What psi did u spray? How do u like the bumpers? Truck looks GREAT Man!!! Thanks

 

Thanks I sprayed it at 45psi and I love the bumpers just took a long time to sand the chrome.

 

looks great! i plan on doing this when it warms up a little.

 

how may coats is that and how many bottles did you use?

 

It was 2 and a bit and I wa all 4 bottles to do bumpers and rockers and a little bit of the frame

 

looks geat!! I too want to do this in a few months

 

did you spray the area underneath the fender flares?? i ordered 2 kits today. just curious about spraying under the flares and then reinstalling the flares that will be sprayed also.

your truck looks awesome man.

did you use the tape that has a wire in it? I just need to buy tape, sandpaper, body plastic, and paint.

 

and also can i see a detail pic of between the bed and the cab??? I assume you did it with the bed on?

 

Looks great. I used the same stuff tinted a light gray to coat the whole inside of my last aluminum boat. Worked great to deaden noise and provide lots of traction and easy cleanup. I'll be doing it to the boat I have now too and plan on doing the same basic thing you did to my truck as well. Works great to keep the rock chips and rust to a minumum

 

Thanks ya now i used it once and it worked i want to use it more now lol next will be my box.

i only sprayed around the fender about a inch so that they fit with a seal. I did not use the tape with wire in it i just used automotive green tape for the main line,then i found this tape and plastic combo. The tape was already connected to the plastic. the overal hight of the plastic was 22 inches, and it worked great. ill get the name of that plasit and tape combo and let you know.i also bought two kits and i only used one.

Thanks ya its not hard to do its just the prep work.

your welcome man and your truck looks awesome btw what kinda grill is that? I like the little rivet things

Thanks its just the stock grille i sprayed it too and i put those bolt in there and just spaced them evenly and color matched then to the truck as well. Better then buying a grille for a couple hundred bucks. i got the idea from some one on the forum.

Hmmmm, trying to figure out if I should just go with black on my white truck or color match the white. This looks pretty good.

can you offer up some of the advice you go? Hopefully be doing mine in about a month or so.

IMO id go black it wont show black tar off the road and stuff as much and I just like 2 tone cause its just different! If you truck is white I think black would look badass just sayin

 

thats a good idea I might steal that as well! where did you get those bolts just lowes or somewere? I actually think i might drill holes and use pop rivits maybe ill have to give it some thought

 

okay cool. i wasn't sure how they sealed together. so basically you have a one inch gap that is still paint rimming the fender???

 

Ya if not a little more.

 

thanks man. that's good to know.

 

Damn great job! One of the better DIY IMO.

 

did you use a palm sander?? that's what I am looking to use

 

Ya and 3m scuff pad and hand sand and more lol

 

looks bad ass man but i was looking at your headlights they look stock with projectors in them? where did you get those at

Sent from the man cave while taking a shit

 

Ya I made them, I took the stock headlights and retro fitted a set of hid projectors in them. Took a while but it was worth it in the end.
Here a link I posted them up a while ago.

Here's some more pictures

Here's a picture of inbetween the can and box

Heres the tape I used

And heres it folded out

 

thanks for all the pictures man! looks great. can't wait to have mine done.

 

What a mean looking truck. Nice job on everything fella! What did you use for the bolts in the grille. Stainless Allen heads and then paint them with the liner? Looks sick!

 

You just sprayed the bumpers with the plastic still on? Looks sweet, I need to do mine and my bedrails

 

there's so many questions being asked in this thread lol..I think Raptor liner is a really good mix between texture and smoothness for the outside of the truck..when I get back from deployment I want to do mine in white for a little cleaner look, for a RCLB to have that much black and black wheels it just looks "off"..I think you did a really good job on the inside and out, I'll be looking you up when I do my truck!!

Lee, hit me up at jkivett06@gmail.com whenever you do your truck in white, I'd really like to see it but not sure when I'll have the chance to be back on here after this week..

 

No problem Jason. Next week is the week. I'll borrow padre's DSLR and take some good shots of it. I'm hoping for good results :drink

 

I hear you man!! I'll zip you those pics when I get it done. There'll be plenty of pic ho'ing on here with it as well.
Are you deployed now?? Thank you for your service!
