Today I was out of parts but I found some led lights marked down at Northern Tools for $20 a piece. I used the factory wiring for the fog lights that I deleted when I cut down the bumper. On to the picks..............

That's pretty cool. How bright do you expect them to be? Some of these LED lights are are astronomical in price. Im wondering how the cheaper ones compare.

Way brighter than the original fog lights but not super bright.I am going to pick up
one more for a work light for the back of my rack.Not bad for $60.

Did you paint the tie rods or did they come red like that? Just curious. I love this thread except it reminds me that my list is similar, and I haven't really started yet, LOL.

After bugging way too many people searching for door panels in top condition I decided to refurbish them. I used 5 coats of flat black plasti dip which worked well but left a very tacky finish that would be a lint magnet.I put a top coat of dupli color vinyl spray and it gave it the perfect finish. Only time will tell how well it holds up. On to the pics.........
