04 RCSB Silverado Slow Build

Gonna see how much sand blasting would be other wise Ill just look for a paintable one, saw one on rock auto for about 330 with shipping to me. Since apparently going to my local play ground and throwing it into the sandbox wont blast the chrome off.

Only rule there is against posting pictures, is that if it's NSFW it must go in NSFW thread

Those however are sexy, so I might have to ban you :crazy: definitely pull the trigger!
 
With stock housings, go 35w hids. The housings have no real pattern and will just create a ton of glare, blinding the shit out of every other driver.

And yus smear some silicone along the edges for some insurance
 
Oh I know to silicone them before I put them in, and I had 55w in my other truck and never really got flashed. Everyone around here either doesnt know how to drive or drives like an asshole haha
 
Lil update, cleared lights and 55w 4500k hids ordered, i got some silver star ultras for my high beams those are in, wood is cut for the new sub box just need time to work on it more. But now my tailgate doesnt open. I can pull the handle but it won't fold down. Which is weird because yesterday it worked fine. Will have to look into that soon. The hunt for someone who knows how to retrofit in my area has also begun

So that is a valid reason to blind them?

55w low beams in a halogen housing is just plain ignorant.
 
Oops haha. Its only for a lil while and i do adjust them down a bit. A retro fit is a must i know. The hunt for someone who knows how in my area is on. Dont worry i wont be the total dick. Work in progress haha
 
Phil (fastheadlights) is a cool dude.
I was going to send my lights to him for retrofit but couldn't be down too long. He offered a set of lights for me to use in the mean time, also a great price.
In the end he got real busy, so instead of doing the retro, he walked me through it and gave me a lot of help.
+1 would use him for a retro no doubt
 
I beleive there is another RCSB owner in your area with a turbo awd all black and lowered on intro twisted vistas. Not sure if he is a user on here yet or not, but his username is black04 on pt. He's stuck on some small island right now becoming a doctor or something though. But I'm sure he must know about all your local truck stuff.

Is that the truck with the exhaust through the fender? If it is, that's a naaaasty truck for sure.
