    Today I got rid of that ugly grey bottom valance on my taco , was going to paint it but had herd so many people doing the plasti dip thing so tought I would try it simply because if I screw it up it just peels off, I was lazy and just taped off the valance instead of removing it along with the lights and bar . Turned out great I think and only cost me about $10 (1 roll of tape and1 can plasti dip) and a couple hours labor. Comments welcome !!

    What did you use to prep the valance before spraying on the PD. It looks great and want to do the same to mine.

    Looks great... I always stare at the chin of my girl and think "wow, glad you have nice headlights and a decent ass"

    I'm definitely going to have to consider doing the same. I saw another thread about breaking clips on trying to remove the valance. How do your lines look at the edging up close?
