Holding up great!! Just wish they had little bit more of a glossy finish. I tried the plasti dip glossifer and it didn't make hardly any difference .

has anyone on here used regular spray paint as the top coat. i plasti dipped my chrome side steps but the mud around has stained them. do not not want to scrub to hard, thinking if i used a semi gloss black rattle can over it would have a smoother finish.

I thought your name was a knock-off of [MENTION=105706]TheBlack2011FX4[/MENTION] for a second, lol!

Nice truck! That grey is actually growing on me. The more I look at it, the more I like it.

Dropped the truck off today to get this installed. BDS 6" lift with Fox coilovers cranked 2" and 5" block with AAL in the rear for a total of 8" lift all around.



Hopefully my wheels and tires show up before the truck is done!
