    Nice work, im doing the same this weekend. How'd it go? did you just leave it on and tape around the tail gate? How many coats did you end up doing?
    And is your tail gate also sprayed? At the top there.

    I've used plastidip a couple times before, its super easy and forgiving if you make any kind of mistake. I did it in the rain and it still came out good lol. I didn't see a need to take the bumper off. I just used tape along the edge of the top plastic piece, and held up a piece cardboard above it while I sprayed along the bumper. I've seen people mask off their whole tailgate and I have no idea why lol, it's a predictable spray and it wont go flying everywhere. Even if it does it'll just rub off. I did one light patchy coat at first not worrying how it looked. Then half hour later did a lil heavier, then after another 30 min I put it on pretty heavy so as to just cover any chrome showing through. Then it started raining pretty hard so I still got a little more to cover. So yeah, really easy I didn't even really take it serious and it still looks sweet.

    Relentless Armored! Too many others to list.
    Smoother ride on rough terrain, more suspension flex offroad, but gives a more body lean and a 'mushy' feel on corners on the street. Can also make the truck easier to roll in evasive street maneuvers too.
