So far I have dipped my radio/therm trim, shifter console, front bumper and front emblem

I plan on getting the back bumper, rims and vent covers here soon!

Take the rim off of the truck it's much easier to do them.

My question is, how did you guys do the wheels? Just leave them on and spray them and rub off overspray from the tires? Mask off areas first? What about the lug nuts for those the didn't dip them?
I removed tires and rims from my truck and masked off the tires to not get overspray on them and left my lug nuts chrome.

04ON22s I actually liked your chrome better. But it still looks nice plastidipped.


I think I'm going to spray my rockers now to get rid of the white.

Which chrome did you like better. The rims or the handles or both?

his truck looks wayyy better with the black bottom and wheels. That color goes well with black imo.

His truck looks sharp both ways. Being that plasti-dip is cheap and easy to remove and respray, He can change the look his truck whenever he gets tired of the old look. I think it looks like two completely different trucks dipped vs chromed.

I like it both ways as well. But the black makes the blue a darker shade which I like. And like Jordan said I can peel it off whenever.
