Really? On page 3 and nobody said Plasti Dip yet?? Well, in that case, PLASTI DIP!! wheels, grille, badges, trim pieces, anything. That stuff rocks.

Don't. Plasti-Dip will stain from mud and peel while you wheel. Plasti-dip is good to get your feet wet with whatever you want to black out, but once you've decided, paint it.

This was back in my stock days. Can't go through a wash now. Too many accessories hanging off the truck.

I plasti dipped my grille and went mudding on Sunday. The mud washed right off the grille without a trace. Also, if you're worried about it staining, a clear coat will solve it. I had my cladding on my old truck plast dipped for months with no staining or peeling. This includes a NJ winter.

My grille is the only thing left on my truck that's still Plasti-dip and it shows. I need to get time to take it off and give it a proper coat of paint

I passed Cali smog with it no problem. They are "musts" because they just are! Start modding then you'll figure it out.
