the flares use a couple of torx head screws, but they also use 2 sided tape to hold them to the body. be carefull not to pull the paint off the truck. use a little heat when you yank on them. i needed to touch up my bed cuz i didnt know i had me a little rust going on under them.

 

not to hyjack this, but i couldn't wait to spray my rims so i got some practice on my spare. debating on weather to do it this week rather then next month. seems like i used alot for just the spare. maybe 1 can a rim?

 

no prob, looks great on the newer wheel. one trick i did to get in those slots in the spokes was to spray from the backside of the rim. and you can really pour this stuff on w/o drips. what was that 3 coats?

 

yea i thinking the same thing by spraying on the back side but on the spare i didn't really care. and it was roughly 3 coats.

 

more paint means more pics. as some of you might know i've had the gutter grille
for a while, and now ive painted it black to match everything else black. doesn't stand out a whole lot, but now almost everything matchs. i can't tint the headlights
so maybe ill do the 3 emblems for now.


^mas bugs, i work at a swamp.

 

ahh thats that gutter guard from homedepot isnt it? i hated that chrome so i never bought it but plasti dip to the rescue.

another good idea for plasti dip: diff cover. im going to do that tmw.

 

You can get away with 1 can for 2 rims If you decide to throw on another coat. you will be surprised how much is actually in a can lol. 2 cans maybe 3 you'll be fine let it dry throw on another coat just to make sure you got it all then let it dry and install, GRAVY

 

 

sick. looks like it matchs the stripe good. better pics tomorrow?

o yea and paint the diff cover red imo. i took mine off did 2 coats primer and 3 coats rustoleum red paint.

 

yea, i finished up right as the sun was setting. only did 2 rims tonight. i messed up a little on the lip, may have to do some touch up. i ended up using about 1can a rim.
