    I believe it’s the tech package that gets you the matched bumper. I have the same bumper, for now...

    Not the tech package as I had the color matched bumper without the package.

    I actually believe it is standard on the OR package .

    Installed my Blazing Blue Pearl 3D letters and I like these much better than the vinyl ones. I installed these right on top of the vinyl after cleaning the vinyl surface and allowing to re-dry. 1st photo is 1/2 way during install to show the difference. Last two show fully installed.

    Done been washed and waxed for the final time this year. Here comes the snow, and wind, and cold, and me bitching and moaning about it.

    Clean! I clay bared and waxed mine last month. I have same truck but A/T. Hoping to get Pro grill delivered this week. Makes a huge difference! Sport grill with chrome bezel is ugly imo. Hey, did you install hood vinyl yourself? Source? Difficulty?

    I picked up some sort of bug splatter on a trip to Atlantic Beach NC this summer. Didn't notice it, as truck was parked for a couple of weeks, and then when I washed it it was a major stain. Tried polishing to no avail. Right under mirror on driver side door. I am really hoping clay bar might take it off. Kind of lost as to what to use on it. Possibly may need to apply some 1500-2000 wet sand paper to clean up the damaged clearcoat. Just sorry I didn't see it when it was fresh. Only flaw on my nearly 3 year old truck.

    Sandpaper...brave man! I discovered a small paint chip on front of hood...gonna get dr color chip. Good results in the past. Bound to happen sooner or later. Truck is 2.5 mo old. Certainly not the last blemish. I'm OCD as hell, but OCD is a Super Power!
