The stuff i got for free sells for well over 300 all day long and i think it looks better than the usdm stuff.

I know haha. I wasn't really taking defense. I think it looks pretty sweet and it will look way better with the 4 fog bumper. I just need to get those headlights crystal clear again.

Are those lenses plastic? Is the smoking a paint? What I've found to work great to remove paint without f-ing the plastic is Castrol Super Clean degreaser (walmart). Soak it in that for 3-4 hours and it'll just wipe off with a damp cloth. Never tried it on clear plastic, though. Beats scraping/sanding by a long shot!

Someone painted this plug cover on my brother's first swap. ...after 4 hours in the clean.

The lenses are plastic. He painted the chrome part though, the actual housing. Someone told me to take the housings to ralph and he can put the chrome vinyl in there.

Some random dude in a really clean WRX gave me the thumbs up today. That's about it.

Looks like a awesome prerunner race truck. All you need is some fiberglass bed sides and wide front fenders.
