New Chrome Tail Light Covers Installed..
Hey Fellas,
Just added the last bit of Chrome to my truck that I've wanted to add since I've had my truck. This is it, no more addons, now over the next year or two it will be things like Intake and Exhaust.  Let me know what you think, of the Covers...

Re: New Chrome Tail Light Covers Installed..
Those are nice. Are they actual metal or chromed plastic?

Re: New Chrome Tail Light Covers Installed..
From these guys. http://www.cap-it.com/
They are a local Company of a larger franchise. The name of the store is the Truck Outfitters. Very fittingly... . Yah way to easy to spend bucks in their store.I was kinda disappointed that they weren't Chrome metal but, at the same time I knew they would be more expensive if they were. They appear to be a high Strength Solid Chrome Plastic. They go on with 3M high Adhesive and I don't think they are coming off. Hey Blender, I hear yah about the Chrome but, this was the last thing. No more chrome for me. Cept maybe FIPK Chrome and Chrome Mudflaps. Thanks for the feedback fellas...

They look cool. Before I looked at the photos, I thought you meant the dumb looking chrome colored euro style tailights.

Hey thanks, yeah I would never put those "ricer" style lights on mine I quite like the stock lights and these just finish them off nicely. I think.

Re: New Chrome Tail Light Covers Installed..
I also have a set of those "dumb looking chrome colored euro style tailights" except mine are carbon fiber instead of chrome. I dont think they look bad on all trucks, it just depends on the color of your truck. I also have some "dumb looking projector headlights" (which i hate cz they're impossible to align) to match the taillights. I don't think they look too "ricery" haha but some may argue. Heres some pics of my headlights and taillights

Re: New Chrome Tail Light Covers Installed..
Just my two cents, but I think 'euro' lights belong on 'euro' cars......and not on trucks, especially, a truck like the (big manly voice) CHEVY SILVERADO..............
Normal, tough looking is the look we got to go for.....

Actually i was thinking of installing a set of those led tailights with the 1,000000,000000 little bulbs in them with a smoked screen instead of chrome.

Re: New Chrome Tail Light Covers Installed..
If you want class and toughness, get 03+ lights. I absolutely LOVE mine. I've given my 99 ones away

Re: New Chrome Tail Light Covers Installed..
yea, I have the euro's but I like they because they pertty much blend right into my trucks paint. I am thinking about ditching them though for some 03'+ tails.
01silverado03z400.... How well do thoes projectors work compaired to stock? I know mine suck ass but they are a different brand.

Re: New Chrome Tail Light Covers Installed..
I actually think that the new 03+ lights are a bit goofy. IMO. Just my opinion and nothing more.... They've made the actual part that you see at night for breaking much smaller. And there is just something about a blinking Amber light that seems to be more effective than a blinking Red light for turn signals.
Just my  worth...
