    Well not sure how easy the gloss white would come off if you don't like it? Or do you have white plasti also?

    Dipped the chrome grill surround and the Toyota emblem today. Gonna get the badges this week sometime and HOPEFULLY get the rear bumper color matched. This stuff is pretty cool!

    yep its MGM. let me know what pics you would like to see and I will take them. I ended up working a lot this week and didn't get much done but hopefully tomorrow, weather permitting, i will finish everything

    Edit: if you do the chrome grill surround, i would recommend taking the chrome surround off of the black center peice, it made it much easier. There are several torx screws and several tabs holding it in but it came off pretty easily

    I plastidipped my toolbox and it has held up nicely against the weather but I put a box back there and it rubbed some it off, but besides that it's great
