Ok... I finally plasti dipped my Harley grille this weekend. Used almost 2 cans of spray. I think it came out great! Seems like it will hold up well. I'm a fan.

Keep the chrome! i don't really get why everybody wants to cover their chrome up, flat black is really not that cool looking if it is on EVERYTHING!

Didn't realize this...so I looked it up for further clarification... at least we can go up to a 3 inch fender flare and as long as tires do not stick out past that we are good....

WV rules and regulations:
4.8.11. The outermost edge of tires mounted on a modified vehicle shall not extend laterally beyond the outboard edge of the fender, the fender well, or other wheel enclosure including flared fender openings when viewed from above.


4.8.11.1. Maximum width of fender flares is three (3) inches as measured from the outside edge of the original fender to the outermost edge of the flare.

Thanks, looks like I need to order some flares along with the wheels.
