Why You Should Wrap your GMC Sierra

It is important to protect your Chevrolet Silverado/GMC Sierra and even more since it is a truck. Trucks go through a lot more damaging terrain than regular vehicles that mostly stay on the road. That exposes your trucks to more things that can damage the paint of your vehicle which is why you need to be prepared at all times. By applying paint protection film, your vehicle will be safe against scratches, bird droppings, incremental weather, and anything else it might encounter on its journey. And the best part is that the PPF has self-healing technology built in that gets rid of small scratches and damages over time.

First Generation Chevrolet Silverado/Second Generation GMC Sierra (2000)

The first generation of Chevrolet Silverado/ second generation of GMC Sierra trucks made their debut in 1998 as the 1999 models. GMC released a bunch of models of Silverados and Sierras that included the half-to, SS, and the Hybrid. The light-duty trucks went by the nomenclature 1500 and were available in three cab lengths; 2-door standard/regular, 3 or 4-door extended cab, and the front-hinged 4-door crew cab.
