Makes me want to think about wrappin mine again!!

 

How much does it cost to get a truck wrapped like that? Does it ever start peeling?

 

I got it priced out between 22-2500, depending on which company I went with.

I was looking at doing it a couple months ago...matte black just like that one...decided to get a lift and a bumper instead.

Don't know about it peeling. I've never talked to anyone that actually had it done.

 

I think I'm going to get just my hood wrapped matte black here soon and judge if I like it or not

 

What does wrapping your truck do ? Just a quick color change
Or adds protection to the paint ?

 

it's a paint job that can be removed when you want it to. Down side is it can peel and scratch very easily, especially if you're in the woods/mudding/off-roadin/etc.

 

I wrapped the top of my cab with the 3M Vinyl Wrap in matte black. It looked good. I removed it when I had my whole truck Line-Xed and it removed my paint up in big sections. Glad I was having it sprayed. Having my truck Line-Xed was only $2K cant believe it was cheaper than the price you got to wrap your truck.

 

love that look! Does it fade any?

 

This

And this.

Like Zach said, that does look really good. I am surprised it was cheaper though like you said!

 

It is Line-X Premier with a UV top coat. They acutally spray the Line-x material and then spray a top coat that can be color matched to any color you like. All you need is the paint code. The top coat offers a UV coating that will not fade. It will not fade any faster than regular paint with a clear coat.

 

Yeah I was suprised when I heard the estimate for the Wrap.....

 

How much weight did the line x add to the truck?

 

Here is the link to my Line-x page. It added around 80 lbs to my truck.

Nice!

 

80 pounds is nothing. That's pretty awesome.

 

Braves game Saturday!

 

If I wasn't going on that trail ride @ tray mtn and having a camping trip after we would've been down!

 

I started talkin to the girlfriend about it a couple days ago. Just ended up buyin the ticket last night. First game of the season for us. I usually only go to 1 or 2 a year.

 

We went last Wednesday for a day game against the Marlins and got a few autographs before the game. We'll definitely be making it to 3-4 more. We usually tailgate until right before the game, then go in, but we had my 7 yr old nephew with us, so we just went straight in and the place was empty. It was so easy getting autographs! Being a day game also helped lol. We need to all plan to tailgate at one this season!

I was just about to suggest a M&G/tailgating event haha
