I did my front bumper in Plasti-Dip a few years ago and it is holding up very well.

Just wondering if the Anthracite Gray matches the OEM gray colored wheel lip plastic molding from Ford better than the Dark Gray that I used for my front bumper?

I like the anthracite a LOT better than the dark gray, it would be closer than what you have. The anthracite seems to have a tiny bit of metal flake but not enough to matter. They also have a charcoal metalizer that would be interesting to try. You could get 2 cans of Anthracite and recoat your bumpers. no need to remove them, blue tape works as well. Just don't mask right up to the final dip, use the body lines to make their own break and the tape about 1/2" onto the part you don't want to coat. Be sure to put down dip against the tape and it will all peel off once done. Hope that makes sense.
Thanks, not sure that I want to drop more money on lights. if I found a set in the junkyard I might grab them, or the projector style.
