I think that I am the first to try Prairie Tan hightowers... I think that they look good but wanna know what everyone else thinks of them... My projectors aren't finished yet but they should be done soon... I hope... I still have the passenger side to start on.

Currently on the car

those don't look too bad at all!

i think most of the time a body color hightower will look good.

I agree with you except t-red. Red just kinda looks wrong in the headlights.

That tan makes the car look good imho.

Nice work man!!

Thanks a lot... I was surprised on how well they came out. When they were off the car they looked really dark, but somehow they weren't. Believe it or not I think that the paint that I got was a GM color... But from the pics and in real life you probably wouldn't have even realized it until I said this.

No clear coat... There really isn't any need to since it will all be sealed from the elements... And I think that it will make them too glossy... I want them to have a little transition from the cars paint... The paint that I used already has metallic in it.
 
I would like to see them from a little farther away. I think the pictures are too close up to get a good feel of how the front end is going to look.
 
That looks great!:drool: Just like I said in your thread, asking what we'd think. :cool: Do you have any more pictures, from further away? I'd like to see how it looks with the entire car in the picture.

Hmm... something I had considered at one point on my prairie tan 'stique, but I didn't think it would look good. I'll have to re-evaluate that one...
