me three. Or paint the bases, since filling that many holes on a black truck will be no fun.

Im going to have my body man fill them in and make it right so if i dont put any back on it will be smooth with no flaws or if i want to i can add them later either way Ill treat it like that chrome trim if i like the way it looks without Its staying off.

Im going to have to go against the grain. This however is assuming that you are keeping your truck in the same "form" as it is now. Keep the old style lights, I think they look really cool on a regular height or lifted truck with kind of a mean look... Thats just me tho.

Yeah i kinda think they look mean at night When i pull up to a store with big glass front and i have all four headlights and the park lights and cab lights on looks neat

Im just going to have him fill in the holes real nice paint it and ill decide later if i decide to try the late models ill set them up there first and look it over
