Re: Just a sneak peak pic!

As always it looks like you've done a great job on it. The lenses are cool, I like the flush mount lense alot! I'm not sure about the lowering of the assembly. I like the stock location better, but I do love the dropped emblem. Not sure the emblem would look as good with the light in the stock location.

Hmmmmm It is something different and new though.

Re: Just a sneak peak pic!

They look like they are Pontiac Firebird markers. Don't mean to hijack the thread. Here's another write up on them.

Re: Just a sneak peak pic!

I want to know about this. I just have redone my truck and hate the way the marker's stick out. I want them flush mounted like those! I'd like to see the backside of them. That is exactly what I need to set it off. I bought them off E-bay for the diamond cut look. I like the way they light up.

LWB trucks rule, if you don't think so measure your SWB!
After talking to tech support at Air Lift I have found out that the kit I need is 60811. Per the measurements I gave them. Ride height of truck inside spring and inside diameter of springs.

I think once the grill and trim is on they will blend in a bit. This is kind of between the shaved look and leaving them their, they won't be quit as noticable when all put together. The idea is also to give the Ilusion of it being lower than it is.

Andy~ Sorry but for what I did their is alot of welding involved so that new paint would be shot. Look into the Firebird mod but then you loose your new lenses.

I think it could look good once its all together. It just seems like somthing is missing above the light. A big blank spot above the,,,,,,oh wait I know whats moved,,,the light


I'll have to see it all together,,,, either way just for the fact it's different makes it cool. Just not sure if it's something I would do,,,,,,,but hey your truck,,,, your opinion,,,,, I can't believe you had the fortatude to do what you wanted with your truck,,,,, HOW DARE YOU!!!!!!! Sheesh what's the custom truck world coming to?


I am interested in seeing the whole package in paint though. What are going to do for paint on lowbuck or is that part of the info coming in the future?

Re: Just a sneak peak pic!

Yep I'm a bit different, too bad that short buss didn't come out this far it would have been a fun ride to high school those 7yrs

Here is the paint color and the over all look is along these lines, with several canges to the lines!

Re: Just a sneak peak pic!

That color will look killer on lowbuck. Should be interesting to see what you do with the lines that you haven't already done!


Merry Christmas Everyone

I like the lowered location but I like the "hidden" screws on the Firebird mod.
