We bought pretty much exactly the same truck at almost the same time and have very similar builds planned.

And we both live in austin!

Haydenatx;2018258 Planned Mods: Black out Fenders [/QUOTE said:
How do you plan to black out the fenders? I'm planning on doing the same thing and am debating between Line-x and vinyl wrap. Leaning towards the line-x as I tend to spend time off the beaten path and it would be more durable.

I'm also thinking about doing the rear bumper like the early 5th gens as they tend to get pretty scratched up loading and unloading things.

Not sure about the front.

I was thinking vinyl for the fenders but I think that might be pricey. Is Line X a spray on solution? I would prefer a more durable solution so that might be a good route to go. I'm trying to avoid using plasti dip at all costs.:decision:

Since you are saying "at all costs", then just go to an auto painter and have them paint it for you! Done!

Maybe I should rephrase... I'd like to do it without plastic dip but do it affordably so I can spend all my money on other mods :cool:
 
Line-x is spray on. It's seriously HD stuff. It's used as bed liner on trucks and is also used in military structures to improve bomb resistance.

I've used it in several different ways on past vehicles culminating in me spraying the whole inside of my jeep tub and roll bars. It looks great for years.

I'm pretty sure that's the path I'm going.

Is it something you would pay someone to do for you? How much would that cost approximately?
 
Hayden! Nice build so far. My only concerns with LineX are that it doesn't adhere to plastic as well as it does to metal and you generally have to remove the parts that you want to coat. Not a huge deal but something to know nonetheless.

If you're interested in doing vinyl, Ruthless Wraps did a great job on mine and were very reasonable on the cost.
 
Good Info on ruthless Wraps. I've never sprayed plastic with Line-X Good info.

If you decide to go the painted route it cost me about 600 for 4 flares on my 4th gen. 2 stage satin black. Matches "black magic" powder coat really well...

 
Hey guys, I'd love to meet up with you and provide assistance as necessary on recovery or with modifications, but I don't off road for sport. I off road to get to my sports. :) I'm a rock climber and generally take the least difficult path to my climbing destination which at times can be pretty burly.

I've got a pretty well stocked garage for mods and a big driveway, but I travel a lot and haven't been home much. I also have a military duece and a half with a pto driven winch and 20K rated hitch for recovery if you get really stuck.

Me too, once I get my skids installed and once it stops raining for more than day or two!
