A RAM 1500 wrap costs $3,800–$5,200 in 2026; TRX $4,500–$7,500. Chrome delete, partial packs and local truck shops.
A full RAM 1500 color-change wrap budgets $3,800–$5,200 in 2026 for standard gloss or satin film. The wider, more complex RAM TRX typically lands $4,500–$7,500 because of flared fenders, deeper aero and extra surface area. Specialty films push higher, chrome / bright-trim deletes run about $900–$2,200, and full color PPF approximately $7,500–$12,000 depending on cab and bed configuration.
All figures below are editorial planning estimates drawn from existing Wrap Map guides and comparable vehicle work, not a verified local price survey. Film brand, coverage, panel condition, region and shop demand change the final number, so use these ranges to plan a budget and compare written quotes.

Popular RAM TRX / 1500 wrap styles for 2026
1. Desert sand, graphite or military green. Trail-ready muted colors that suit the TRX; compare sheens in our satin vs matte vs gloss finishes guide.
2. Gloss or satin black with full chrome delete. Pairs a dark body with a chrome delete guide on grille, badges and brightwork.
3. Two-tone racing or bed accents. Contrasting roof, hood scoop or bed stripes over a base color change.
Special considerations for wrapping a RAM truck
- TRX flares and hood scoop. Extra flare area and scoop interiors need patient heat work; confirm scoop treatment in writing.
- Chrome packages. Many RAM trucks carry a lot of bright trim; budget a full delete if you want a clean blackout look.
- Door jambs and bed. A strong color change makes jambs and bed rails visible; confirm what is included.
- Sensors and cameras. Ask how parking sensors, trailer cameras and the front camera are masked.
Vinyl vs color PPF on a RAM 1500 / TRX
Vinyl is a thinner cast film that changes the color with light UV and scuff protection; it is the cheaper path and removes cleanly when done right. Color PPF is thicker self-healing urethane that resists chips and light scratches while changing color — especially useful on a highway-driven TRX front end. Read the full color PPF vs vinyl comparison before deciding.
Add-on prices
| Add-on | Planning allowance | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Roof only | $400–$900 | Popular contrast look |
| Clear PPF front end | $1,800–$3,500 | Bumper, hood, fenders, mirrors |
| Door jambs | $700–$1,800 | Four doors |
| Badge / emblem blackout | $200–$500 | Hood, grille and tailgate |
| Wrap-safe ceramic coating | $500–$1,400 | After film cures |

Installation, inspection and ownership
A full RAM 1500 / TRX wrap typically takes four to six working days including prep and post-heat. Inspect the vehicle in daylight at pickup: look along each edge for lifting, check seams, and confirm there are no knife marks on surrounding trim. Hand wash for the first two weeks, avoid automatic brushes, and keep pressure-washer tips away from edges. A film-safe ceramic coating makes upkeep easier.
