    I'm not familiar with the the UTSA programs, specifically, but you really can't go wrong with a security-specific degree from any decent institution. During your studies, you'll likely stumble across the niche you'll want to pursue afterwards. The recommendation I make to all of the junior engineers and analysts I mentor is to start with a very technical position in order to establish a solid foundation for whatever other area you specialize in later. Be it threat analysis, incident response, policy development, compliance, counterintelligence, forensics, etc. -- they all rely on that initial technical foundation to really excel. Perhaps keep that in mind as you begin your internship and job searches later down the road.

    Like Op19, I could probably go on for hours, as well. Feel free to PM with any questions in the future. Good luck, have fun!

    It's a royal PITA when the film melts to the lens. I DON'T recommend it for lights that get toasty lenses. Acetone and razor blade will remove.

    That is good to know. I got some to try but didn’t like the color. I wanted a reddish tint, but the ones I posted looked super orange once on.

    Forward facing red on the front is illegal on federal and most state highways. Not my business but JSYK. It usually gets pulled off during the roadside stop by the owner.

    Good question!

    My melty fun was on my subie with bulb conversion.

    Amber LaminX over factory fogs, they go on fairly easy. However I have had issues with them having a few bubbles in the vinyl. I may redo them to get it right this time.

    It's reccomended by LaminX that the vehicle be in motion if the fog lights are on with the film to keep from melting.

    Did you replace the fog light housing with the sR5 one's? Or do the 2020s come with those already fitted on there?

    Those are the stock 2020 fogs. Just with yellow lamin-x over the lenses.

    Sorry, I meant to ask about the "Fog Bezels", the black plastic that surrounds the fog lights.

    She got ceramic coated, under coated and interior protection today. Still glad I removed the OR stickers. I really like it without.

    Not sure what it is yet. I haven’t gotten under the truck and I didn’t ask. I do know it’s got a lifetime warranty and is checked at every one of my maintenance periods. If it needs touched up or replaced the company that did it is notified and it gets touched up or replaced.

    Had it not been part of the deal when I bought the truck I probably would have done fluid film myself. For the record. There isn’t anyone around here who does non-commercial fluid film applications, so I wouldn’t have much choice. We’ll see how it works out.

    That's it, I'm convinced, taking my bed stickers off. That looks really good.
