That really looks great Chris, I'm surprised by how much I like how it turned out!

i've plasti-dipped my grill 3 times... had to peel the dip off after a couple of weeks, each time. i tried with the grill on and off... on another note, the glossifier does not cause the grill to look gray-ish, i've used the glorifier each time and it did gloss the matte plasti-dip look.

Thanks Steve! It's been a year now (or thereabouts) since I did this and it still looks like the day I did it. Has held up very well for nearly 30k miles.

nah, never took a picture of it plasti-dipped, which is strange for me. i used to take pics of everything i've done to my car. i believe the novelty is wearing off. i am patiently waiting on the 2016/17 model...
