Had my son do my hood, roof and tailgate a while back. Tonight he did my grille and bumper to finish it off.
That looks great! I've had a few Mopars with stripes! I love it
Installed Carven 5” chrome exhaust tips tonight. Took all of half hour. Easy peasy. Will get a pic tomorrow in the sunlight.
I did mine with Areo 5 in. tips, couldn't find anyone with Carven in stock. I'll post pictures later!

Hauled our new TV for our room home! Now to mount that big thing on the wall. We moved all of our other 55" tvs around. Our Samsung bedroom one went to the living room. The Equios got moved to the play room and the 42" playroom tv is replacing my 32" in the garage.

Big Yella has had some "paint issues' since I got it. The passenger door had some clear coat peeling that's gotten worse over the last four years, the lower front clip was faded and chipped, and apparently you can't get a Detonator Yellow front grille for an '09.

So, after some color-blind fool rear-ended me, I figured I'd get it all done at once:

Since I've made the decision to keep it, there's more to be done. Got a bunch of interior pieces out now changing the colors to match the outside. We'll see how that comes out.

Continuing to upgrade the lowly Tradesman dually with the easiest mod/addition yet. The fold flat floor. Thanks much to @BlownGP for the great deal on it in the For Sale section! The center bolt holes are in the floor under a carpet cutout even though the dually has a rear bench instead of the 60/40. Simple matter of a couple of M12-1.75 x40 bolts and 4 washers. 1/8" washers needed under the center mounts because they would normally go on top of the seat mounts that aren't there with the bench. Touched up the bolts and washers with a black paint pen after the install for a factory look. I still need to grab a couple of snaps for the hold down straps to complete the install. No clue why they don't put this in every trim level right from the start.

I'm not sure either, mine is an SLT and came with covers over the storage areas instead of the fold-flat. Didn't care for those, so I did the same thing - found one for sale on here and got it installed. Still have those lids in the garage if anyone wants them.

Never got around to getting the snaps, but with the seat down, I don't see the need. I still have those lids if anyone needs them.
