What did you do to your Ram today???

[z0n3]

I had a my friend do it, my truck needed some paint correction from when i bought it. I’ve seen videos on YouTube and it looks fairly easy

Good stuff, yeah I’ll be doing a compound and polish to mine before it goes on

Applied reflective red lettering on the hood bezels from Reflective Concepts. A surprisingly stressful job trying to get them to line up properly. They gave some extras in case I messed up though.

Also got some fender vents installed from Air Design USA. Took it to a body shop since it required cutting into the fenders. Body shop charged me an hours worth of labor to get them installed. Not bad in my opinion.

I really like those red letters. Been trying to decide how/what graphics I want to add to the font end, those are definitely going on the list.

Those look awesome! A couple of questions about your truck. What bug deflector do you have? Did you get your front bumper wrapped or painted and if you don't mind me asking, how much did it cost?

Thank you! It’s the Mopar matte black bug deflector ordered through the dealer. Bought a new bumper and had it painted. 300 for the new bumper and 300 for the paint job and I installed it myself. I did do a small wrap job on the bumper in satin black to continue the fender flare line down to the air dam at the bottom of the bumper 30$. In no way is my build cost effective but I’m glad I did it.

Installed the Retrax ProMX this weekend: https://retrax.com/product-detail/80244.



MANY thanks to @Snicklefritz_76 for his help and some of his tips, especially about using replacement/upgraded weather-stripping.

tonneau covers that work with the multifunction tailgate?

Anyone have a truxedo Sentry with the brackets? I want to get a soft roll up cover with the replacement brackets and have been eyeing that cover for a while Same question here for the Tyger soft roll up?.. Anyone install with the aftermarket Brackets? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

love that flag on the back in the sliding window like that was thinking of doing the same, do you mind providing the info where you got it from (link, price, etc). Also curious how the view is out the back with that installed?

Thanks for the info brother, I really appreciate it.

I love that too and was going to get one, but this pic at Amazon made me change my mind.

Also, not to be that guy, but the number of stars is off too.

thanks for that, really appreciate it.
Yeah definitely can't do that then. need better visibility than that (for the wife, i could care less... but it's "our" car... for anyone else that deals with that).

That was pointed out to me after I originally posted it. I did not notice the "defect", nor did my USMC Vet son.

SO, I removed it and applied one that was accurate:

Rear Middle Window Decal for 2019-2021 Dodge RAM 1500 2500 USA | Etsy

(2019-2021) DODGE RAM 1500/2500/3500 CUSTOM DECAL REAR WINDOW DESIGN – USA FLAG BLACK VINYL * Fits 2019-2020 Dodge Ram 1500/2500/3500 * Decal is made from high quality vinyl from 3M * 5-year rated outdoor durability * Easy do-it-yourself installation, guide included * Our decals are precision-cut

And yes, it is a bit more difficult to see out the rear window, but after time, I'm pretty used to the view being a bit obscured and I find myself using the side mirrors a little more.

Looks better too, in my opinion, with the smaller stars. And hey, if you really need use of your rearview mirror back you can always install one of the new rearview camera mirrors from the 2021's. Here is a thread that explains how to do it. https://5thgenrams.com/community/th...on-third-brake-light.24560/page-7#post-371624

I plan to get one myself at some point.

The theme is appropriate because my Son is a USMC Vet and the Ram is Patriot Blue. Some add'l USA themed itmes on my Ram:

That's a PERFECT fix ... THANKS!

Thor that don’t want the flag window decal can go this route $50 on Etsy. It is a plastic version as opposed to the metal one. Fit really well and has 49 stars due to the shape.

That's OK. There are a few states we could do without anyway ;-)
