What did you do to your Ram today???

yes FOR SURE if it wasn't "me" the MOST obsessive lunatic that ever roamed the planet, i would have chosen to do it. In addition, the cloth inserts on the door would have had to be done as well, and when i looked at all that was involved in the installer accomplishing THAT, it sealed the deal for me that i did NOT want my doors unassembled and at the end of the day, decided its best to just "leave well enough alone" as it were, because FOR ME, i know i would have been kicking myself with all the reservations i began to have, had it not come out "perfect" and then to have spent 1500 bucks in the process to be dissatisfied : )

So in my case Risk < reward 100% of the time : )
Yup, you're eye would always go right to the imperfection everytime once you know it's there
 
Thanks! Looks really clean Scott, I'm still not sure if I'm going to do my mirror marker lens just yet., and still on the fence about the side door vent visors. My wife votes a NO on both, but she only has an opinion about my truck, not a vote ;)
Honestly I’ve always kinda frowned at the side window visors but after seeing them on some of the fellow 5th geners I thought I’d give’em a go and I actually like them on the outside but more so on the inside. My wife has given up on me altogether on my RAM and just gives me the “whatever” response.

I've had them on other trucks and really liked them from the in-cab standpoint. I'm with you on that and the outside look would have to grow on me. I think it would, I just haven't seen a 5th gen. with them in person to really gauge it. If I do get them, they will be the Mopar ones like you have.
Yours are shiny right? Not matte like your hood visor. That hood visor matches up very well with the sport hood accents. Your truck pulls it off and don't look all paw paw. Nice job my man!

Thanks Dookie. Yes sir they’re shiny/glossy.
 
Installed my new BR Katavi 20x9 wheels with Cooper ATP 275/60/R20 Tires. I liked the Katavi’s first moment I saw them and they’re perfect for the look I wanted.

Mind me askin how much they charged to install those? (If you didn’t do it yourself)
 
Looks awesome man, thanks for the link. I have a red Rebel and considering doing the same thing as well. Just wondering if you have a side shot showing the whole truck by chance?
Sure, here's a few. I think the wheel decals look pretty good, kind of a unique look, I'm happy with them for now. We'll see how well they hold up. They did send 4 extra for backup.

Got my Fuel Blitz wheels today. Decided to stay as close to OEM offset as possible +20mm (OEM is +19 so there shouldnt be any rub issues)

Ordered late last night and they were delivered by 12 noon today!

Still have to wait for my aftermarket lugs from RealTruck.com before they can be installed.

Ain't that the truth. It would really bother me.

yup yup!

cuz if u get bored and you pull up images of ppl's trucks who have gotten the katzkin leather installed, you will ALWAYS see a small section that is puckered. Might be a little, might be a lot, and if you don't see it, its cuz they didn't post that part...lol

AND if by chance some lucked out and received a magnificent install with, "zero pull" ANYWHERE, believe me they are in the minority, even the installer admitted to me he couldn't confirm 100% fitment 100% of the time, and that that was somewhat of an unrealistic goal as it is an "aftermarket product"...

He said he would be more likely to recommend the Katzkin IF the seats needed replacing due to wear/tear/, but not to take BRAND new seats and chunk 'em...lol
 
Got started on the Luyed Reverse Lights, got the Curt adapter installed and the wiring ran, just waiting on the lights to arrive.ReverseLights-1.jpgReverseLights-4.jpg
