I don't know about the Deep Woods Off, but Dan said that the restoration kits are hit or miss with regard to longevity, because you've removed UV protective layer. If you get them cleaned up and then have them painted with automotive clear coat, the job will likely last a lot longer.

Never thought of clearing them. That's a good idea.

But yeah, a buddy told me about the off. It worked really well but only lasted a couple months as well. I'll remember the clear coat next time.

I used the 3m kit on my brothers pathfinder heads and 6 months later they are still nice and bright. Fwiw

GOP RIDER

Well I drove my rig down to the ol tire shop.
Les Schwab had some hot coffee ready and a nice place to sit while I wait.
I can't sit n wait so I left it and these grease monkeys changed out both front wheel bearings. They both had about 1/2" play 3 to 9 o'clock and 12 to 6. I didn't notice the bearing play. Just bought the pickup and had new skins thrown on. Les Schwab is an honest place for tire, suspension, and steering work.
So ya 221 bucks out the door both front wheels can't beat that with a stick
Ride on!

There may be plastic trim over them but they're definitely metal cab corners lol

Well obviously there's metal back there, the point is the cab corner that you see is plastic as plastic gets.

And because of that they're junk? Explain

I washed my work truck and It almost came off, how's that?

Edit:

The tail lights are so thin I can push them in with my fingers

Edit 2

My coworker stepped on the corner of my tailgate and cracked the plastic

Good enough I guess. Thought you were implying they were junk as a whole not a piece of plastic.
