What installers see on a Ram 1500

Ram trucks have the largest hood area in the segment; truck pricing applies and rockers are worth adding if you tow or run gravel. Trucks carry a 1.4 multiplier: the largest hood and door panels on the road, and chips land on rockers and rear fenders as much as the front.

◆National 2026 installer range for each coverage option (standard sedan baseline).
◆Size class: truck, multiplier 1.4. More panel area means more film or coating and more hours.
◆Condition: a car that needs paint correction first adds about 12%. New cars with clean paint sit at the low end.
◆Studios on Coateau set their own prices inside these ranges; the offer you accept is the price you pay.
