Congrats! Send some dune pictures!!

Thanks!! Appreciate you posting! And it does disassemble further to where that silver piece comes off? I had someone offer linex in place which made me nervous. Yours did come out nice with the powder. I still don’t get the “modular” concept that is supposed to be this bumper, lol.

Would you mind sharing pics of the bumper disassembly?

Sharp!

Yeah i went back and looked at your pics and agree yours appear to have been anodized. Check mine out earlier in post… dual valve, definitely no anodizing. If you do try coating… post some pics of what you end up doing.

That’s interesting and you will get some more meaningful interaction with data. So who has a decibel meter that can do the same in a Gen 3 that seems to function properly… as he described above? My exhaust modes on the 24 vary considerably… and I’d be shocked if didn’t produce a very different...

Looks nice! Would like some side pics with Eibachs on it too. Was bumper a pain to deal with sensors, etc? What did powder coat cost for all that?

For the sake of argument… i don’t think they are entirely wrong. I believe the white chalky appearance is essentially the result of oxidation… a precursor to corrosion. Exposed aluminum has an affinity for oxygen which reacts to form the aluminum oxide. Yes it looks like $hit but it does...

Dude… saw them like that in rural India years ago. I feel like I’m a pretty good shot… but… I’m not sure I’ve got what it takes to send one down range accurately.

Let’s be honest, Raptors are not known for subtlety… most of us that drive them aren’t either. Everything from its aesthetics, capability, and yes… it’s sound (particularly Gen 3)… is bold. Like it or not, they’re definitely not for everyone. But for those who wish to complain… you’re not...

I had one too… nice… but not special. Traded on a 2019 Raptor… never looked back.., not once. Just traded 19 on a 24. No looking back still. 19 was best truck ever and I’ve owned them all. 24 destined to eclipse the former.

Interesting

This was my experience as well… twice! It’s awesome!

My dual valves are completely void of anodizing… and of course look white/crusty like you might expect bare aluminum to look. Interesting that OP’s single valves appear anodized or at least partially. @BigTaco inquired about the salt from early 24’s sitting. Mine was built late March and...

Sorry for the delayed response… so i did ceramic all around… 13% on the front two, 5% on the eyebrow strip on the windshield. 35% on the rear and back two. 70% on the moon roof… which is like no tint… just to get the ceramic heat rejection. If i don’t want to see out of the moon roof, i...
