That's a nice looking painted garage floor.  Did you do it yourself?  What product did you use?

Thanks! I did not do it myself. Had a local company coat the floor. Turned out real nice

Wasn’t feeling the brown faux wood grain in my RST, so picked up some vinyl, like the way it came out.

Where did you order the vinyl to wrap the wood grain?

It’s 3M 1080 black carbon fiber vinyl, purchased the 1ft by 5ft sheet on Amazon.  Cost was about $25, was supposed to come with “tools” but I never received any.

 

One thing to mention, had to run the “fibers” of the vinyl the other direction on the passenger side trim because it’s a mirror of the drivers side pictured above.  The reason why is because the vinyl was not wide enough to cover the piece of trim when rotated 90d, the trim is ~14-15” wide, the vinyl is 12” wide.  Not a super big deal, but will change it eventually so that they match.

That looks nice! Would you mind sharing the part numbers (or links) of the items used? How hard was the install?

Sure thing!

 

The puddle lights are 84408373, they are really easy.  You just need a small flat head screwdriver and takes a few minutes.

 

The sill plates are 84359684.  A little more involved install, my buddy did it really quickly but he has plenty of experience with care electronics installs.  There is a thread on here with the instructions for the install.

 

The emblem  is 84741559.  Getting the old emblem off is the only hard part, the wiring just plugs into your driver's side light.

 

Hope this helps!

You don't have to remove them fortunately, you use a small screwdriver to pop the lamp out and remove the plug, the new ones just plug in and are popped in place. Super easy.

Installed the Roto Fab cold air intake! Directions were easy to understand and follow, what a wonderful quality Edition to the truck.

Well done and looks awesome. I'm on the fence of getting that kit. I'll be interested to know if you notice any mpg improvement or better response with the engine.

    • There are probably a few threads talking about fuel mileage but this one seemed to fit the stats I have seen based on my typical local driven route but with different outcomes based on different seasons/temperatures. I have a few hundred pounds of items that consistently ride on the truck at all times such as a bak flip cover, rubber bed mat, tools and extra fuel so I would be something over 8100 lb without me in the truck. All these examples are based on a 100 mile round trip to a town plus running around town so maybe 110 to 120 miles in total for a trip. Using regular fuel and I assume it always has some ethanol in it but don't know the percentage they blend in. Also speed wise I am going at 62 mph and non aggressive driving although less speed yet if its crappy winter condition roads. I am going by an initial reset of the computer generated fuel use numbers averaged over a couple of thousand miles or so for each weather/season so they may be more optimistic then actual hand calculated numbers. Basically this is painting a picture of doing the same drive but seasonal conditions and temperature being the major variable to the end result. Oh and although I am in Alberta Canada, I am converting it to miles per US gallon so there is no confusion.    So winter time it gets cold here, no real surprise there and the roads can be clear at times but also often have packed rough snow or are are driving through loose snow ( they do a poor job of plowing the highways ) and yes this includes the extra idle engine time due to trying not to freeze ones butt off. 12.7 mpg is what I was getting during the winter months on average.    Then during the spring when it was around the freezing point and the highways are clear of snow, I was getting around 14.25 mpg.   Summer time, I have been getting around 15.15 on average but certainly some of the trips showed quite a bit better fuel mileage, so much depended on how much or little I had driven around town and number of engine restarts after sitting for a while at each location. But stating a best fuel mileage trip to town pretending that is what the truck gets on average is fooling ones self for sure !.      As I said in a different post, I had driven a 645 mile trip over a couple of days stint to a different destination then these other daily to town examples above, and was done during the summer with nice weather and not bucking a head wind, also keeping at 62 mph and its a rolling landscape type highway drive ( this isn't southern Alberta or Saskatchewan flat lands ) Hand calculated fuel mileage in this case though and it came out to 17.65
