    Are you removing your bumper to derp it? Looking forward to pics of the bumper. I've been on the fence about derp'in my bumper for a few months...

    I did my emblems and rear bumper + scoop insert and all of it turned out amazing. I have pics in my gallery, I also just removed my tailgate and masked it off. Extremely happy with the results :) I suggest doing more light coats compared to less heavy coats. Also not sure what your rear bumper looks like but I have a sport so mine was color matched with the black plastic top. I dipped that part too so it all matched matte black!

    About 4 light coats.. If you spray too much it will start dripping. So start from one end of the bumper to the other side. Then back from where u started... I want to say the bumper was easier to plasti dip than the badges but all came out good.. Just take your time and make sure you clean it good. I just used windex

    If you plan on removing your bumper and you live in the rust belt, your gonna break some bolts off.

    No removal of the bumper needed. First picture is prep. The second is completed product.

    Depends on how much you put on? Use thin coats at first and the more coats you add the thicker coats should get. You should use 6-7 coats. The thicker you go, the better off you'll be if you have to peel it off.
