    Pulling them off is hardest, really gotta tug them towards the front of truck. With plastidip I do a very light coat at first cuz if you spray to much it runs. Then a few more thin coats and then I spray a little heavier. I did probably 6 coats on these mirror covers.

    As he said above by Otis, except I bought a restoleum can trigger from Lowe’s for like $6 to ease the grip and hand motions and did like 8 coats just to be sure

    Has anyone ever found an unpainted mirror cap that is compatible with mirror side markers? My SX (SR) had black mirrors, but they seem impossible to find with turn signal cutouts unless you're buying color matched pieces.
