    I would dip it the tan camo I've seen others with QS tacos and it's a close match.

    Oh btw after some further research into plasti dips rubbery texture I found there is a spray called dip coat that makes it more like factory paint feel. Ordered some gonna try it out.

    I'm not sure I'm sold on that look. I don't like mixing matte quicksand with the gloss stock paint.

    Just got some of these today and tried them on my straight dipped flares grille and lower bumper. If nothing else it at least makes it really easy to clean them without leaving fibers like any Microfiber would leave.

    I didn't feel the dip after I let the stuff dry yet so I'll check tomorrow and see what the results are!

    If you use glossifier then you get the glossy look as well. Also I played with going thick on the gloss on a small part of my grill just to see how it would be and it's super glossy like painted body.

    I did my grill and the next day went through car wash it seemed to get a little tacky again. My dash is fine still though that doesn't get washed.

    I might just get the dip coat from Amazon or theres another company that makes it and it's supposed to last longer.

    As for the emblem, I could always plasti dip plus actual automotive clear coat on top to make it fully glossy. I tried glossifier before and it still wasn't as shiny as the paint it seemed. Or I could leave it until I get my pro grille haha

    I did my stock wheels over the weekend with matte black plastidip. I decided taking the wheels off would allow me to create a more even spray. I'm very happy with how they turned out. Still not sure what I'm going to do about the center caps. Did about 6 coats on each wheel. Most of the overspray on the tires peeled off easily. Sorry about the sideways pic, my image host won't allow me to adjust

    It came installed already on the truck when I bought it a few weeks ago. I really like the clean look of the all-black lettering.

    If you use some ice turtle wax spray it helps smooth out the feel a bit. It's a lot cheaper than dip coat. It also helps with decreasing the look of scuffs and rubs. I've used it on my bumper caps after a wash and they feel really smooth in my opinion

    Swapped my OR grille for an SR5 grille. Dipped the emblem and surround with DupliColor CustomWrap in Patriot Blue. I think it needs to go a shade darker. Not sure what ill do yet.
