Greetings everyone. Picked up a 2018 Dodge Durango R/T in black back in May. Slowly modding piece by piece over the next few months to a year. Im sure i’ll make other posts with specific questions & troubleshooting but this thread will serve as my place to keep a running update on the progress, supply pics, answer questions & take suggestions. Hope you all enjoy the ride.
Done:
- Borla S-Type Cat-Back Exhaust
- Painted Taillight Tint
Future Plans:
- Body: Sarona Design Fenders, Front Lip, Side Skirts, Rear Diffuser, Mid-Hatch & Top Wing
- Rims & Tires: going up to 22”x10 or 22”x10.5 - Looking at the Black Rhino Safari but open to suggestions on any 5 spoke (classic or split). Any tire set-up suggestions are welcomed.
- Suspension: have considered bagging it with the Accuair Endo-CVT because I’ve seen that the entire set up can be contained in the rear storage compartment. If not, I’ll be going with Black-Ops Autoworks Road Magnets & Control Arms (any & all EXPERIENCED suggestions welcomed)
- Brakes: any & all suggestions on a brake set up that gives a custom/Big Brake look without a Brembo Budget are welcomed. For now, what I’m thinking about doing is replacing the stock rotors with black drilled & slotted rotors & adding an MGP caliper cover.
- Tint: Factory match on the front windows and a 50% windshield tint. Both using Formula One Pinnacle
- Paint/Wrap: As of now, I’m murdering it out (black on black on black on black) with pops of yellow in the MGP caliper covers & a large X-Lume LED badge centered on the front grill to match the black/yellow CA license plate. All other badges will be removed unless sponsorship opportunities present themselves...
(COMPANIES: my DMs are open, I rep sponsorships to the fullest, am a professional videographer/drone operator, am extremely adept at marketing/promo via social media, will travel to shows & enjoy long romantic sunset walks on the beach *wink*wink*wink*wink*)
...When I get bored with the myrdered theme in the future, I’ll probably go with some kind of two-tone scheme with a high gloss Plasti-Dip Autoflex coating in Wicked Wine & black.
I’m almost 100% concerned with strictly aesthetics & probably not diving into the performance side of modding with this build or i would’ve bought the SRT as my base.
There’s a few other minors things I’m considering with less priority including dressing up under the hood with Billet Tech & VMS racing swag, Diode/Devil Eyes LED headlights, TrueSpike Lug Nuts, interior chrome delete, Waylens Secure360 Dashcam, 4K Zoom Rear Camera with video rear view mirror, stealth plate covers, custom seat covers/floor/dash mats once the stock wears out, etc
Thank you for reading all that. Hope it all comes out as well as I see it in my head. All questions are welcomed, experienced tips/suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks for stopping by & I hope you dig the process.
