    Looks awesome! Did you remove your grill to spray on the plasti-dip? If you did how exactly did you do it? I want to do the same thing to my taco

    That's because it's not meant for the applications most use it for on this forum. To each their own, but it's a waste of time IMO.

    did it on my wheels, came out fine. But imo, it's the way you treat your ride in general. I mean if your going mudding/OR/etc. you will HAVE to expect some kind of damage. I do A LOT of street driving and baby the living hell out of my truck. So it came out fine for me, and it lasted until I went and had my tires changed, still going to do it again (getting tired of cleaning out the brake dust), although like stated before in a post on here "Each to his own".

    Mine had been plastidipped a couple of months before I wrecked. I live on a washed out dirt road full of rocks, I've had a rock hit my windshield from my back tire before, and no paint came off. Even after my wreck my wheel and tire that skidded across the ground didn't scratch up at all. Which surprised me.
