actually installed my rear bumpers today, as well as the signal lights i made up for the car. these are NOT factory but more for safety ( too many crazy drivers out there)

used all new hardware as well, they look great, and notice the spare tire carrier is installed as well

good angle view of left side bumper and signal/brake light

head on view of left side bumper and signal/brake light

head on view of right side bumper and signal/brake light

angle view of right side bumper and signal/brake light

per a recommendation i painted the inside of the housing gloss white, it should help reflect the little bit of light that the bulbs put out

i painted both the standard housing and the conversion LED housing.

Tail Lamp housing that will be restored all original

This is the LED housing

got my stanchions from TFS and opened them up to start laying out and building my front end

question, are they supposed to be straight up and down (90 degrees post to base) or should they be angled ??

mine are angled one more so then the other. attached are a few pictures of them

stanchions side by side for comparison, yes lean to right

stanchions top down, bases are square to each other, notice difference

looking straight on, notice the angle difference

stanchion 1 against the square

stanchion 2 against the square

updated on my painting insides... got a few coats of paint on them, all cured, and removed the tape...

should be ready for rebuilding, and yes i will remove paint from target areas to ensure proper ground :) at least i hope

here are a few of the Stock Housing Rebuild

back of stock housing

inside, gloss white background, silver reflector

lower half for tail/parking light (original hardware)
