    Started the Plasti Dip addiction. So far sprayed the chrome front grill and emblem, and two center caps (figure for testing people can only see one side of the truck at a time ;) ).

    Plan on spraying the lower front bumper black, rear bumper black, and wheels black. More pictures coming, once I do.

    Current picture (2 April).

    And photoshop of what I am planning.

    Welp thanks to this thread, looks like I'll be dipping my wife's go cart (fiat 500) this weekend. Going from the Luce Blue fiat color to Camo green. Should be a fun project, if it turns out well I might have to dip the taco

    I was going to do them black. However when I was prepping I noticed she has been rubbing the curbs quite a bit. So I decided to level them the silver, the plastic beneath is silverish so it doesn't show all the scrapes

    Yea if you go with a pro car kit that comes with the sprayer and mixer/tape etc you can choose anthracite grey in either matte or gloss. I just went with the matte finish because it all comes premixed and you don't have to worry about adding anything or mixing in gloss etc. Just pop the can open, stir it and spray it. I also picked up a few lessons when spraying the fiat so I might beable to answer some questions. I purchased the 4 gallon pro kit and have 3 gallons left. I might just spray the Tacoma.

    One complaint I have about the pro kit is that they don't include cleaners for the gun. Its all oil based so water doesn't effect it at all. Also you would think they would send a cheapo 3M mask with it, which they don't.

    When you guys do the rear bumper, are you taking it off, or dipping it on the truck?
