Dude you can't tease us with just one pic and no details! What'd you go with? How does it perform?

So far this is all that I’ve done. It handles and rides just like factory. I wanted a true lift kit but at the time and still now it’s hard to find lifts for 2w/d trucks!

Bored this weekend so i hooked up the light bar temporarily to see how it looked. Really wish my switches were here...

If you haven’t ordered yet here’s a 20% off link for Lamin-X. They set it up for my YouTube Channel.


And here’s how those fog covers install, super easy



Thanks for the info.

Curious, are your fog lights tinted with Lamin-X?

I’d really love to figure out how to turn my DRL into amber color, but really don’t want to rip the lights apart to change out the LED boards. Do you think a film could accomplish this?

Alternatively, I’ve wondered if there’s any way to wire my turn signals into DRL and signal.
 
I don't have splash guards on my Limited. Maybe you can trim the front splach guards.
I had to do a good bit of trimming, manipulation with a heat gun and wet towel, bend a bracket back and drill new hole for push pins, but I did manage to get to full lock to full lock without any contact/rubbing at all...and able to maintain the splash guards. Only took 4 hours!

Yes mine are, that video is my walk through on how to install them. It took 5 min per light. Great quarantine project...

Congrats bro! I know the feeling. Been there done that, lol!!!
 
Waterfowler41, I ordered some of the Rapid Tac to do my headlights and fogs. In your video, you said it allows you to move the film on the lens once overlaid, correct?
When I did my tails all I used was filtered water on both the Lamin-x and the lens, and no matter how much water I used, the film would stick and not able to move at all. Hoping the Rapid Tac will help ease the install process. If it allows you to move the film on the lens, the tails would have been MUCH easier and likely a better result than I have. If it works like that I may remove my current install and order a new set with your discount and try with the Rapid Tac. Nice install vid, and cute Lil helper dude you have there.

Yup I’ve never had good luck with water or soapy water mixes. Rapid Tac takes the guess work out. Even if you use too much of it, it eventually all evaporates without residue. It’s a good prep cleaner too
 
Have a link to the plugs you used? I could use some in black.
I actually picked them up at my local Advance Auto Parts store. Below is a picture of the exact retainers that I used and they fit perfect. They come in black, I had to paint mine with touch-up paint and clear coat them.

Added the flushmount AVS window vent shades.....I think I’ll have to reinstall as 3 of 4 have some wavyness to them....not sure if i am a fan yet either way. All are in channel except for edge near pillars so that part doesn’t sit flush. Which is hopefully is just an error on my part.
