Merle Coggins Posted October 17 Report Share Posted October 17 (edited) That'll look good with the lights recessed/hidden into the rail. Are you going to do the same on the front corners with amber lights? Edited October 17 by Merle Coggins Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you going to do the same on the front corners with amber lights? Yep, all 4 corners. I debate about addding side markers/signals below the rail like below so they are visible to vehicles on the side, otherwise I have ZERO indicators on the side of the truck. That litterally might be a build day decision. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
48Dodger Posted October 17 Report Share Posted October 17 It might be a good decision to put something around the lower part of the bed. Make it look tougher. 48D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
