When I originally wrapped my ram snow camo I did the roof satin battleship grey , you will not be disappointed with that choice , color is really really nice I wish I had some pictures
I’m down in Westchester County
Thank you that helps me choose! I was leaning that way anyway so I def will go with satin Battleship Grey! I just recently happened to see a matte indigo vehicle and so I’ve been wanting to test it out on the ram and I don’t mind changing colors often. Do you do wraps for a living? I see you change them often
No I do plumbing /heating and air conditioning for a living but I went to school for vinyl wrapping to get certified because I wanted to learn it and possibly do it as a hobby or side work for people I know . Except the side work thing didnt work out , people think because you do it after hours or on the weekends your prices should be cut in half , and I don’t enjoy working for free lol . So I just vinyl wrap my own stuff .
There’s plenty of other brands then 3m... hexis , KPMF , Avery Dennison , orafol, vivvid , I’m sure one of those companies will get you close to that color .
Check out this hydro blue TRX video. Would look similar to this...... looks awesome. The guy needs to learn how to do a burnout though
I’m not up on wraps simply because the closest thing to vinyl and wrap we had was the in the kitchen - floor covering and the stuff Mom put over the leftovers. I’m old and gray haired, and am curious how much a typical wrap job costs on a Ram. And how long do they last? Easy to take off to replace? Thanks in advance for enlightening me/us old guys.
Pick-up trucks are a boat load of work . I’d say price range is anywhere from 5-10,000 depending on the color and brand you choose . As far as how long it lasts really depends on how well you maintain it , how much you use the truck , does it sit outside or inside ? All depends. You’ll get minimum 4-5 years out of a wrap and if we’ll maintained 6 or more . And it comes off easy with steam , just like removing wallpaper .
Man I love that gunmetal one, what do you call that color? I am not doing my truck but am going to be ordering a custom build camper/ice house and we need to choose a wrap for the exterior. I Might go with something like that. Thanks in advance, and I also love the look of your truck, very sharp. I really want to do those rough country LED’s in the grill. I keep talking myself out of it, but everytime I see pics of a truck with them I love the way it looks.Here are some photos of my car which I change the color on pretty often , definitely a lot easier then the ram only because of the space I have in the garage ....

One thing I can say about switching up the color often is , it definitely makes you enjoy the car/truck when you start getting bored of it . It’s like getting a new one Everytime , and protects the paint all in one . Definitely worth the money
Looks sharp!!!
You changed the brake calipers too....went from red to blue and of course different tires. You're doing more than just the wrap! Fantastic work my friend.Here are some photos of my car which I change the color on pretty often , definitely a lot easier then the ram only because of the space I have in the garage ....

Thanks man appreciate that
Yup bright fire engine red .Looks sharp!!!
Glad to see you put the tow hooks back on. Fire Engine red?
Love the rock lights in the wheel wells.
Plenty of bugs here , especially with the corvette being so low to the ground , never had a issue with bugs chipping vinyl ever . I’ve had my vehicles wrapped for around 5-6years now
The color on that is Avery Matte Gunmetal Grey , I loved that color too . And the rough country 6” grill lights were a pain to install but definitely worth it . The lights aren’t that bright at all , but the looks of it is what I love .
