    not shopped, it's that color right now. I like it, but I want to redo it to make the finish smoother. I might switch around colors every few months for shits n giggles.

    Just finished the grill, lower valance, and rear bumper. With only two cans. I just took my time. I love this stuff and if I;m over it it comes off.

    Buy it, ship it to me, I ship to you. Or buy it and have it shipped someone closer to you.

    Nice job on the plasti dip...I have been thinking about doing my chrome bumper on my silver DC...did you have to do anything to the bumper before using the plasti dip on it? Also, are there other colors than black?

    To cut his grass right next to my truck n my rims were covered in that left over grass

    Haha, sounds good! I would like a matte finish on mine though. Want to do it eventually but then I'd have to take off the TRD ZRU bedside decals and SockMonkey doesn't make them anymore
