I hope everyone has been well and thanks again for all of the support I've gotten from this post! I wrapped up the headlight projector retrofit that I previewed on this thread and in the video. If anyone is interested, I made a forum post HERE. I made a video of the process too for my...

I can't thank you all enough for the kind words and support that I got from my previous (and first ever) post regarding the Raptor Liner paint job I did to the full exterior of a JT. In that thread and in the video, I mentioned that I also was working on a projector retrofit for that same Jeep...

Holy shit, that's badass! I'm honored to have both of you on this thread! I really appreciate it and I'm glad you enjoyed the write-up! :fist bump:

The options for copyright-free music are slim these days. I try and keep the background music as neutral as possible, but better options require a license and that's just not something I'm willing to add to my budget at the moment. I appreciate the honest feedback though, I'll be able to allot...

It means the world to me and the channel, thank you! A thumbs-up on the video is paramount for YouTube to see the video worthy of promoting in suggested videos and the browse feature. My girlfriend and I went to Portsmouth just a few weeks ago to check out NH as well. She works north of Boston...

I think by far the most important interaction for a creator that someone can perform is liking a video! Thank you so much and I hope you were able to enjoy the video as well!

I guess it's a cycle for everyone and we end up realizing what you're saying! I know the good karma comes around for us and we don't regret the help we gave because after all, the Jeep community always finds a way to give back. In my case, just reading all of these responses has been enough for...

The support means everything, thank you so much! :fist bump: I'd be more than happy to have you at the shop. I'll keep the forum posted the biggest challenge for me has been finding the right location and commercial/industrial space. If anyone here ends up finding me the right location, Ill...

If you got a chance to take a look at the video I posted at the beginning of this thread, the girl I'm referring to is the same one in the video! She's awesome and has always supported me and I was happy to have her in the video even if only for a few seconds.

Crazy you say that, when I'm back in NJ I play men's league hockey with my dad every week and one of the players works at Picatinny too. He speaks really highly of his line of work there and I genuinely think it would be a great fit for me. As of now though, I'm currently living in Boston and am...

Thank you very much! It's definitely not for everyone and it's quite the commitment, to say the least. Thanks for looking and I appreciate the honesty!

I would say that it looks as good as the pictures and video, but I'd be lying- it looks better :like: I'm just messing around and am really proud of the work. My first Raptor paint job didn't come out nearly this good and I'm confident that this work will last the life of the Jeep. Thanks for...

Once you get the hang of this stuff, it's hard not to coat everything :LOL: Just let me know if I can offer any help if you decide to take on the project.

I've definitely had a hard time with this over the years as I've grown in the Jeep community. A big part of me feels the need to pay it forward since, in the early years of owning my Jeep, I had a lot of people take time out of their day to similar things for me and I've grown to appreciate the...

The grays are really nice colors and are popular in the Raptor Line communities. If you have a Facebook, I'd recommend joining the Raptor Lined vehicles group and you'll see a lot of great color options and how they achieved each gray. Tinting it gets tricky because whatever tint you add, the...

I would be so happy to have you come in! I'll keep you posted, I'm hoping to have a shop by the end of this year! I really appreciate the kind words! In the video, you can see when I show how to do something such as the door that I show how I did the last out of the four because I got the hang...

To Raptor Line a full exterior including the disassembly, prep, prime, and paint it's about $3,500 with material and labor. It's tough to say exactly because I really have only done this for close friends and I did a lot on this JT for no charge on labor like the retrofit, bumper install (I know...

I did not, but Raptor is a true two-part paint and I've had my Jeep lined for years without any fading. Many aerosols or bedliners that depend on rubber for the texture will have different results. From U-POL, the makers of Raptor Liner, "RAPTOR Tough and Tintable Protective Coating is a...

I really appreciate it! I take a ton of pride in my work and reading comments like these always means a lot to me. As for the temps, I like to shoot anywhere above 70 degrees Fahrenheit, but between 60 and 70 is just fine as well. As long as temps don't dip below 40, you should be good and all...

The other week, I was reminded of why the Jeep community can't be topped by any other. I was working on my Jeep WK, and at the time, my neighbor was having construction done to his home. An employee walked over and asked me who painted my Jeep and I told him that I had done it a few years back...
