Rick, I like the taillights. Your paint job looks real nice too.

I do too Pablo. I guess it's the chassis builder in us.
Thanks for the support on the paint job. 
I really had some problems. It was really cold so the paint wasn't spraying as nice as in the summer. I heated the rattle cans in hot water too. But I think my tendency to creep up to close to the body while spraying was putting the paint on thickly.
