    Installed tailgate stickers last week. You can get "domed" plastic letters or thin vinyl 3M stickers. I chose matte black stickers from eBay for about $20. I ordered them in flat black. The flat black looks really cool on the Blazing Blue. Also painted (not plastidipped) door and tailgate emblems flat black. Starting to come together! Grill is next.

    I didn't read all 94! pages but someone was asking about the diff between Gen2 blue and Gen3. The Gen3 is growing on me. Thought it was too bright but blacking out emblems, etc helps break it up a little.

    The lighting really makes a difference but the Gen3 is a brighter blue.

    That's @rrentrop. If you like that, you NEED all his vinyl. And white looks amazing on the BBP as well.

    It's a moral imperative.

    Agreed. Top quality. Clear directions. Very sticky. Use the soapy water liberally and prep surface well

    Or their website

    BBP is much closer to the old Speedway Blue color on the early 2nd gen, than the darker Nautical Blue Metallic or Blue Ribbon Metallic colors of the late 2nd gens, so it depends on which 2nd gen blue you're comparing it to. I loved the speedway blue for a long time, when I saw they changed the blue color for the 3rd gens back to a brighter blue I was ecstatic.

    Welcome to TW!

    I agree BBP is the best color, but I'm not a fan of inferno.

    @hellaflushca That's a heck of a deal! I'm still deciding what lift I wanna go with. How's the grip/traction on those pro comps? Nice looking truck btw!
