Now that's funny!

Yes I believe plastic to stainless swap is plug and play.

Sad to see the Blackened arches go but I understand.. its very McPirate looking..

Its not like where going to name her Supersize me.. Just a thought on the story line as mentioned its a special boat..You tell people it was a custom built Cobalt for a McDonald executive and they will be puzzled.. haha

Plus I kinda like the White Docking lights at they set off with the white strip.. Looks tough!! Very offshore sporty.

I vote to keep the McD's arch and just introduce yourself as Ronald Jr., or Mr. Hamburgler, just for fun. First order of biz, replace docking light fixtures. Congrats on this one!!
Oh yeah..Black Boats Matter! :D

I'm voting the arches out. Nice touch for the prior owner though.
You'll be answering endless questions about the arches to the point of probably drowning some drunk guy tied up next to you in the near future..... :D

Stainless docks, but be prepared to mortgage them!

Out with the arches. They're black anyway. Golden was the color of choice.

Can still get factory so why look around? And halogen vs led remember...bright white fog bouncer led (unless they make a color for fog/weather) or dimmer off white fog penetrator. You know, Cause we all rush out to boat heavily when the fog rolls in.

No just the company that makes the oem ones. I was looking for SS ones. No luck. The Led bulb I think will be easy to get.

Hey are you getting the two footies already :-) look at your signature.
Did I miss something.lmao
