Truck Update: Rewrapped the Rex

[TReX-RAM]

Thanks! It's actually a Body Armor 4x4 bumper. It was a pain to prep for paint and wrap. If I was just going to paint, it wouldn't be terrible, but when you wrap it, you need nice clean edges/transitions. Those welds all had to be ground down and leveled out. Got it free from one of our suppliers, so can't really complain.

I didn’t even think about the welds and transitions on the bumper. What a pain in the a$$ that would have been to grind em all down for a wrap job. I am digging the BA bumper a lot.

That TRX logo light is awesome - where did you get that?

How did you wire the rear trex puddle lights?

I've done all of the work on my truck myself. I always like trying stuff I haven't done before just to see if I can do it. Had I tried any body work before this, I'd have had a shop do it. If you aren't experienced, it is a nightmare. It is truly an art form, for sure. I have a LOT of respect for those who do it and do it well.

The grille was a nail-biter, because the replacement stock grille was on national backorder at the time! I basically cut out the factory mesh from the inside, and trimmed down a T-Rex Grille made for a regular Ram 1500.

That I made. Cut it out of tinted vinyl.

How did you wire the rear trex puddle lights?

That was so long ago, I actually have a hard time remembering! Sorry! I know there are lights in the door, so I would bet that I probably just kept testing wires until I found one that was hot when the door was open.

@SRG_Joe is selling these. Might be worth checking out if youre looking for a new grille design. Truck looks badass with the orange and black
