My Vinyl wrap for holiday project.

I literally typed "metallic dark grey vinyl wrap", into eBay. Saw something that looked close on my screen to the "Wildtrak Grey", I wanted for my interior bits. Took a punt and got close enough.

It'll never be next to a factory painted part, so I'm sure even I won't notice. Looks even closer in person, this was an early, pre-work shot today, against a painted part.

I have a hard time signing my name let alone trying to wrap car parts. I bought a bag of bows for my wife’s Fedex, Ebay and UPS Christmas presents still in the shipping wrappers.
and that’s as far as I go… :)

Retired, work is a four letter word.
Shipment from The Tire Rack, very good price (sale) and shipped very fast, like 3 days, delayed one day for weather over the pass. I will put them on after Xmas.
PS, my Wife is the Bomb!!

Focal speakers to replace all the stock speakers. Once they are installed I can decide which sub to get. For such a small space I’ll go with either the Focal IBUS, (2) Kicker HS8, or (1) Kicker HS10. I’ve had the Focal before and it does have a great musical note to it. Not especially deep but a very well rounded sub for tight spaces.

My door handles turned up. After weeks of searching, they were the only set I could find. Tore them open and found this…

Two different colours. Rear ones must be from a PX2, as only the front are a match to the other PX3 OEM painted parts I have. I wasn’t happy.

Oh, I got it done lol. A few issues with the tailgate handle cover, but I wasn’t going until it was done.
Tell me more about the tailgate handle cover. Where did you order, did you spec the colour when you ordered? I have a Lariat with the black plastic handle. Would like to do one to match Cactus Grey.
I guess I also have to do something about the all the chrome on and around the blue oval. Thinking of just painting that magnetic.

Just ordered a cheap one through eBay and had my painter spray it at the same time as the rest of the pieces. Painted up ok, but I prob rushed a bit fitting it and it’s not covering ALL the chrome and catches a touch. I’m calling it a work in progress.

Today I recieved a neoprene center console cover that iI ordered from Amazon and I'm actually surprised by how much I i like it! It says it's manufactured in the USA and included a hand written thank you note for the order.

I ordered this because my Ranger will be stepping up to a truly daily driver status in February when I leave my job and with that loose my take-home police vehicle. On top of that, I'll be spending some long days driving back and forth between where I live now and our new home in Florida. And on one of those trips I'll have my rambunctious dog with me. I don't want him tearing up my interior!

I have seen those on Amazon, wondered about the quality.
From what I read, it is just a cover....but...wondering if there is enough extra "give" to install a piece of memory foam under to kind of raise it an inch or two for more support for your elbow/forearm ?
