Tires are incredible. Road noise on par, possibly better than stock. Comfort on par with stock as well.
WoW that looks great (y)

Dropped my 2019 Ram 1500 Bighorn at the body shop to repair a dent, gash in the paint, and broken bed rail cap...all self-induced while moving a ping pong table I was selling. Not a good return on investment!
This was the most expensive oil change I've ever done.... rolled car off ramps, slipped, and it rolled into my Weber grill that was against a wall. They sure make those Weber frames strong!

When are you matching the front bumper with the rest of the truck?

Lol this is this ruining it for you? It’s okay cuz it’s frustrating my gf as well. I’m not sure what I’m doing yet because this was a chrome delete and spent some cash already for a new bumper and paint. So it kind of hurts to wrap or paint over it. I’m thinking of continuing the fender wrap line to connect to the air dam. It might look silly but wrap is easily taken off. Thoughts and criticism from anyone would be appreciated.

Wired up the QTP exhaust cut out this weekend

Question (or to anyone with this) Sounds great!

How do you feel about the sound being right under the cab? Any exhaust smells? I'm still planning this but aiming to merge the 'cutout' back past the exhaust and into the duals to allow sound/exhaust to the rear.

Continuing the fender line would definitely help give it a more finished look. I've been considering doing the same style of wrap, but the inverse, black truck and anthracite on the bottom to match the wheels. Your pictures really help me visualize it.

Shoot, maybe you could do something wild and take the black up the quarter panels onto the hood, and finish it with those sport hood decals.

I did some light paint correction and Adams’s Graphene Ceramic Spray application. I might regret not putting the coating on vs. the spray but we’ll see. The spray went on Extremely easy and came off the same. I don’t believe this was any more difficult than detail spray.

I have used Turtle Wax Ceramic on my other car and my initial observation is Adams Graphene Ceramic didn’t streak as much and the shine is better.

I really liked that I could coat everything with the same spray. The reason I didn’t get the coating was to see how well the spray did on everything. If it all lasts a year or so I’ll do a full correction next year and use the coating (coating is supposed to last 7yrs vs. spray at 1.5 yrs.)

I know, not using truck to full potential, but it is pretty, LOL>..................................:cool:

BOIRD'S INANE sense of humor........................
