OMG the paint match is awesome. What specific brand can did you get and where?

Stripes look awesome to!

No sure the name brand. It was just the high temp flat orange engine enamel I found at auto zone, then I came over it with a clear. Matches pretty damn close.

Lol! Sorry, just seeing this. We'll meet up one day, I'm sure.

It's all good man. We will have too

I think you live close to my friends wife parents house in Sorrento. My friend says he see's a truck like yours all the time.
He has a RAM too, the one in my Avatar.

Possible. I don't live that far from St Amant High. Probably sees me on the weekends. It stays parked during the week. Lol!

Installed a BedRug bed liner and Bak Revolver X2 this past week. So far I like them both!

Looks great! Love your build! I really like that roll-up over as opposed to my tri-fold. Definitely takes up less space when you roll it up vs my tri-fold.

Thanks! Hadn't really got to use it yet as I rarely drive my truck due to me always at work in my work truck, but so far I like it better than my Bak Flip trifold one I used to have on my old Ram.

So a few updates on my truck. Decided to take off the maxtrac lift and install Inez Hotrod drop. Went from one extreme to the other, lol!

A couple things Id like to do is the Mopar lip kit, a street scene roll pan, remove my tail pipes and put turn downs, a limited grille, and some type of small spoiler. Not sure if I want the roof one that goes right above the rear window or one that goes on the bed of the truck like the super bees came with.

Apparently you've never seen killerwaxx in action, lol! For at least 3 months, the rain will just roll right off, and my truck will be dry before the rain even stops. That's why I use it and will never change to anything else unless it's given to me to try for free. Lol!

Oh I believe ya. My buddy does ceramic coating off hwy 42. It's like a waterfall off a vehicle when it rains. :):):)

Truck looks good though man. We still need to meet up one day.

Decided to go down a little bit more in the rear to match the front better.

For those interested:
Front is Inez 4"drop control arms with untouched stock spring and shock.
Rear is the Belltech springs that come with the Inez kit with 4 rungs cut off and drop control arm brackets.

As the way it sits, the rear is ½" higher than the front.

Thanks! I love it. Definitely gets lots of looks on the road.
I know the feeling, I get people at red lights telling me/asking me **** all the time. I'm a big fan of Hemi Orange too. I wish it was a RCSB, but I understand most people need four doors. Congrats.

Looks Soooooooo much better lowered, but I wasn't going to knock the lift. I'm sure you like the way it handles now!

Handled great both ways. I have the Hellwig sway bars set on stiff and drive the hell out of it. Even lifted I drove it like a racecar.
