Garage Fit

[x33speed]

Hello all. I am a new owner of a 2018 Ram 1500 Ecodiesel Quad Cab 6'4"Bed 4x4. To get it to fit in my garage I have to gentle press the license plate into my drywall. I probably have 1/2-3/4" to spare. Any ideas on what material I could put in front of the truck to keep from spearing my wall and to not scuff the truck? I have the tradesmen plastic bumper. Thanks in Advance.

Adhesive backed foam sheet or sound deadening material along the wall where the bumper touches/meets. Something like this:

It might not be a permanent fix but may help both the wall and your bumper.

That Foam looks good! So just mount it to a thin board? Thanks for the advice

There are a million different products out there for just that purpose. Take your pick.

Either a thin board or direct to the wall, shooter's choice on that.

What did you wind up doing? Same issue.

I hung a fuzzy blanket (the kind for a real bed) on the wall when I had that problem at my old house. Convex mirrors in the corner as well.
