    Your truck is really coming along! I did the same thing with my bumper and chrome grill surround, I hate the chrome! Those Toyos look good...are they the Open Country IIs?

    Hey, how do you feel about using bed lining on the wheels vs plasti dip? Getting them painted is another $ I don't want to drop at the moment

    Thanks man:)

    Well i only had two jack and no blocks or anything so it was about a two day project did the front two then let them dry over night then the rear two and let them dry untill the night and threw em on.
    could have been done alot faster but i wanted to wait the correct dry time to put them back on.

    Bed liner?

    Take your time with them what i noticed is it settles really nice and takes a sec to settle so dont try and cover the area at one time like paint just spray a bit even if it didnt get everything give it a chance to settle and let settle for like 15 min then spray again and again till its all coverd and just keep putting on coats on untill coverd and then re apply if needed it all evens out..
    And also watch the over spray make sure to cover the tires really welll
