i like the rugged look of the bushwakers, the exposed stainless hardware looks cool to me.

I didn't buy a kit because I had my entire truck wrapped so they cut it to fit out of big sheets. You would need to call and ask a dealer if it would. The key is getting it put on well which will typically mean by a professional installer. It's put on and acts like window tint (i.e., almost everyone CAN do it, but not many people do it WELL ).

Hope that helps.

I'm wondering what it cost you to wrap the whole truck?
As much as to have it painted?

About as much as a cheap paint job-$9,000. A top notch paint job on our trucks will run you almost $20,000-$25,000.

I wouldn't pay $9000 to protect my paint job, sure as hell wouldn't pay $20k to have it painted either, but I'm just a poor workin stiff...

53: You crack me up!

I knew that Optimus was going to be a show truck and that he would be in a lot of magazines so it was important for me to protect the paint and body as much as possible. Especially with the winter weather and salt and it being VERY difficult to get the time to wash Optimus, it would not take long for the salt to affect the truck, so to me it was worth it. That, and the fact that nothing sticks to this stuff. High-pressure water will get everything right off of it!
