Hey everyone,

New to the forum and new to RAM as well. just switched over from a '16 2.7 Ecoboost to my new 2020 1500 Big Horn/Lonestar Edition.

Highlights: Equipment level 2, 5.7 Hemi, Anti-Slip, 3.92 Gears.
To do: OEM LED conversion for head and tail lights via retroshop as well as Katskin leather interior.

Here are a couple of pics. Absolute love the truck so far.
looks nice. how do you like the tow mirrors? Ive seen a lot of people actually dislike them due to blind spots.

very clean looking! Did you have the color-matched grille surrounds painted or are they OEM replacements?

Had them painted

Dechromed most everything with a few oem black emblems and the rest with Plastidip.. I think I'm gonna get the grill professionally painted

How do you like the touring? Is it loud enough for you? Still get throaty?

I’ve owned 2 black Ram 1500s (2005 and 2010), one white Ram 1500 (2012 still have it), and now my 2019 Granite, and I have to say that I love this color.

Would you say your wheels are 100% color match to the truck? I have the same wheels but on a black truck and am changing the center caps and bought Mopar 68183830AB (Paint code PAU) to paint them with hoping they match the wheels perfectly. Thanks, and NICE truck!

Got myself a 2020 Granite Crystal Limited since my 2019 Black Limited was received again by my dealer. Didn´t like all the chrome that the limited brought so I decided to invest a little in order to make it look better.

- 22" Limited Black Appearance Wheels
- Painted all the Chrome Grill in Granite/Black mix
- Chrome door trim replaced with black trim
- All "RAM" chrome emblems replaced with black ones (including hood emblems)
- Long door chrome trims removed
- Mirror covers painted matte black

Would love your opinion on what else I can put to my truck!

Looks good. At first I hated those for some reason but the more and more I see them, the more they grow on me.

Went for a drive on the Foothills Pkwy this weekend and had some cool cloud cover. Had to use my phone because I forgot my camera. Turned out pretty decent for a phone though. I'll have the camera next time for sure!

I'm planning on getting the Decked truck bed soon and I'd like to wrap all of the chrome emblems in a brushed metal vinyl. I have the vinyl, just trying to figure out how to wrap them with no wrinkles. Any tips would be helpful :cool: Should look pretty killer if I can get it to work.

Only visible mods right now though are the sprayed bed liner, Swagman Patrol 2 bike rack in the truck bed and the Husky Liner mud flaps.

Hidden mods are a drop-in K&N filter and Charcoal filter delete. I don't want to get into too many mods on this guy. I've been down that road before...

Enjoy the pics
