    Had a 2002 DC, now a 2004 DC.
    Excited to see how it turns out! I plan to do my double cab this spring. There is a pretty good group on Facebook, too. Lots of good information there. Post lots of pictures as you do it!

    Well then at least think hard about the color. The further from black it goes, the more tacky the unpainted parts will look (engine bay, pillars, etc)

    I didn't move the bed. I sanded in the gap, sprayed adhesion promotion and then stuck the nozzle close and angles it both ways. It's the original color, so you cast tell
