed with the quality. Exact same fitment and everything as stock, and the quality overall just seems great. I was skeptical at first because I've seen the work you do and I know it's good but I was mightily impressed when I got these. They took very good care in shipping and packaging them. DOTCOMRACING is the store that sells them, they have very good feedback.

Thanks! Very impressed with Rebadgedesign and Nathan's work. Removing the stock steering wheel badge, was not fun at all.

Cool! What brand are they? Depo?

I am always looking at cheaper ways to get customers a custom setup. These can definitely help (and keep time down if we don't have to paint!)

(dont' tell my painter I said that either............lol)

should be on the box. ;)

I'm a stuck up snob on lights............Depos open nicely, but on the sets I've used I wasn't overly enthused with how thin the plastics were. But, 99% of people wouldn't even notice it, but when the light is f'n hot and you are ripping it apart, its easy to notice. LOL

Yeah I think they are depos. The box doesn't say but I was looking at the picture on Ebay and I can see DEPO on the back of the housing. Holding them I didn't think they were any lighter than my stock lights. I'm sure they are thinner in some areas but aesthetically speaking they look good so I am happy with them!
