    Picked up a grey Leer 180 on craigslist. Not excited about paying for a paintjob right away, so might attempt my first vinyl wrap. Exploring some color options with photoshop below. Any opinions? Please share

    Option A - vinyl wrap shell black to match truck

    I was just in the same situation recently. Got a MGM Leer 100R for $450 but my truck is MBM. I wound up Raptor lining the shell. It looks better - I really like the textured look - but I'm going to take it back off and over spray it with black to darken it up.

    Thanks might be another option. I like the textured, matte look too. Keeps the look of a truck and not a big SUV

    Another upside to the bed liner is cost. I only used 1/4 of the kit I bought for $110 to spray the whole thing

    E8778DCF-CC94-445C-9D58-55E717F1C208.jpg Rustoleum Spray-can flat black, followed by their spray-can bedliner. Bedliner for the cap looks decent, and you won’t care one bit about scratching anything.

    The flip up side windows are a great feature, I love mine. You can buy the Leer triangle emblems on eBay for less than $20. to complete the look.

    Thanks I ordered these on etsy. Curious if I need to sand down the little spot they go on? Or should I add some extra spray adhesive?

    I replaced mine, put them right on the smooth paint about a year ago, they are still there.
