    Anyone have any experience painting or wrapping their camper shell? I just got this silver one from fb marketplace. I’m thinking of color matching to red or going black to match the trim. At the moment I don’t hate silver on red but I want to evaluate options.
    Did you do it yourself or get it done professionally? Cost, time estimates, difficulty, etc. Any details you can provide are appreciated.

    My vote: Paint it.

    DYI if your in to that. I've repainted one. Single stage Nasson, HF gun and a Saturday. Would do it again in an instant.


    Even in these times, I wouldn't think a shop be too bad on cost. Match the materials and level of job to age/condition of truck. Could be an in-by-9-out-by-5 type of job if you removed glass before hand.
