id say no boot becase it has a cleaner look to the shock. also i have to say your lights came out really nice! i dont really like and after market ones so i think im going to get led bulbs for my stock ones. and i actually like a side wall on the toyos. my girl has 20s and its too flashy. i think im goin nittos next.

surprise, az
Looks like I've been slacking, the tails look good, summit has a set of led tails kinda like mine but instead of chrome around the led like mine they are black around the led, also I wouldnt run the boots on the shocks either

what color is the boot?? The thing with the boots is they serve a purpose, keeping road grime , mud out of the shock. If you decide run no boots your shcoks could prematurely wear. It is a cleaner look but is it worth it??

South- Your lights turned out stupendous man! I think im going spary mine!

you're always yelling.

haha southern im not yelling Im just typing loudly:gr_grin: Those tails look awesome I need to buy new ones for my truck cause theyre both cracked. I'm just gonna have to live with them for now until i can get the leds. No sense in buying some cheap oem ones in the meantime.

i have a pro comp sittin in my garage, but i will prolly end up selling it, tires are only 6 months old and not gettin rid of them, really a lil tall for what i use my truck for anyways

makes using it on the farm harder for when i do go out there

i bought it on an impulse buy from a guy used and now im just gonna sell it and use that money for a downpayment on a newer nicer hd truck

If you are actually looking to sell it... how much?

I agree and if the boots are red that would accent the black and red theme you already have goin..

I really didn't get that glossy look I was shooting for. I only had about 1/4 can of clear left over, and I just didn't care enough to go buy more. However, I was able to get them very very smooth atleast with that 1000 grit sandpaper...I still need to wet sand my towz too :hmm:

Do a light wet sand then polishing compound then a top coat finishing wax = glossy chum
