Looks great so far! Nice job in the steps. Looks like you made them from styrene, but covered them with bare metal foil or some other diamond plate pieces? Or maybe diamond plate styrene and then the foil? It turned out really well.

Man, you did a good job! I really like the headlights. They look perfect. What did you make the bezel around the headlights out of? A trimmed down Wedico Peterbilt, double round headlight? Fits and looks great. Best KW headlight like that, which I have seen.
