  Using SDSS Stripe82 data we have obtained deep radial surface brightness
profiles of 7 face-on to intermediate inclined late-type spirals down to \sim
30 mag arcsec^-2 in the r'-band. We do not find any evidence for a sharp
cut-off of the light distribution of the disks but a smooth continuation into
the stellar halos of galaxies. Stellar halos start to affect the surface
brightness profiles of the galaxies at \sim 28 mag arcsec^-2, and at a radial
distance of \sim 4-10 inner scale-lengths. We find that the light contribution
from the stellar halo could be responsible of previous classification of
surface brightness profiles as Type III in late-type galaxies. In order to
estimate the contribution of the stellar halo light to the total galaxy light,
we carried out a Bulge/Disk/Stellar Halo decomposition by simoultaneously
fitting all components. The light contribution of the halo to the total galaxy
light varies from ~ 1% to ~ 5%, but in case of ongoing mergers, the halo light
fraction can be as high as ~ 10%, independently of the luminosities of the
galaxies. We have also explored the integrated (g'-r') color of the stellar
halo of our galaxies. We find (g'-r') colors ranging from ~ 0.4 to ~ 1.2. By
confronting these colors with model predictions, we encounter problems to fit
our very red colors onto stellar population grids with conventional IMFs. Very
red halo colors can be attributed to stellar populations dominated by very low
mass stars of low to intermediate metallicity produced by bottom-heavy IMFs.
