    I would suggest an actual clear coat but I guess that just depends on your abilities or if you have a buddy that can spray it. Rattle can probably wouldn't turn out with the best results in my opinion.

    I just know when I did mine they looked great but over the last year I can see a lite haziness coming back like when small scratches all over acrylic.

    Word. I used a kit similar to this years ago on my old car and it looked great at first but a few months later it looked worse than it originally was. Since then I've been kinda skeptical about these restoration kits

    New Granite Alloy wheels in anthracite. Just got em on 1 hour ago.
    Waited 2 months for them. They're a great deal.

    LA Tint in Manassas off 28. Cost me $115 which I thought was a little high, but this type of tint seems to be much nicer than what I had put on years ago. I had my Colorado done in 07 for $75, and my Tacoma before that was $75 as well. But neither were ceramic tint. So I don't know. He did a good job though. Less than 20 minutes.

    This is the tint they installed. I know nothing about tint really but from what I read up on it while waiting for it to get done it's supposed to be the best on the market. I could have gone with a cheaper tint and saved a few bucks, but elected not to. Comes with a lifetime warranty too.

    I was hoping my Curt hitch would have come in today as its really nice out and I got done with work at noon. Would have been perfect to get that knocked out. But no dice.

    I added a PrinSu Cabrac over the weekend. I like it a lot. :thumbsup:

    It plays nice with my Sat radio too. Not a single dropout after a weekend of driving around with the rack in place.

    This weekend I pulled my carpet, lined the floor with 20 sq/ft of Dynamat, and installed vinyl flooring. Not sure if its a placebo effect or not but it seems quieter in the cab now. There are no holes for the mat anchors for the Weathertech mats but so far they seem to be staying put pretty well. I still have the anchors so if I need to cut a hole and throw a grommet in there I have the option.
