Well I did a Lil something more to my truck. I Plasti dipped the back bumper. I think it looks good and blends in to the truck better. Also plasti-dipped the fuel door to match the wheels. Now I've only it a few chrome parts on and that just the front grille surround and the front bumper. Goin leave it. I like it when the sun reflects off of it.

all I did was wash it off and dry it. Didn't cover anything Up. No over spray. I Plasti-dipped the whole bumper chrome and plastic all of it. Only prep I did was wash and dry bumper. It was a spur of the moment deal had a bit left in can and decided to try it. If ya by chance he over spray let it dry and just rub over it with ur hand and comes right off.

That's nice man. The lift combination looks good. And yeah I thought those were 35's. I'll keep shopping around but I might just have to get the rough country if it looks that good. Thanks

I am really considering it. I'm goin give it some thought and see about it and think it over. I may just do it next spring. I've heard of people doin it. Have seen pics of them doin it. Haven't seen any finished pics though.
