What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

So glad I went straight to OEM LED. So happy every time I drive in the dark coz I can see better. And I’m about to install DD SS3 Pro…just waiting for the garage to warm while I’m having some Koffee and Beer.

 

Yeah I can't wait to see how much of an improvement night driving will be compared to the Morimotos. Did you have to tweak the headlamps in any way after installation, or were they pretty spot on as is?

 

Yes gonna do disc when I go LT

 

A customers rig we just wrapped with a custom printed color. It is the C4 fab give away truck he wanted to make it his own so what better way than a custom color wrap.

 

Looks good! How much does it cost to wrap a truck like this? Just a basic color like black

 

Finally got my wheels mounted up that have been in the garage for a month! Tried to warranty a bad TPMS sensor a while back and got grief from the dealer and then a bullshit fix that lasted 1 day. Rather than pursuing it, I said F it and just bought the entire Autel TS508 handheld and 4 new sensors, cloned my OEM's and now everything works beautifully.

 

Just a tad to aim them down. I know they’re so bright and doesn’t want to blind anyone. Specially when the bed is loaded.

 

Made it 22.5 years

 

Thanx dude! This was $2,700 basic color would be a little cheaper. It varies with each vehicle

 

I've got a 2nd gen with some paint fade on the roof--have y'all had anyone try to paint match just for specific areas? Or is the look just a little too off from the paint?

 

That's not bad at all!!

 

paint matching is very hard because things like weathering factor in. So the roof might have a slightly lighter tone than the sides

 

Thanks, yeah that makes sense. Maybe I can finally justify a RTT then Or just wait for other scratches to pile up and do the whole thing

 

Depending on the color maybe @KB_TX could try a two-tone to eliminate the fade.

 

Your post beat mine ^^^

 

Or go with a contrasting color, light if the paint is dark, dark if the paint is light. You end up with a unique looking truck and no worries about matching the paint. Or use vinyl.

 

I like this idea but I also like my speedway blue Black could work but I have a hard time envisioning anything else

 

Love the color he chose. Happy to learn it isn't a too ridiculous of a cost. Especially for complete coverage.
But...
I have heard that the vinyl wraps only last about 3 years tops. I don't know what that means exactly, like do they fall off; start bubbling; melt; or just fade out terribly? So keep us up to date on how this one wears in the coming years.

 

Finally got my @CaliRaisedLed switch panel installed. Just a little trimming required to get the two upper outside switches placed.

all aftermarket switches are AOB and backlit light blue to perfectly match the factory light blue backlight. Camera switch however is not and I’ll probably disconnect the backlight

wired up my new fog lights
