I do snooze and lose. Real OEM Denali lights will come soon, I am going to clear them with the Klearz corners probably.
I'll look into a real hitch thanks.

@1FastBrick Yeesh I was hoping to avoid taking the top cap off, was just gonna spray in the truck. Glove box would have come out though.

Like I said, For best results...
It could be done in the truck. Just mask everything up around it. You don't want overspray on the glass and the ambient light sensor. Make sure you clean the dash with warm soapy water to remove any crap that may have been put on it.
You can not use any solvents and even some cleaners will even lift the paint.

I tried a wax and grease remover, alcohol, a plastic prep cleaner and they all lifted the paint off. Even the adhesion promoter I tried to use caused it to lift.

Yeah for sure
We'll see, I may let the dash go but the glove box for sure is going to get resprayed. Looks like crap, at least the dash you can't see it lol

That little stuff is the stuff that irritates me the most. I hate seeing the little scratches and chips with the black underneath.

I agree but taking out the dash pad of my new truck would give me a heart attack especially if I broke it lol

Surprisingly removing a dash pad is one of the only things I have not done on these.

It's not that hard. I am sure there is a YouTube video or something. Again you can do it in the truck just mask it up

Ordered some tarminator and the SEM paint. Need to find a door sill next cause the driver has a crack in it. Not real bad but I imagine they are pretty cheap and easy to come by.

Are you talking about the Plastic trim scuff plate on the Floor that covers the carpet and the rocker panel ? I don't know if there is any stock left but they were discontinued. I was able to get a new one through the dealer when I got my truck. Mine was also broken. The used ones online were just as much as a new one and at the time the ones in the junk yard were either scratched, broken like mine, or not the right color....

Message this seller and see if this is correct for your truck. It's their last one... you could also check with your dealer buddy.

There is a few more of that part number listed so no big rush. I know they would be cheaper at a junk yard if they have one. A self pull yard would be 10$-15$ for a trim piece.

Yes that but I didn't think it had a the thing coming up to the seat?

I figure I could find one on marketplace from a part out or somethin. Shouldn't be too hard but it may be something I just live with.
