Raptor Overland

Wrap finally done ... all the functional stuff next.

How do you like the Llumar product? I'm considering this for another vehicle. And if you don't mine me asking, what was the approximate price?

The flat color looks amazing!

Hey Joe, sorry for the delayed response ...

So the Llumar matte film has been good and bad. It does its job protecting the paint and looks great.

The problem is that mine came from a defective batch of film, and had areas where the film had darker stripes. This was a widely reported issue, and not only with Llumar but also with Xpel matte film released around the same time, which led many people to conclude that it was either an issue with a chemical that was supplied to all the manufacturers, or more likely that they all come from the same place and then individual manufacturers may or may not add additional product on it on their end.

In any case, Llumar is Eastman, and they were very responsive and refunded me the full amount of the wrap and installation, and they also offered me to pay to have someone remove it. I chose to keep it as it was free and the truck is dirty most of the time so you can't see the stripping.

My understanding is that this issue has since been resolved, if so I would recommend the film. (I don't think Llumar offers it any more but its sister company Suntek does)

Hope you made it through the storm ok.

I have a question. I plan on putting a winch bumper on my 2012 Raptor. Would I need a larger intercooler or does that only apply to the later model Raptor?

If your 2012 is stock, it has no intercooler.
