What's up guys-
Brand new here, first thread. First, was wondering if any of you have had any problems plasti-dipping the grille. I want a clean black finish, but I'm concerned that if I have to peel that plasti off it'll be a nightmare with how grated the grille is. I was looking into what else rustoleum has to paint it myself, and they seem to have a number of pretty durable paints, but just not sure what to do!
Also, planning a road trip for a few months, gonna pray that I can find a used bed cap for the 6ft, and build that mudder fugger out. If any of you guys have built yours out/have some pics they would be very much appreciated, seeing as the possibilities are endless. I was also looking at what kind of kitchen setup to make, but don't have the cash for a cap AND a new swingout bumper. Thanks
