    Cool

    [QUOTE=SPAZZ]well you get what you pay for and if I paid someone to do the job I'd be out $1400 or more.

    Plus I didn't paint my VX(if I did I'd be out thousands) as some think I bedlined it. and I didn't want the smooth thin shiny stuff either, no sir, I used the high build thick durable stuff. Pluss it only cost $200 to do the whole VX.

    That is the ticket! Master of your fate and willing to give the new "edge" a feel. I think it looks good. Especially now that I understand the situation and your environment. As the years go by for my Dragon...the day may come when I must do the same thing too. Thanks for the idea and the actual.

    Spazz - I've got to hand it to you, that is one "stealthy" looking VX; absolutely one of a kind!

    I like it - and to each there own.

    Would I do it - HELL NO!!

    But I've only had my VX for about 2 weeks - I'm one of those that you would refer to as going "EEK" in the parking lot. However, if you should see the Rodeo I've had for 10 years now ... ... that's a whole 'nother story and one of the reasons that I stand up for those willing to be "one of a kind"!!

    PS - you're in Boise?? Hell that's damn near the neighborhood ... give a shout when you're going to be in the neighborhood! I'd love to see your rig - particularly what tires you're running and what that hood scoop is all about.

    Best,

    I'd prefer the thinner stuff, more of a wrinkle coat rather than a lumpy coat. However, this stuff looks like it'll definately survive a 65mph encounter with the next carload of kids that come along.
    I'd have liked to see the badges, mirrors, rack removed before the spray, but, all of that prep work would add up. It'd cost way more than $200 to do it my way.

    It makes the wheels look out of place. You need to ditch the bling and get some mean black wheels to match the rest of the truck.

    I dig the tires though -I'm waiting on Sam's to get my size in. I hope that they self clean as well as they look like they might.

    Wow, Spazz - definitely a mean looking truck. I'd be very afraid if that thing pulle dup next to me.

    So a question for you - just because I'm curious. With that stuff applied, was there a noticeable difference in the wind noise while driving highway speeds? My guess is yes, of course, but maybe not. I could imagine that the coating would actually provide some sound insulation, too. I'm also curious if the added drag affects your fuel economy, but that's harded to pin down.

    Enjoy!
