    Wondering if anyone has painted or bed coated the factory rear bumper caps. Can’t decide on which route to go.

    I've seen a lot of people simply clean them up and then use PlastiDip or some type of bedliner spray. I've been meaning to pull mine off and coat them, not a huge fan of the chrome.

    There are a lot of people who've done this, both dipped black and using factory colors to color-match. I've seen it in several other threads, so I'm sure you can find all the details on it with some quick use of the search function. Not hard to do, and folks normally leave step-by-step instructions with pics.
