    Yep with out the plasti dip my rockers and lower doors are tan. [​IMG] They have been plasti dipped for almost 2 years now and the dip is holding up surprisingly well, but it's starting to become stained in some places and it's getting a yellowish tint to it. You can kinda tell in this pic [​IMG]

    Thank you it's taken a while but she has come a long way.
    And the retros were pretty easy and straight forward to do. The MH1s and D2S projectors are pretty much plug and play, you just have to make sure they are sitting level but that's not to hard. And yes you have to bake the housing at 210 for like 10 minutes then you can pry the lense off. If you are gonna do retros I would recommend the D2S projectors, they are better than the MH1s and install the same way. If you Google browningscrew retrofit thread you should get a link to the f150 forum with a complete how to on retrofiting 10th gen headlights. The only thing he doesn't cover in that thread is the trimming for larger shrouds. But here's some pics for reference, must full size shrouds you will have to cut the same design into to fit into out headlights [​IMG][​IMG][​IMG]

    And here is some more output shots [​IMG][​IMG]

    Thanks! I was planning the D2S's. We have some heavy duty delineator posts here in Wyoming. One stretch I know I bet these will light them up miles away! I'll try to get a photo after the install :)
