I got my chrome wrapped today. I'm not entirely sure I am in love with the outcome but it is growing on me a little. I have some alterations in mind, specifically the door handles (want body color) and maybe the ram emblem on the sides (Prob order the black ones). I'm going to let some time pass and see how I like it before reversing anything. I was trying to avoid the all blackout chrome as its too common and was trying for something different.

The wrap color is Matte Anodized Bronze, with some gloss black in places (front grille surround, window trim and ram head). I also had the limited and 4x4 emblems debadged.

The truck is kinda dirty, I didn't wash it before I took it there and I can't wash it for 48 hours.

Let me know what you guys think.

I think the whole truck would look good wrapped in that color.

Love the idea and the job looks very well done. But, I must say, I am not a fan of the bronze at all. Looks like it clashes to me as the two colors do not go well together. Always trust your first instinct and gut, versus what others may say, as not all folks will share their honest opinion. It looks like someone was colorblind and made a bad mistake. I would get it redone in BLACK...now that would look HOT against that beautiful charcoal color;)

Thanks! I appreciate your honest feedback, and I have a pretty good eye for what looks good, and I knew when my first impression didn't blow me away, that some changes were in order.
Yea they do great work. I looked at tons of swatches trying to pick a good accent color. I agree black would look good, but you see that combo everywhere, and that doesn't solve my requirement for a unique look. I have seen pics of the granite with the front fascia black, and I actually don't like that look either. Everywhere else, black would look great, but not in that section IMO.

It's always a process to get a vehicle right where I want it. I just wish I would have followed the recommendation of the installer and ordered just one yard of material and wrapped a few pieces first before proceeding with all the trim. I am probably not going to scrap the whole job, but rather begin by addressing the parts that bother me the most and go from there.
 
Blacked out with mopar badges today except hood. Pulled them off painted matte paint and reinstalled for now will get mopar latter. And pulled exhaust tips off and painted with 2000 degree flat black paint will get something else later too. Also have 24” black wheels and black license plate on the way.

Yesterday spent nearly all afternoon emptying the bed of tools and rubbish then stuck a licence plate on a bit of wood and some lights running to the trailer electrics for on the bed extender, they're hot on proper illuminated plate display over here.

Today, 450 miles round trip to pickup a body kit for another car, put a hood, front and rear bumpers, spare wheel and side skirts in the bed and 5 x door panels plus a rear spoiler in the cab. Great when you can get half a car in another quite easily!

Was about 9 hours driving but was super comfortable and did 20mpg, pleased with the run in the Ram and the bodykit!

Always love seeing the lights on this truck. Front and back.

Installed a bed light kit to a switch wish I could figure out how to tap into the cargo light so it turns on when the tailgate opens but I had no luck even after searching.

Off Road group but off road tires dont come with that like the Falkens?
you know I’ve been wondering the same. The tires aren’t a huge deal to me because the whole setup will get replaced soon enough. The tires I have don’t warrant much off-road use at all.
 
Finished debadging
