Make sure to choose either SUV or truck depending on what you have cause the light bars are different sizes
 
Just finished up a ceramic coat on the truck and wheels. Went with Micky 37x13.5 with 22” Apex bronze rims. Tint d front windows 20% myself. Swapped out the chrome badges to bronze. Smoked out the front light bar and taillights myself as well. Let me know what you guys think.

You did a Great job!!!
 
No spacers used on the wheels. I posted the link for the headlight covers on this thread. You can get them on Amazon or EBay. Just make sure to designate whether it’s for a truck or suv.
Oh its the covers, yeah i know about those. I can't bring myself to pay $400, haha. I paid $75 for ppf on the light bar.

You said smoked out the light bar your self i thought you used some kind of tint film?

I did PPF on the taillights and the red reflectors. Ordered a PPF kit for the light at but they only had it for the SUV which is a different size than the truck. Did you want metal the PPF on the light bar yourself? It seemed like it would be difficult so I went with the easier option.
 
They told me they didn't charge me enough as when he quoted it he wasn't aware it had those ribs between each section which made it a nightmare. He thought it was just one flush strip. I felt bad but I also paid them $5000 for all the paint sections except the roof and its the 6th vehicle they've done ppf for me. why would suv lights be different?

I thought the same thing. When I got the custom cut PPF it looked way too small. Then I used google to find out that they used different sizes. So now I make sure if I order anything to designate Hummer Truck. Do you have any pics of yours. I want to do PPF but it’s pretty pricey here in San Diego. Was thinking about giving it a shot myself since you can find custom kits for pretty cheap.
 
I could take pics but i don't think you can see it. I have to use my finger nail to feel the edge to know its there, and they actually did it, lol. I can't see it but i'm old, my eye sight ain't what it used to be.
 
That's insane. Shop around. I got quotes as high as 10k but most were 6-8 for full wrap excluding roof. My shop may be giving me a special price at 5k due to all the cars they've done for me.

For me PPF is just such a great way for me to enjoy my vehicle and not stress, especially with the matte paint. Get a door ding no big deal, pdr will pull it out and ppf will protect the paint.

My truck is full wrapped and I slid off a trail and dented the bed on a tree. PDR removed the dent and heat gun healed the abrasion on the xpel film. Smoothed out like magic. After that I started wrapping all my vehicles instead of just the off road truck.
