2022 Limited Stealth Beltline Chrome Delete RED!!!

[DieselMonk]

The SPP actually has red painted callipers to match that red stripe. Hmm… food for thought!

 

[BigOleFordFan]

rims too

And the brake calipers.

I like what you did with the beltline, and this is my 3rd vote for the rims, as I think that ring of silver there just throws off the whole color scheme, but I would get black calipers instead of red, as I've seen other folks put red ones on stealth models and it is just too much IMHO...

Also perhaps 2 thin racing stripes right on the edge of the hood contours..??

But a BIG NO on the door handles & roof rack, I think that would really look out of place..

Red calipers and now get the machined portion of the rim painted red to match and that ought to top it off. Tow hooks too.

I disagree. I think the machined aluminum rim on the Stealth 22" wheels looks classy and breaks up what would be a solid mass of black with the wheel and the tire.

but I would get black calipers instead of red...

I agree. Red calipers scream "Look at me!" which would be fine if they were something special like Brembos or Alcons or Wilwoods. But, the stock calipers painted red doesn't do anything for me.

Interesting. There's a GMC Yukon in my neighborhood that is black with black wheels that have a reflective red rim. The reflective red catches my headlights sometimes. Looks kinda cool...well, as cool as a Yukon can be.

I'd wrap the belt line in the same color as the body. Imho any more red and it will look like a delivery truck. Less is more.

I have a star white SPP with gloss black trim. I just purchased from Fellers the 3M 2080 film in gloss black to do the chrome delete. The red shown by the OP looks good, but the red is a bit out of balance with the overall color. I believe for my black gloss trim on the star white, the black chrome delete will look great.

That would have been my perfect colour white and black. Agreed on the black chrome delete on yours.

I hated the chrome beltline on the stealth because it's all I see on the truck. Laying in bed one night I thought if all I could see was that beltline, then let's make it pop! I used 3M 2080 2" Hot Rod Red. Let me know what you think.View attachment 78279View attachment 78280

I purchased the 3M 2080 2" in gloss black and plan on do the chrome delete soon. I have a star white stealth with gloss black trim. I had PPF put on the B and C pillars as well as the black running boards and mirrors. The PPF makes the finish shine even when dirty. I had the PPF professionally installed.

Question to the OP, did you have difficulty getting the vinyl to stretch around the rear corners of the chrome trim on the back/rear of the sides? I see yours looks like it made the contour just fine. I have scoped it out and that seems to a tough bend. Any comments? Thanks.

The back corners and under the mirrors are the only difficult parts, and they aren't that difficult. A little bit of heat and they make the corner contours just fine.

Thank you for the comment. Looking forward to doing this soon. I will post photos.

I have a bunch of in progress pics but somehow didn't take any of that corner. I've got them posted over here if it helps at all:

Just make sure you take your time cleaning the chrome really well before wrapping it or you'll have a terrible finish on it. Any little spec of dirt will make it look bad.
