these

pretty much what i already have only much higher quality. and yes they are glass. only took 6 business days to get here and they are packaged very well. i took out the corners for the pic(they were wrapped in plastic wrap and fit in the boxes nicely) and the lights themselves are in some kind of molded foam.

Image

assuming they fit properly and all i will recommend them highly. the look aint for everybody but if you like the look then these are great. again, assuming they fit :lol:

#335305 Very Nice my friend!! Can't wait for some pics! :thumb:

#337082 teasing update. finished pics very soon

:lol:

Image

I had put factory upper control arms on(you can really tell in some of the pics) for awhile but they really werent a good idea. i figured they would give it a little more room to move but they gave way too much negative camber, started to wear the tires from the toe being off, and allowed the axle to hit.
Image

so i got some new arms
Image

new vs old
Image
Image
huge difference
Image
Image
they fit very nicely! like i said before they arent for everybody but i do recommend them if you like the look

Image
Image
sorry old battery tray/hold down

Image
Image
Image
Image

low vs stock
Image

before paint
Image

sunken doughnut flush son!
