So far I drove the 2017 from NJ to NH/ME, and got a recall notice for the cruise control which I don't use. As well as filled the 2012 with fuel.

Update to my post from yesterday, the shocks are now installed in the correct locations and wow, what a difference! Who would have thought?

Finally got some sun and also cleaned the wheels and put on tire shine. So to recap. I’m now over 20 hours total time but I did it over a week so I wasn’t rushing and took my time. Anyway my frist step was to clay it with Mothers speed clay 2.0 (synthetic clay) after that I did Adams polishes 3 step paint correction with a porter cable random orbital, and then after all that I installed Adams Polishes Paint Ceramic Coating. Once that cured for 2 days I applied Adams Ceramic Boost. It was a whole lot of work but I feel proud of the results. I can say the pics absolutely do not do the shine justice. I’m still seeing spots from the sun reflectin off the paint lol. Here are the pics.

Thanks guys. When I stepped out of the truck and first saw it in some real sun my thought was “holy hell that is ridiculous”

I wouldn’t mind sitting in the garage staring but it’s much cooler in the house and the car is currently dirty and that would bug me. I am enjoying some beer and keep looking at the pics of the shine

Looks good. Can you cut me one in white for my rear tailgate emblem? It's an 2018.
How much would you charge for 2 of them?

Got the rear, and surprise the front and rear ram emblem are different, to get a idea it was roughly 3 hrs of work from drawing to printing to placing 2 vinyls onto the emblem. I would say probably 11 bucks, 5 bucks per front/back and 1 buck to cover shipping. **** I will even give you 2 sets in case you freakout and mess up your 1st set. I know my first vinyl sticker application - it didnt turn out the way i wanted it too

I may do a USA red white blue theme one, white on top and the bottom under the nose a red and blue piece to left/right.

 

[FXCLM5]

Blue and silver? To match?

which parts blue and which parts silver are you thinking about on the emblem itself? the silver may not pop out that much cuz it has a chrome bezel

 

[NoveskeFan]

@FXCLM5 do you have or know of a vinyl that matches or is close to Copperhead Pearl or anodized orange? Would love to stick a set to my steering wheel...if that’s something you can make.

Thanks!! Just bilsten 5100’s set at 2.1 with 295/60/20 tires.

They do make color coded vinyl, but its expensive, i have been thinking bout buying the pearl white and vinyl wrapping my bumpers - but its expensive!

And they always state it may not match 100% because they will match the color code from oem. But the paint on your vehicle has sat in the sun already and the metallic flake may be heavier or lighter etc.

Ideally if you wanted a custom color, you could ship me the material and I can cut it directly for you. I dont have a orange right now that pops like that copperhead, just more simple orange.

If it works, I’d leave the silver alone and just fill the black with the blue body color
