    Ok so I got them finished up tonight, I did clear coat them, but first I got some touch up white paint to out-line the letters on the horns. I am happy with the outcome. They are not perfect but good enough to go under the truck. lol

    Here are all the tools and materials I used to do the project

    J., I think that looks awesome !!! I love the detail of painting the white letters, Great job on that.

    Question: How much PSI do you need to make them sound off?

    Thanks,

    nice paint job. A little too details for going up under the truck not to be seen and hit with rocks and such. But DAMN they look nice :waytogo:

    ya know I just had a thought, if you put a skid plate down maybe they will be a little more protected.
