Finally got some lincoln center caps , it was a pain in the a** to get them to fit . I got a set at the junk yard and had to cut the top off and epoxy them to the other center caps, but they do look alot better than the other ones. Also i added the smoked side makers ,not sure if i like them yet and they too fit like sh*t ,maybe if i clear the corners they will look better .When you guys do that do you just take the amber one out or do them make a clear one that you replace it with . I also blacked out the chrome around the windows,And yea ill be lowering the car soon ,but ive been out of work for a month now because of a hernia surgery so moneys tight right now so im just trying to do some little mods that are cheap... get some pics up tomorrow .

That looks great man. I like the clear markers. Now you need to do the dye method of tinting the amber signal lense. I wouldn't completely remove it, it is too harsh of clear if you do that, Smoking it as dark as Pektal did would look awesome on your ride. I think it would accent your black/silver theme you have going.

Andrizzle,
+1 That's the first time I've seen the lights done like that. I'm going to have to open my lights up again.

I think my other method of painting the chrome bowls black would look better on his car with those bumper lenses do to the turn signal lenses being amber. I want a set for myself but I wanna know how well they fit.
Sancho, can you post a close up of the spots it dont fit correctly?

But yes the JWerner method!

i could tell they werent going to fit just by comparing them to the stock ones , ill try to get some pics tomorrow the end closest to the middle of the car didnt fit in the clip that is inside the bumper i had to file that down ,they go in now but they still dont fit very good.
