OK, so I'm not new here, but I don't post much. Figured I should make a thread though, as I have learned so much, now I want to help a little. After long discussions with my wife, we've come to some compromises. I'm on a budget, and want to change the color of the truck. Currently it is a 2003 SOM w/ cladding. So the first thing we're going to do is paint the cladding black (probably with satin Krylon) over the next few weeks. I'm also ordering some pieces to change the exterior color to lime/atomic matte green. Heres my thoughts, do the trim black, keep the chevy logo on front green, and do custom z71 vinyl in black, but can't seem to figure out what to do with the "Chevrolet" on the back. Do you think doing it black would work? Serious debates I'm having. Sorry I can't seem to find somebody whos done this by themselves to an avalanche. The total cost for the wrap should be 200 bucks, plus the stuff to do it-cutting tools, Knife tape, heat gun. I figured have about 300 into it, but it'll allow me to do it over and over again, plus I can do it for others/friends. Anyway, just starting a thread to say hi, and I'll keep you all informed on how it goes.
For those unfamiliar with the process its all over youtube, and after some tutorial videos, I'm pretty sure I can do it, and if you want to see some really cool stuff, look up the knife tape!
