What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Suspense always puts it on the edge of my seat.

 

Noticed it this morning. Must have gotten it yesterday when parked at elementary school to pickup my kid. If adult did it, i would be mad but if a kid did it, i guess I wouldn’t be too mad.

What/how do you recommend i fix this?

 

Ugly.

 

Dude, that's deep! I'd be mad either way.

 

Grr my some threw a rock yesterday with the weed eater and whacked my tailgate. I didn’t say anything to him it just wasn’t worth the stress on him. He was just working. If it’s a kid there ain’t much of a point...an adult on the other hand.
I will explain to him before the next time to be careful around the vehicles.

 

I would be mad either way. Looks like someone took a screwdriver to the paint on your truck. Doesn’t look like an accident to me. That’s deep!

 

New here, but started to seriouslly build out my back seats. Had a utility package SR so no seats at all right now. Trying to be as frugal as I can. I just spent $230 or so on Back ordered parts. Got the seats/headrest and center console for free. About $350 in the rest of the stuff, but waiting on most of it.

Got the first seatbelt installed here, kinda went into it blind.

Color doesn't match but hey, I'm mostly building it so I can get my son a spot in the backseat to sit in in a car seat.

 

I had something similar. Bodyshop was able to tape off at the crease and paint the top part without removing the tailgate.

 

Sometimes it's better to be lucky than to be good:

 

Now look what you made me go and do. I just bought the Molle pouch from your video because it is .5” smaller on length and width than the one I used.
Helpful video. I was so caught up with trying to make use of the straps that I never considered using zip ties. Good stuff.

 

Added some more rock lights to the corners

 

How can i repair/fix this?

 

I would take it to a body shop and get it fixed properly. Total cost estimate would dictate weather or not I turned it in to the insurance or not.

 

Finally got the Maggie installed. This was just before the initial test drive and fluid top off.

 

That's either a heavy touch up paint job that you'll see forever, or a professional repaint.

By any chance, has a bike been in the back of your truck? That scar is typically caused by a handlebar hanging over the bedside. (edit: don't ask me how I know)

 

Here they are! Installation was not fun but man are they great so far. Only had em on for a few hours now but they already seem to be forming to the seats better and the wrinkles are smoothing out.

 

I don’t carry bikes. I’m pretty sure i got this yesterday at kid’s school parking lot.

 

Got my bronzers on today

 

Thanks for taking the time to post your results. They look great! I still haven't heard back if they have a version that will work with the seat adjustment but I may go ahead and do the back seats because that is where the dogs are and they are supposedly much easier to clean.

Really looks great !

 

Just a suggestion. Check out this company, redlinegoods.com .
I just purchased 2x leather boots and centre console arm rest cover. Quality is top notch. Working on installing this weekend.

Edit: centre console cover installed. I layered some foam underneath 1st.
