Well, I just finished up wrapping my black TRX in 3M Matte Dark Grey vinyl. I also added the following small touches:

• Wrapped stock beauty rings on the wheels in matte black and changed to black lug nuts
• Wrapped front grille "RAM" emblem in matte red
• Wrapped Edges of "RAM" on tailgate in matte red
• Painted edges of "TRX" and "4x4" red (and just noticed I must have been wearing one shoe because both are crooked, so I get to re-mount those)
• Distress flag underlay on tailgate
• Tinted corner lights on mirrors
• Tinted corner deflector and cut out a "TRX" logo there
• Added "Demon Eyes" from Oracle Lighting
• Retrax MX Tonneau Cover (VERY minimal modification needed to clear bolts on top of Rambar. Just needed to notch out spots for bolt heads with a Dremmel.)

Let me know what you guys think!

I’m a fan of the stock black. Nice job though as long as you’re a fan of that look that’s all that matters.

looks great....

What is your thought on how the wrap on the front Ram emblem will hold up over time?

I LOVE black trucks/cars when they are clean! No better color IMO. However, trying to KEEP them clean is a constant nightmare.

Not really sure. I figured of it starts getting beat up, I can tear it off and just have it back to stock.

Looks very nice. Did you add the Ram Bar or did your truck come with it? I’m thinking about that bed cover you have but saw someone say they thought it may not work with the factory installed bar because the bolts are on top. Did you have to modify it?
