I thought the stock black hood badges were just too dark and unreadable and needed some color. Got a set of decals from Reflective Concepts in granite crystal metallic. It's a little lighter than the paint. Here's the results. Not sure if I like all the lettering colored or just the Hemi 5.7 part. I think I'm leaning towards just the Hemi part. The 1500 looks too blingy I think in grey. I ordered a set of decals in gloss black. I'll see how the 1500 looks in gloss. Anyway, here are the results. (I know I have a small bubble on the 5...I'll fix it)

Looks great man! Great move on that one.

Holy shipping rip off to Canada. I hate when companies do that. $9.99 for the sticker I would get, $45 for shipping. They can take their stickers, roll them up and the rest you can figure it out! lol

$45 for shipping? That is crazy. They could just put them in a regular letter envelope or a birthday card.

I ordered the front RAM overlay, the 3500 hood overlay and RAM for the taillight overlays. Got them today, will apply them when we get some warmer weather. I got them in glossy white. Looks like they use 3M vinyl. Should be good, will post up when I get them on.

Was only able to get the grill logo on and the tail lights done, will work on the 3500s on the hood probably tomorrow.

I got the 3500s on the hood today. I like the way they turned out. I do like that the company provides extra overlays in case you make a mistake.

Just added the front RAM lettering in crystal granite. Man, it really makes a big difference in that huge grill void. Used to just look like a big, black mass. This is the way it should come in my opinion.

20220518_203947.jpg20220518_203940.jpg I did the light silver reflective overlay that's on the 4x4 and the RAM in the emblem. I did this only on the back. I did the RAM on the doors in the gloss white. I think I am going to replace the RAM on the tail lights to the light silver reflective ones. The light silver reflective looks like an off white sort of in regular day light.

I had some left over black decals from when I did my last Ram's wheels. I took them to a local sign shop and they scanned them then transfered to some blue reflective vinyl which I put on the wheels of my new truck.
The blue looks normal until the light hits it then it really pops.
