anyone with a laramie???

What about bedlining the rocker panels, fenders, flares, and bumpers? Then color match the door handles and mirror caps.

I've actually thought about that pretty hard, just take some serious balls on my part to do it

Well how much do you like chrome? That's the only way I see to get rid of it unless you want to pay a lot of money having the truck monotoned.

Try it with plasti dip and see how you like it...

If it was me, I would enjoy the Laramie being a Laramie for a while which is a beautiful truck. Do things like audio, maybe a bed rug, things like that.

Then since modding is so fun, you can put aside the money you would spend on modding the Laramie to get a cool project truck that you can really put yourself into and make it special over time.

Yea very good idea Kevin, not a fan of it but it works very well with this truck, gonna play with photoshop some and I got a homemade bed rug already and I love the audio and will just add my subs to it

Well I bought a laramie because I liked that I didn't have to do much to either the outside or inside. That being said, I like the look of a sport and I like the look of a lift. I'm not a huge fan of the Chrome but I couldn't pass on the interior and sound (and the price I was given). You'd be headed in the right direction if you went with jj heads. I'm a fan of doing one small thing at a time. I went debadge then tint then heads and tails. Slowly but surely making my way to everything color matched. Just do what you like. If anyone says "not for a laramie," question back with a why the Hell not haha.

Thanks and just curious how dark did you go over stock and I like my badges so they are staying just maybe not the same color

OutlawTrucker · Jun 16, 2012

Like the sig pic Jeremy.

GhostRam94 · Jun 17, 2012

Thanks a ton, got to thank johnny though!!

TheMaddog · Jun 17, 2012

****, make your own sealed box, that's what I did and it shakes everything. But I would a 3 inch lift, or just level it out, nothing too crazy, and add some beefy tires, plastidip those rims, a tonneau cover, color matched tails. Like JJ.

BOOM, I just gave you your mod list...

GhostRam94 · Jun 17, 2012

Got the cover, suspension mods are on hold for a long time until I figure money out, and i would have no idea how to make a box for under the seat and I will never plasti dip these rims, way to nice and look good like tthey are .

A level is in the future maybe sooner than later and a 6+ is in the future and 37

oh and I porb will tint my tails soon after I get a feel for the cops up here at Sam

Why mess with perfection haha. I love how the truck looks because I like tasteful chrome accents so as for aesthetics I have only tinted the windows, put on tonneau cover and bought big tires.

GhostRam94 · Jun 17, 2012

How much more did you tint over the factory tint, I was thinking maybe like 50 over the side windows and back and a 5% strip at the top, and tires are deff at the top of the big list.
Oh and these truck are deff perfect but I need a few more things

I just matched the front two to the back as best I could. I think it was 20% sun-guard. I have done tint over factory in the past but it is hard to see at night. That was on my Durango and I did 5% over privacy and it was insane. Looked so awesome but just sucked backing up. Now that I have backup cam it may not be a bad idea but I like the matched look really and hate having the cops here hassle me for tint so what I have is fine.

Grubrunner · Jun 17, 2012

To those who think most Laramie owners aren't the modding type...

*****!

quietpeen · Jun 17, 2012

Lol. If you won't to get technical. Most of any vehicle buyers are not the modding type

Nice

looking forward to pics!!!

REQN · Jun 18, 2012

I matched the front to the rears, my guy said it was 28% to match using the 3M stuff. To me, it looks off. But then again, I'm sure it's not the easiest to judge and its not that far off. Looks good at a glance, but a little frustrating when you stare at it

anyone with a laramie???
