Still love this truck. Anyone looking for his grill, it's a Boost Bars Raptoid grill.

After many other mods/additions I plasti-dipped the whole truck Olive Drab Green.I then added all of the decals you see. Finished it up with the graphic tint onthe back window.

What do you think? Here are some before and after shots.

Love the truck! Great job on the customization!!

How hard was it to get good coverage with cans, outside?

It wasn't hard at all. Just do it on a day that's not windy outside. My texture is a bit rougher than the professional jobs because it's hard to get a really wet coat down with the cans. I wanted a rough texture though so it worked out.

When you look at the professional jobs its hard to tell if it's a vinyl wrap or plastidip because the finish is so smooth. The wetter you lay down your coats the smoother the finish would be. Covering such a large area with the individual cans will make it hard to get it as wet as you want without having a bunch of lines in the end result. I sprayed MANY light coats and kept the can back further, so it resulted in a more textured finish.

That's one of the coolest trucks I've seen on here. Thank you for your service also!

Hey question for you and anyone else running aux led reverse lights in the back, does your rear back up sensors act up when your using your led rears? When I'm backing up and flip on my reverse lights the rear back up sensors stop functioning and it says something like "check back up sensors" or something along those lines. I can't tell if it's a reflection thing or a wiring interference thing since the wires run so close behind the bumps.

No issues with reverse lights and interference from my Rigid SR-Q2 setup.
