Looks good man! That is what I want to do to my Lariat! I don't like chrome. But will get expensive
Not at all. They have the stuff at home depot/lowes for 5.40 a can. I used 2 1/2 cans but I had to learn how to spray it. I think the grille will take 2 cans and same for bumpers. I did hit the handles with glossifier which looks better up against the paint. It isn't needed but does make a difference. If you don't like it, peel it off. It has held up great in the carwash. I would have done the bumpers and grill already but I have a 2 month old. Time is limited. For the door handles I had to put electrical tape on them because the way you grip it, it can peel easy.
The dip on the door handles did not last for me. I ended up painting them. Part of the problem is the inside of the door handle is a black plastic and most handle dip tutorials they put black electrical tape on the inside to keep the edge of the dip from peeling. The feel of the electrical tape would bug me.

I don't even notice the tape. After a couple uses it just felt normal.
I started the dip and love it but....I hit the edge with my knuckle. I took the section off. Figured it could patch it. Nope. So took it off. I like the look. Will get better pictures when it is done. This should give you an idea since we have the same grille.
