Does anyone have pictures of the factory undercoating for the front inner fenders? I tried the search function but it didn't provide much.

It changes from car to car based on whatever the spray person felt was correct at the moment.

Mine was very thick towards the cab. And slightly sprayed over the UCA back area.

The factory look is easy to obtain.  You just need to get your mindset like a factory line worker after a weekend beer drinking binge.  Truly, all the factory undercoating I have seen differ from car to car.  They were shot while the car was moving down the line, from a low angle, and they didn’t tape off anything, so it got on the valence, LCA, bumper brackets, brake lines, ect.  And the person applying it was doing it as fast as he could.

Thanks everyone, I was trying to get a good pic so I could see in general what areas were not covered. I realized it would vary from car to car and done in a haphazard style.
