Tail lights and Bumper

Instead of buying new weather seals for the tail lights I decided to give Flex-Seal a try. Sprayed on a heavy coat and let it cure. Turned out ok.

The bumper is three ply HDPE 4" tube (for fishing pole storage). There really isn't a requirement on trailer bumpers so this design adds to functionality as a camper. Bumper looks long... but its width equals maximum trailer width measured from door handle to door handle.

Also installed two brake/running lights on trunk lid to improve night time driving visibility.

Final two pictures are before and after.

In work finishing up trailer wiring.
