    Ceramic coating finally

    Looks great! I need to ceramic my truck. I do my M2 every couple years with CQuartz UK and Carpro Gliss topcoat. Very time consuming, but it always looks great afterwards.

    Bed Divider that works with RetraxOne MX?

    Does anyone know of a bed divider solution that will work with a retrax MX cover? It looks like the OEM mopar one wont work. I do have the utility rails. First person experience greatly appreciated! Thanks

    detroitm2's 2021 Rebel Build Thread - Pic Heavy! (Updated: 5/28/24)

    Yeah, It was late and I wanted to be done for the night. I didn't have what I needed to get a good cut in the grommet without worrying about cutting into other wires in there. Its hard to get to, thats for sure.

    AMP PowerSteps: Missing Relocation Bracket?

    Realtruck owns AMP now. Total install time was about 3 hours. I got them installed last night. If the instructions were better laid out, it probably would have been 2 hours. I had to unbolt. And rebolt things several times because they don't tell you stuff like, make sure the arms are in the...

    detroitm2's 2021 Rebel Build Thread - Pic Heavy! (Updated: 5/28/24)

    Update: installed the AMP Powersteps tonight. Was a total pain in the rear. Had to bolt and rebolt things several times to make room, and instructions left a lot of small (but important) details out. I did not get the puddle lights wired up, just ran out of time. But that shouldnt take more...

    I don't. Just a car guy with cool friends :) (this is in a buddys private garage, where he keeps his toys). Checkout @ddxauto on Instagram to see his stuff.

    AMP PowerSteps: Missing Relocation Bracket?

    In case anyone stumbles across this, I talked to AMP Research today. They changed up the motor brand on the powersteps. New one is a bit smaller and the relocation bracket is apparently no longer needed. Going to try to install them later this week and will report my findings.

    Good news everyone! The wrap is DONE! And @boogielander managed to guess (pretty close anyways) on the color! I started applying some new decals, but effed up the front hood one. Had to peel it off and order a new one. Should be here next week. The inspiration for this color is the 2022 RAM TRX...

    Aux Switch Panel Question

    A bunch of those are probably ignition switched. I'd use something like F44 since its likely rarely (if ever) used.

    AMP PowerSteps: Missing Relocation Bracket?

    Went to install the AMP Powersteps I bought. However, the instructions indicate there should be a relocation bracket for the driverside to make room for the motor to attach to the front. That was not in any of the boxes that I received. I already reached out to RealTruck to try and get a...

    What else in your garage?

    I agree 100% :) Still weighs quite a bit, but it doesn't "feel" heavy.

    What else in your garage?

    Its not as bad as some sports cars, but the bucket seats are not made for "wider" frames. :) I'm borderline in that regard.

    My 2018 BMW M2. And being driven how it should :)

    haha. No, its not a BMW color. I'm pretty sure there is not another "rebel" in this color on the planet. My M2 doesn't get driven much either. It has around 48K miles on it and I bought it in 2018. Quite a bit of track time though! (Some videos on Youtube, search for my username here)

    Not LSB. Have too many blue cars at the moment :) I did almost buy an LSB E46 a couple years ago. But my plans were to make it a 100% track car and it seemed like a waste on such a rare color.

    detroitm2's 2021 Rebel Build Thread - Pic Heavy! (Updated: 5/28/24)

    It's coming along :) I'm about halfway done, working on it when I have free time (which sadly isn't a lot). Hoping to have some big chunks of time this weekend get close to completion. It's not perfect, thats for sure. But I've never wrapped anything this large before and definitely learned...
