    Welcome to the site! I noticed too that the pictures were two different trucks :laugh:

    I find it funny how in the video she's going on and on about how "straight" everything is on the back "except this minor scratch on the tailgate" but never mentions the obvious fact it's totally bowed. Fail lol. I personally would have run far and fast from this truck but as long as your happy, all good :) It can be a challenge, but try not to let the creepers chase you off. :)

    Plasti-dip is pretty much rubberized spray paint. A lot of people use it to spray on their emblems. It's good because all you have to do is clean the surface and it sticks, don't even have to take the badges off. You tape off a square around the badge and spray, then use a toothpick to peel off what's on the body. It's totally reversible.

    Yep, and once the tailgate is open, takes just about as long to pull the tail lights. If you live in a small town tho, don't worry about it.

    Then you will get a shit ton of responses ;)

    :rofl: been a member for a couple days and has full green squares!

    Anyway, plastidip is great when you want a real visual on how something will look painted. With good prep, will last quite a while too, but not as good as paint.

    Teal is a bit of a odd choice in color but it might look allright so I say do your emblems , center caps , mirrors , and hood scoop if you don't like it just peel it off
