got then off eBay, mopar certified and they are black carbon fiber 3D. Perfect cuts and went on smoothly. I think I’m going to really like it as my new theme with the walnut brown mettalic paint. I’m not a fan of chrome and this truck has a lot of it. But the chrome looks good on the mettalic paint but in low doses. I plan to foam cannon the truck tmrw and take better pics bc it’s covered I salt. It was getting dark when I did it and night when I finished.

Got some clean pics!

Best I could do at the moment. They really tone down all the chrome with the big badges.

Now I gotta figure out what to do with the hemi badge. Either swap it’s blacked out or see if I can find a decal overlay.

Pics have been uploaded!

Finnally got the hemi and 5.7L overlays put on. Really tones down the red 5.7.

Check out reflective concepts. I got them for my rig and they make one for the "hemi 5.7". Mine are gloss black, but you can choose your design.

Any idea what the reflective black ones look like compared to the gloss black?

I like the OP's carbon fiber but I'm thinking black may look better with my metallic black paint job.

Edit: Nvm I found their color chart lol. The reflective black looks gunmetalish. For $28 and free shipping, I'll try out the gloss black.

Check out the website, they've got a carbon fiber overlay for the hemi badge too that would fit perfect.

Sweet, that'll finish it off nicely. Personally, I've always thought the red lettering stuck out like a sore thumb unless you had a red truck. I was glad my truck didn't have the hemi badge on it.

I'm torn which to get cause I like the carbon fiber but i have the metallic paint to so I’m with you the gloss might be a better choice.

These do look good. I wonder how well they will hold up though. Like how long they last till they start peeling

Prob a long time. They are Avery brand, and a good outdoor vinyl will last 3-8 years outdoors. I had a large MOPAR text on the bed sides of my last ram and they lasted a full 2 years with no signs of coming off.

That Hemi badge is a PITA to clean inside of! I was considering getting rid of it but if I can make it look nice with the overlays it might actually be worth the hassle of cleaning around it.

Thanks for this!

I hear ya man, badges are a pita. I'm kinda torn about mine. I do think mine fit in well with my truck. I would debadge to see how it looks, but it would cost me $300 to remove and reapply the ceramic coating. Hoping these vinyls will be a good compromise.
