    Covered in stickers and chrome stick-ons for extra horse torques and foot powers. Icon sticker gets me tons of travel, dozens of milimeters.
    I'd hit up a vinyl vehicle-wrap installer near me.

    Ditto on the Crawlorado pre-cut for the 2nd Gen, good product. Its 3M film and you could get some and make your own - but if you're not an experienced pro cutter/installer, the pre-cut is the way to go. The local guy in our industrial area where I work wanted $200 to invent one (3M) and install it - $50 to install the Crawlorado pre-cut. So I decided to read up on the internet and go for it.

    Be sure to clean the daylights out of the area where you are going to float the film - I used a cleaner, white vinegar, and rubbing alcohol in stages to be absolutely sure. Get a good recipe for the "floater" fluid, make plenty and use it - an absolute necessity. The film is very forgiving if you've got it floating - and you will eventually prevail.

    You can install it your self I had wrap my whole truck before on my own super easy. Just order some from 3m and cut and test fit and heat it up and apply

    thanks for the advice.

    but my patience level will probably destroy the decal, so i will most likely get it pro done.
