Hey, Nice job man! Did you take your time and seal them back up real good so you do not get any condensation in them?

How do you like it? Did you use a flat black, semi flat, or gloss? It looks almost like a semi flat to me...

What's next?

this whole project was very time consuming...i sealed them up pretty good using

the stock sealant...i bought silicon sealant but i didnt think it was necessary...i'll

see how well it holds up...i used a gloss black and clear coat...it wasn't easy to

do, i got high from the fumes, my back is in pain but im satisfied with the end

result...
