Just got myself a new 2021 Tank green Built to serve and I love it! First thing I did with it was get a pro-graphene coating, but that’s just the beginning when it comes to what I wanna do with the truck lol.
I’ve had it for about 2 weeks now and noticed that my front bumper chips very easily and was wondering if any of you guys have experienced the same issue, and if so what was your solution? I’m thinking of getting linex ultra on the bumpers and possibly grille but I’m not 100% sure what to do. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated! I attached some pics of the truck below!

p.s. the black truck on the left was my old ram, I’ve lived rams for awhile lol

Welcome to the forum and congratulations on your new truck . I've seen trucks with Linex on the bumpers and also some that have applied PPF to them , both successful .

Thanks man! Ya I’m leaning a lot towards the linex but I’m a very picky person when it comes to big changes like that on my truck. On one side I think it’ll be awesome and make the truck look more aggressive and on the other I’m sitting here thinking it will ruin the stock look LOL. I don’t know what the hell to do haha 😅

I would say either have it touched up and apply Xpel stealth ppf, or have it Line X’d since the BTS can pull that look off but that would also mean “I” would personally have the rear bumper and grill done as well to complete the look.

Ya I would definitely get the rear number and grill done as well so it looks uniform. I’ve never heard of Xpel before, what kind of product is it ?

Clear paint protection film, typically it’s a gloss film but they also have the stealth matte film that would work better for you. It can take a beating and help prevent those rockchips from happening.
