    Hey guys just posting about a few recent mods I've done. I was looking for a sort of rocker panel protection and saw that a lot of people used Bedliner along the lower portion of their truck. For the sake of something temporary, I came across a product called Trimbrite body guard. Has held up very well for over a month with car washes and highway driving. Another thing I did was color match the chrome grille to the truck, since the chrome was pretty chipped and scuffed. The match isn't perfect but overall I am happy with how it turned out. Only time will tell in regards to durability. If yall have any questions or anything feel free, I am positing this because I did so much research into both of these and thought I'd share my experience

    Is the trimbrite body guard you used the black strip on the bottom? I was thinking about using the trimbrite clear for the rockers on mine. With no mud flaps and wide tires, I have a lot of rock chips in those areas.
