What did you do to your Gen3 today?

[JimsRamTruck2012]

With the way this day has gone. I would like to get into my 3rd Gen. Travel around this great nation of ours and form the largest 3rd Gen Ramvoy this country has ever seen.

well it was a freebie weekend for me, I had a friend give me the aluminum OEM 17's for my 3/4 ton with new center caps on them, and then a neighbor gave me a bull bar as well, im not a fan of the bull bar and its only on my truck to see how the fit was since it came off a 2016 ram, but it was free so I figured id rock it for a day or so, but I have something else that is supposed to be on my door step when I get home that will go in place of that bull bar, and the rims will get painted black and new tires on them

also some of you that know me well know I have my own detailing business, and so this weekend when I didn't have any clients I showed my daily some love, I shampooed all of the interior carpets and seats and got it looking and smelling amazing on the inside, on the outside I have a vendor that sent me some stuff to try out and the product can take a vehicle that has no wax on it, no water beading at all or protection and give it a protective coating that shines and repels water, dirt and when wet beads like a high dollar wax job, typically the smaller the beads you get after waxing shows a higher quality of wax and I achieved the result in the pic below with going from no protection to fully sealed and waxed in less than 5 mins believe it or not, water sheets off extremely fast and once applied you can get away with not even drying the truck as it leaves hardly any water spots and makes the paint pop quite well

I've been trying it for about 3 weeks now and needless to say I have been extremely impressed!

Can you mention the product or not yet?

I'll swing by with my truck... it smells like a dead dog.

absolutely, its a little pricy but it goes a long way and they are based out of Canada so shipping is a pain too

No way something that would be cheaper for me

Anyone remember the offset of the factory 17s trying to figure out what my new offset will be with the. Ew spacers I believe I'm at -36mm now and will be at -48mm with them but that seems awfully far out there

So y'all how much trim do you think I'll have to do for my soon to be -48mm offset. I know people have said there is some for -44mm but with the 7in lift and the 35s I'm not sure. However I trimmed my inner fender wells for the -36mm once already.

some toys came in yesterday!

both light bars are 42" curved, the black one is 560w with 5D optics and that one is going on the blue truck to replace the existing 42" 240w bar will be removed and installed on the black truck, the red one is just your average 240w bar with the standard optics and that will go in the bumper of my red 3/4 ton.

then some 4D LED pod lights that will replace the existing pods that are behind the grill of my blue truck.

and finally the first of all my black emblems for my red truck came in, the black and red hemi badges I think will be a nice accent when installed and now im just waiting on the black "ram 2500 heavy duty" emblems to come in

Where did you get the light bars from? Better show pics of install and all!
