Default So I Plasti-Dipped my bumbers...hated it.

I thought I wanted black bumpers to go with my white paint job. I was wrong. Luckily, it peels right back off. I left it about a week, but just wasn't loving it. Here's what it looked like with black bumpers:

I also think it turned out good. But I'm sure you would have liked it more if you had black rocker panels and rims, maybe emblems too and tinted windows. To me with just the bumpers black and nothing else it didn't really flow together ya know? Just my thought. Nice truck though man

The plasti dipping turned out good but like ^^^ said I think you'd like it better with extra stuff, because how it is it just looks like a low model work truck IMO

Yeah if you are leaving the basic wheels I'd keep it all white. If your truck had black wheels I'd like the black!

I think you guys are right. Maybe if it were one of the last things to go black, it would look better. With the Chrome head lights and wheels, it just wasn't right. I thought it looked like one of the city's work trucks too.
