Title: Headlights with Fog Lights - Before & After
Post by: txforetravel on April 07, 2012, 08:46:15 am
Here are two pics of our headlight change from FOT.  We really really like how they are finished out!  And the fog lights are great!

Very nice job. I hope to have that done someday. I bet you can see much better at night also.

Looks great and the foglights match!  Is that a reflector or turn signal on the side that was added?  Looking forward to the report on your 1st night drive.

Very nice!  Rumor has it you really like the Armorcoat you had done by FOT, too ;)

We have to thank Tom and Shirley Day for telling us about the Armorcoat when we were checking out their headlight conversion.

they are side markers, lights, not reflectors.  Not sure if they are turn signals.  I'll have to turn them on and see! 

The Armorcoat is great.  Bugs just wash off with little to no effort!  Really nice!

Dave,

I'm not sure - believe it is.  It's what they use on the new coaches.  I'll ask Justin this week if we see him.

ETA I Googled it and found this http://www.nbm.com/emedia/pdfs/spotlights/rvp/ArmorCoat-spotlight.pdf (http://www.nbm.com/emedia/pdfs/spotlights/rvp/ArmorCoat-spotlight.pdf) , so yes.

Howdy Michelle, 
  Thanks for the feedback..Is it installed both above and below windshield, or just below??  This looks like a great product, and I'm really interested..I'll be in Nac in a month or so, and I can check it out futher...
 
Thanks, Dave Abel

We had it both above and below the windshield.  Justin at FOT recommends it in both places.  I'm already really really liking it.  Much better than the "flim" that was pieced in with seams.

Dave,

You have the option of just below the windshield or also doing up above it.  We did both after talking with Justin and the comments that it makes it easier to clean up the bugs.

Cost varies wildly and you'll need him to look at your coach to really get a quote.  It depends on how much touch up/repair is needed to get the front end in pristine/like-new condition before applying the coating.

Steve and Michelle,
Your new tail lights look great.  Sorry to see your coach still inside the service fence.  But it is in nice company, lots to see this weekend here.  See you Monday, I am sure you will be happy with the beautiful job they did on the paint work.

We had the same thing done before picked up our coach when we bought.  I alway meant to post up the results, but laziness got the best of me.  So here it is now.  And yes I like the armor coating on the front.  We also had the tail lights done at the same time. 
When we bought the coach we negotiated the selling price and then we worked in the price of the headlight/foglight/taillight conversion at 50% the regular cost.  I hope they made some money out of the deal, but at least I felt we were getting a good deal on our end. 
And yes I have the regular license plates now.
