Going to do one more touch up coat when it's a little darker out so I can shine a light on it. Black on black on some more black is super hard to see when everything shines.

I'm guessing it was a "roll on"... Take a look at the end of my build. I have photos on mine being sprayed in my driveway. Price for price the home roll on kits arent bad, but mine i think retails around $200-250 for a kit. I havent seen many roll on kits in person so i dont know what to think, but i have seen pics and for a garage job it doesnt look bad at all.

 

Also what did you use for for prep, cleaning, sanding?

Yup- definitely a roll on. Looks like you did a good job on your spray-on. I like the flat, pressed even look. I got quoted at a few shops, but everything in So Cal is over priced... So for $59, I settled for the herculiner and did it myself.

 

There's one or two "clumpy" spots, but for the most part, you really have to look and feel it carefully to be able to determine its a roll-on. That's another thing- it does feel rubbery... not grained and embedded like spray-ons. I can live with it. Still better than a drop-in liner, I believe haha

 

Totally sick truck btw. Tasteful additions for sure.

Well the drop in plastic has one advantage that roll on or spray in dont. It may wear down your paint but it prevents in nox dents. Drop in something heavy and the roll on won't prevent a dent

What bulb trade number is the ones you used for the cargo light? "2323" is the LED type that is mounted on the bulb. I would like to order a set myself.

Thanks

Thanks im lucky its been trouble free. This is the only vehicle i have left stock. I probably will start doing some things to it but ive been extremely happy the way it is. I have thought about performance mods but the 6.2 is plenty powerful straight out of the box.

Curious how you like the G2? I may get one this week and just curious of your thoughts on it.

 

Thanks

I like it, but with the amount of stuff I move in and out of the bed (tools, jugs and boxes) it's not practical to always be putting the lift gate down. Had I taken more of my actual needs into account, I would've got the Fold-A-Cover which is why I'm trying to sell my G2
