Want to do mine the same color? We can be Twinsies.

 

Color is discontinued.

$17 3m 1080 g364 Gloss Fiery Orange 5ft x 1ft (5 sq/ft) Car Wrap Vinyl Film

3m 1080 g364 Gloss fiery orange. Hit Amazon and order up soon. You'll want st lease 5x60ft. I'm happy to help and get some more practice, but it ain't gonna be perfect.

 

I'd sure as hell hope so!

 

I have the TRD Pro lift waiting for install, tomorrow my JBA UCA’s show up. I’m trying to decide between Dakar’s and the Icon RXT leaf pack to complete the package. I don’t have any weight in the rear so I’ll probably leave the extra leaf out. Are you happy with the RXT leaf pack ride and where did you order from?

 

So, anyone know who Steel Panther is?

 

Haven't really had an opportunity to put it through any paces yet except for driving to the store to grab some groceries and down the washboard rutted road that goes to our house. Brief first impressions are way less body roll on cornering, no nose diving on hard braking, the annoying axle wrap thunk when coming to a stop is no more and it seems to handle the washboard and bumps pretty decently. Its a firmer ride than a stock OR but not uncomfortable by any stretch.

I've never run Dakar's so I have no reference but so far I'm happy with the RXT's. I ordered from Wheelers. Talk to Josh.

 

Yes

 

I'm trying to go to their show in Vegas in a few weeks

 

Nice, that should be a decent concert.

 

House of blues in vegas? Fuck yes it will be

 

Yah that place is a good time. Well Vegas in general.

 

It will be my first time in Vegas being 21

 

Well live it up then man.

 

I’m in the same boat, I have watched some videos and such but still no real confidence in getting it 100% completed on my own with out looking like crap. From checking Amazon it looks to be around $500 for the vinyl for that color at least I’m sure colors vary price. Then misc tools for cutting, heat gun, and so on.

 

I spent $488 originally for 5x50ft which is technically enough to do the whole truck, but plan on screwing something up along the way.

 

Anybody use heat shrink terminals? Like, crimp it & then heat gun it because the shrink is part of the crimp... are they good or just a gimmick?

I'm wondering if it pays to order from Amazon or not.

I'm also trying to get my head around what to run in the rear.
The app notes can be so damn confusing, all I want is better leaves with a lift of under 2 inches.

Dakars say 2" for 3rd gen but remove the 3rd leaf for a 15mm drop, which works out to a 1.4" lift
Icon says 1.875" but doesn't differentiate between 3rd and 2nd gen, whereas OME says there is a .75" difference between the two.
So either the Icon would be 1.125" or the 1.875"... or somewhere in between.

Dakars are also waaaaay more affordable though. But I don't get to wave around my Icon street cred... Decisions, decisions.
