Ohh...I dont know how they are going to do it but they said they are going to make the LED bar very hard to see unless I hit the breaks. I dont know how they will add effect but it has something to do with paint. I will ask tommorow but sounds cool as hell.

Well my S10 is getting the back painted from all the shaving and LED install me and a buddy of mine did a while back. The primer that was on there sucked and was about to go out on me from the FL heat and rain. The truck went into the shop here in FL called 5 star paint and body. They got it filled, sanded and took care of any high spots that were in there. They started to prime it now and block sanding it before it goes into paint to make sure it all goes smooth. They have an idea on making the LED bar completely invisible to the eye unless I hit the brakes on them.

Frank, it's looking bad ass man. I'm glad you found a place that could finish it up right. For the LED, chances are what they're gonna do is just mist a color layer over the lens then clear over it. You wont even know it's there, and the cops will love it..LMAO

Ok truck is done and ready for me to pick up today but im at work and dont have time to do so. Dude...its sick as fuck....it so awesome. I shit you not...you can not see the LED bar at all! The only way to see it is if you put your faca about a foot in front of it. They did not round the corners but its all good....you cant even see the damn thing. They added a small amount of the red over the entire lense and it came out badass. Hey just wonderinf what you think...tonneu cover...take it off? Its got a lip on it and it gives the smooth look away from the truck now. What do you guys think? Man I wish I could show you guys right not...more picts here soon.

Also the cover fuck up the corners of my truck. I was thinking about taking it off and putting it back on when the hurricanes come through or the rainy season comes up. I dont know...I could sell it and rhino line it but what can I do to make for a cover over my air tank and all? I know how to align it so it doesnt rub on the corners anymore...but I just want my truck to look good and with the back end shaved like that...the lip and cover suck. I got someone to buy it from me but im thinking of keeping it for sucky days...lol.
