Thanks guys, and its just regular 16 gauge sheet metal. It doesnt sound gay, i know what you mean lol cause actually on my facebook, i have a jeep build album and the pic of the tail lights is title "now aint that a good lookin a$$" lol..

I am seriously thinking on making another set, and when i do ill make a write up on it, cause those i just threw together within a few hours and never stopped to take any time for pics.

No, they're aluminum finish, though i have thought on having them powder coated.

Those light boxes are slick. Really like the bumper, tucked tight and straight to work. Nice

I like those! I seen em right after i bought the boggers/wheels(used) and thought i gotta make mine look like that! It'd match the rest of the black on my Jeep.

Thanks man! When i built the front and rear, i set em up to be tucked, but still work as their supposed to. They're simple but capable for anything anyone could need them for.

Thanks! And actually i traded it for the wheels i have on my XJ now. The previous owner had taken it off and half the parts were gone. So i built this... I put the stock tail lights back in it till i can afford the reverse lights and finish em up..
