this is my nissan so far all have done to it is the bed cover(no one has it in mo)cold air intake and mirror lights (L.E.D's) sorry about the pics they are cell phone grade

the cover,
was not made by me. its a heavy duty bed cover all metal and weighs about 300 pounds.
its also a latter rack and it opens up both ways form the passenger side and driver side up for fast reach (not in pics) but i will post some later
this thing is insane!! and i love it!!
but need to paint it to match my hb

the mirros,
the mirrors where made by me! i cut some blinker tail lights out of a car at the junk yard and cut them to fit with a dremel tool and sand paper and put some leds in side of them and made them come on with my parking lights but i might change the to blink.. the first mirror took me about 6 hrs but at the end they turn out great.
people think they are factory! its great!

I want that cover dude! Where on earth did you get that? Looks like mine does, clean on the weekends and full of construction stuff during the week. Thats way better than the tonneau I was looking at.

I want details on the mirror blinkers, I have to have that. I can get some from a junkyard to cut up but where did you get the lights and lenses to fit them? What vehicle did you get the lenses from to fit the contours of the mirror?

I want the lights as blinkers, cause the HB blinkers do not show from the side on the front. They are in the bumper on my 91, so folks coming from the side see no blinker when i am at a light or a stop sign. I get nasty looks like i am not using a blinker. I want a blinker seen from the front from the side so they know I am turning.
