Definitely! It saves time from having to paint them and they were reasonablely priced too!!

Operation debadge is complete. I left the hemi badge on, still not sure about it. Ordered the flares just now lol. Your truck is a body lift right?

Little update! I peeled off the plasti dip on my emblems, just wasnt holding up! So I painted them with gloss black paint. The rear turned out perfect but the front not so much lol..so Im getting a new emblem from argray90, so I can try for round two! I also painted my antenna base gloss black. Still debating if I want to tint my tail lights or not??

Also caved and ordered some gap guards from Bully's Performance!





Before gap guards

 

[Thor09]

The shine of paint really stands out compared to the plastidip, looks good man

 

[GlOcKnRaM]

I think so too, I'm thinking it'll definitely last longer and hold up better as well!

 

[fastNugly]

Good call.
I like the gloss black on the mineral grey

Well after fast delivery from Bullys Performance, I got my gap guards installed today. My only complaint is you have to play a guessing game as to which one goes where. The instructions say they are labeled and they arent..so you kind of have to see what side they look better on. They look kind of funky/out of place, but the gap is definitely covered up! Looks better than before! I did have to trim the passenger side, but that is my fault from when I originally trimmed my fender liner. Thanks to Andrew/aka fastNugly for the help!

Awesome truck glocknram!

Looking to do something similar with my white 2013 sport. Already have a 2.5" level and 35x12.5x20's.

Now looking to do a body lift. In one of your videos you mentioned you can't tow from your hitch; is this a certain type of hitch you have?

I don't have a hitch on my truck yet but definitely want to get one I can use.

Any advice???

 

[argray90]

You can't tow from your bumper but if you have a hitch you can tow from your hitch I am pretty sure.

Yeah like mentioned you can tow from the hitch just not the bumper. The bumper looses strength with the body lift, but the hitch is fine!

 

[Shypowskyj]

Ok so I'm guessin you have a hitch similar to this then....

Something between those, lol..not quite sure what exact model.. its just the stock one

 

[GlOcKnRaM]

Well I got new tires put on today, needed something less aggressive and more road friendly. I went with Nitto Terra Grapplers in 275/65/20 aka 34x10.8x20! I was surprised how much smoother it turned, take offs were smoother, and definitely a quieter ride. I dont think they look to small, but tell me what ya think!








bye bye trails!
