Dang that's nice. Is your trailer color Cascade Blue? I'd love to do this also.

Belly Band

Looks real nice. Matches the Graphic and makes a nice accent. You'll get compliments on that for sure.

We decided to change the band from black to white. I waited until we had a dry day so I could caulk all the rivet holes at the same time. We had found a few iffy ones when we tested them and decided to just do them all.

Looks great Dennis. It looks just a bit darker than the graphics color, which is a similar situation to my red one - but close enough to tie everything together.

Thanks. Yes a little darker but does look nice when the light hits it. Perfect match to my truck color.

Ok, these trim colors were looking so good I had to try it. There are 2 grades of this trim on eBay. The first one I purchased was $10.99 for 50 feet and it was pretty thin stuff. I looked again and found some listed as American made and thicker for $17.99 for 100 feet. It is not as thick as the original ETI installed but close not that it really matters anyway. While I had the orgional black trim removed I put a dab of proflex on each rivet.

Graphics are dark gray and trim is silver so it is not a perfect match but I think it looks much better than the black.

Tom, that looks super. Especially in photo #2 you can see the color is very close indeed.

I'm glad I choose black decals, and the standard black belly ban came with the trailer

But MAN, some of the changes I'm seeing is steller Obviously making YOUR trailer your own. How great to be one-of-one instead of one-of-many!

Hi Tom,

I like your colors so much I would like to duplicate them on my ordered trailer. You said that the graphics color was dark gray, and I wanted to make sure that it was what they actually call "Dark Gray" and not Battleship or other gray. Also would you be kind enough to provide the details for the silver trim? Thank you for your help.
