Looks good man.. I have done all of my plastic; mirrors, front valance, rear bumper plastic, rear lights, 3rd brake light, etc. the front bumper was the most difficult, you definately need a good buddy to help ya take it off and put it back on.. I used 1000 grit sand paper, then PrepSol to clean it well. Then a Palstic Primer by Krylon, and last there Plastic Paint it has worked very well for me, 3yrs later and 40,000 miles with everything painted, I figure its not to bad for about $50.00 and sum weekends.. Nice job though take your time, you'll get out of it what you put into it..

Looks great! Funny....I plan to do the opposite...paint the chrome black and keep the "teflon" colored cross bars. They seem to match the bumper cover and air dam. You did a nice job.

Thanks Nick. How's the wife doing? Better I hope. Mine has surgery Monday morning. Hope your's is recovering quickly. The offer still stands...if I can do anything - just holler and I'll climb the grade to Fletcher!

Thanks Buddy!!! She is better, although sleeping still poses some issues as the nightmares continue. I wish your wife all the best, and will continue with my prayers for you and her. I cant wait to meet you(and the other Carolinians) at our first CPA Meet!! Or sooner if you'd like. Keep me up on your wifes surgery and conditions. As of right now, I don't need you to climb the grade, but, if I need to come down the grade, don't hesitate to ask bro!!!!

Looks real good! I agree with you, paint up the lower valance to match. In fact I would do the same with all the trim pieces, especially the trim that runs along the top of the bedrails. There was another post about a week ago in which the guys painted their trim peices and door handles up with black fusion paint. I actually looked pretty good. One of the trucks was black like yours and turned out awesome. He even painted the trim piece that goes between the hood and front windshield. I'm going to do the same thing with mine when I get time.
