    Thank you for that info!

    Also to note, I am not in a show truck, so I might do this in rattle can. Can anyone link that place to get factory colors in aerosol? I am not a professional, but I also dont want to use Home Depot "Gloss White". I would be ok with a decent attempt at a spray paint job

    White plastidip is actually remarkably similar to 040 Super White. I had my grille surround painted like that for a couple years and unless I told you, you wouldn't have noticed.

    Vinyl wrap would be fairly cheap and easy to do

    The paint as is, is already chipping on the edges. Id want to take that down, and then I could try paint or a wrap

    If you gotta do the prep anyways, may as well paint.

    I get off work at midnight. I could easily go and set up my RTT, break out some mountain house, and be way more comfortable than the other guys on the sidewalk :rofl:

    I might drive by when I get off work just to see what the line looks like

    You won't be able to stand in line if you're in your RTT... just saying.

    Why not just park on the sidewalk when they open? People will scatter out of your way and you can walk right in. Since you're not scared of the Police and all.

    If you can successfully sleep in your RTT while staying in line then I'll buy you Chick-fil-A
