What did you do to your TRX today?

[raww1023]

Fuel 20” Wheels and 325/60-20 Grabbers- More road friendly and adds just the right amount of aggressiveness the stock TRX was missing imo

looks nice! you have any photos straight on the back?

 

[2crazy2stop]

What kind did you go with? Is that 30 or 15?

20% expel ceramic. Blocks 70 something % of uv rays. I am going to go back and have the sunroof done too…help keep the heat down in the cab.

Do some checking before you do the sunroof. I was always told that it would shatter if you tinted the sunroof, it collects to much heat when you tint it and shatters when you shut a door. Not sure if that is true, but I don’t want to be the one to find out the hard way.

I have tinted our sunroofs for years (I’m in hot florida) and never had a problem or heard of this. Maybe a few people have dealt with this but I don’t think its an issue.

Thanks for the feedback. I’ve always wanted to do it but was scared to do it. Think I’m going to see about getting it done. Thanks

I call complete BS on that. I’ve had my Raptor sunroof tinted with 5% for over 2 years, along with my wife’s X5.

I did not know that tint collects heat. Always thought that it reflected it.
If indeed a tinted window reflects heat, it should keep the glass cooler than without tint.

Tint is on the inside of the glass so it reflects it away from the cabin and back into the glass.

Agree. But it shouldn't get stuck in the glass.

My assumption is it’s being heated from both sides…I also agree that it isn’t going to “pop” your sun roof…it would have to be CRAZY hot out to do that. Where I live we have to be more careful about breaking the windshield when u turn the defrosters on and it’s crazy cold out. Happened to me 2 years ago…sucked

Keep this years snow with you in Buffalo. You have been sending way too much my way!

Looks good! I should be getting mine back today from tint/ppf/ceramic coating, so I'll post some pics when I do. I think I heard my installer say he was going to put Llumar Stratos(ceramic) 15 on the front sides. I told him I wanted it to match the rear, and if it had to be slightly lighter or slightly darker than the rear, that I would like it to be slightly lighter. So I'm very curious how it turns out. If it's slightly darker in the front than the rear, I'm gonna lose my shit! I also had them put Air80 "clear"(ceramic) on all the rears, windshield and sunroof. I live in AZ, and it gets crazy hot here! Ceramic tint and a windshield sunshade are a must. Covercraft makes the best custom fit sunshades.

Lol! I don’t mind the snow, keeps everything white before the plows turn it into a black salty mess!

This sounds like internet rumor. I did mine in limo tint because I hate the sun

If you are putting 80% on the rear, my guess is it will still darken up the rears ever so slightly and 15% will be ok. We are putting 70% on my rear cab today and 15% on the front and it looks like it will match. Just doing the fronts you would want to go with 20%

Took the RAMBAR plate off my truck to give to my painter so that he can paint it body color/red. If I don’t like it I can always go back to the black.

What did you think about it with it off completely? I removed mine this week and I'm debating if I'm going to pull the bar completely or what.

Bought a truck off the lot after the guy that ordered it died. So I have a dead guys truck. He liked the sun and look what happened….
