Nice. I did the same but went a bit dimmer on the license plate lights. Did you do the reverse lights too?

Added a Hemi from the charger/challenger to the grill. Went with a black one and picked up a white overlay for it.

I may swap to dimmer ones if I can find. Ram people say these are the ones that don’t flicker and don’t throw a bulb out code, so I just went with them.

And yes, reverse lights, fogs and interior lighting will be done as well. Just didn’t have a chance yet !

Let me know if you want to pull the trigger. I can do better than their pricing.

I saw a few folks with those on the ram forum. Love the light output but i dont like how its just a big plastic chunk with a lense.

Im gunna throw the LEDs in the stock fog housings today and see what kinda terror it causes. I think a fog retro may be added to the list.

I don't like the plastic void either but I know you get creative when it comes to blank canvases.

I think they look slick and oem.

Does rigid make a bracket? Their dot fogs are awesome, got them on the jeep.

LS1ow 06-06-2018 03:42 PM

LED bulbs in factory fog housings. Bright, but bright chaos.

Ordered some Luxe Auto tint film for the rear lights of the truck. Was surprised by a nice flyer with BLS car on it as well!

This film is awesome. So easy to work with and a TON of light comes threw. And the glossy finish is very nice.

Also did the 3rd brakelight at the top.

Very Very easy. If you've ever messed with any kinda wrap its a breeze, and its even super easy if you haven't.

Ill never use spray tint again.

Blackbirdws6 06-11-2018 12:36 PM

Very nice. I have been debating this for my truck.

The_Bishop 06-12-2018 10:27 AM

Hit the factory tips with some satin black... then decided to order an exhaust.
