Tail Light Guards

[braaus]

I just got my package from Isuzu factory in China, i bought the Isuzu emblem + roof lights from the F series trucks through Alibaba.com 18 bucks for all parts, but shipping was killing 50 bucks through UPS but arrived in 4 days! My rear emblem was a black sticker, and i have trouble backing up at dark, so the lights are functional, attaching them to the spoiler doesn't damage the car, just used some silicone sealand and 4 "self threading" (is that what they are called?) screws.
They are black and are hardly noticed, so i'm happy with the final result.

MAKING PROGRESS ON CUSTOM MADE TAIL LIGHT GUARDS!
Took the pics of Doug's installed tail guards to the off-road fab shop today.


1) Discussed details to fab a replica of the Rodeo guard and create 3 tabs for mounting, with appropriate shape/angle so it clears back door. Will be round/tubular style, with 4 horizontal bars within the frame. Made from mild steel. Can get them powder-coated black locally.

2) Also requested he try to re-shape the stainless steel set I got on ebay, with the flat metal design and basically find a way to make these work. I want these to be really close to the lens, so we'll see what he can do.

He has time next week, so he'll call me to set up firm appt. and I'll leave my VX for the day.

to be continued.....
