    Thinking about painting the hood scoop on my B. Red truck. Probably black, anyone done this? Would like to see some pictures.

    People vinyl wrap them, so it is reversible. Might be something to consider before painting.

    I dipped mine. If you go this route be sure to pull tape while it's still wet.

    I was going to ask that very question, didnt think peeling tape with Plasti-dip dry would work out so well... looks great!

    Thanks,
    Just make sure you spray it at all angles before it dries. I had a spot at the top of the hoodi missed. Saw it everytime I was behind the wheel had to touch it up.
