I just quoted my question... :laughing1:

So do you have to disassemble a lot of the truck? Take off the door handles, roof rack, side mirrors, etc?

O yes i had to take everything off, even the handles to the tail gate. But u haveto do that if u want a good wrap. Ive seen some wraps were they didnt take off anything and u can really tell its a vinyl wrap, hate to boast but u cant tell mine is a wrap.

How do you think the price compares to getting a new paint job?

Selling the lift kit currently on your truck won't get you your truck wrapped :hands:

Well for me it was way cheaper bc like i said i got hooked up with my vinyl. But before i did that i got quoted for matte black and they wanted 3000, for a full wrap and they would need my truck for a week. So its the same i guess. But who ever wants to do this i would only charge u for the vinyl if u flew me out and gave me a place to stay for a couple days. Lol

Its tricky thats for sure. And very time consuming, i think i proboly had 50+ hrs in my truck bc i tore everything off that could come off so i would get a clean wrap. Cost wise its about the same as a paint job and thats depending who u go too.

can you take it off if you get tired of it? and if so does the original paint get ruined? is this how most people get those matte paint jobs?

You could just rip it off if you get tired of it. and it actually protects the original paint.
I would do this over actually painting the truck a matte color.

O yeah for deffenatly do this over painting the truck matte. No sticky resido like a sticker and if u ever get into a fender bender, just get another piece of vinyl and apply it on agin. Color match perfect.

Truck looks sick, not a big fan of those wheels though..DEF need tinted tails and maybe at least lower the rear so it sits level. GREAT DIY job though, WOW!
