Thanks for the comments! I'm trying to go w/ an all black theme...so next are the tail lights and 3rd brake light!

I bought them off of eBay for around $130 w/ s&h. They are JDM lights that sell for $250+ on any other automotive website. So eBay is you best choice. They came with both headlights and both bumper lights.

I think the clear ones would look good on your 98, with the chrome you have.

JDM isn't the brand... SONAR Should be the brand. It shouldn't have JDM anywhere on the assembly.
JDM is in the description because they are marketed it originally for the Japanese Domestic Market.

You should really mask up the lense and paint the out edge of the assembly. It looks so much better.
Heres a pic I took shortly after I painted mine. https://chevroletforum.com/forum/pic...3&pictureid=27

what did you use for the paint? That does look better, I was trying to figure out how to get the edges darker...Let me know, and I'll get on it b/c I like the way your look.

I painted it with Krylon Fusion. Mask it off and clean up the area with rubbing alcohol. You have to give it a light, non-covering tacking coat, then let it set for a couple minutes, give it a slightly more covering coat, after a few more minutes give it a last covering coat.

After:



I did my taillights too.

BTW, those pics are more than a year old. The paint still looks exactly like it did.

I think you ought to black out the bow tie emblem. I like the angel eyes, but I don't think I'd fork out 130 of my hard earned wompum for them.
