What's the difference between the RC1 and RC2? They look to be the same price on Mr. T's website and, just looking at the photos, I don't see any obvious differences. Both look great.

Thank you! It seems that the only major difference is the size of the lip surrounding the headlight bucket with the RC2 providing a better fit, eliminating some of the light that would shine through to the inside of the RC1. At least, that's all I took away from that thread.

MG, look close at them in the pic that Ferret referred to. The 2 is more angular. The 1 more rounded. The stripes can help you to see that. The pics on samurider can help too.

Good call. Subtle, but there. I think I prefer the RC1. But only when viewed side-by-side. I'm sure I'd like them equally if viewed alone.

Seems like most like the 2 better. I'm partial to the 1 and ordered that in silver with no stripe. Like Chip Beck's.

Wish black was that easy, it would be done already. Look at a black pic and check out the diff.

MG, copy these pics to your PC and put them side by side and you can easily see the difference between the 1 and 2. Enlarge as needed.

Ok, I guess you don't need to copy them to your PC. Still getting the hang of posting pics. 1 on top, 2 on bottom
