I did the rockers and it was too much so I peeled it off. WARNING: make sure you get at least 5 coats EVERYWHERE.
Rule of thumb for plastidip- the more you put on, the longer it lasts and the easier it is to take off.
I had a few spots in the corners of my mirrors and door handles where it's so thin it won't peel off all, but didn't stay connected to the think spots.. Had to get acetone and scrub it off.
The emblems say No Fear and are full replacements, not stickers or covers.

No I didn't take any before I peeled. It was just too much black. Now since yours is beige I would say go for it.

Hey I tried a quick fix from Autozone, Meguiar's G15812 Ultimate Black Plastic Restorer. The first application worked on most areas. The bed caps will need another coat.

I liked this better than painting, because I didn't want to take the chance of that stuff peeling or cracking and having to redo it every year or something.

I just tried this too. Worked really well on my stuff. This is after 2 weeks and 2 strong rain storms, looks and feels like brand new. Not slimy or stick or anything, just smooth to the touch.
