Love that truck when are you gonna paint the doors from bumper top to the other to match?

 

[HARDTRAILZ]

The Photoshop of that looked too jeep but I may do a couple inches of lower doors. To hide some scars. Want the hood all white first

 

[Aarkon]

You could just plastidip it and drive it for a while and see which you like better everything seems different in person

 

[HARDTRAILZ]

Plastidip blows to remove...

 

[Aarkon]

I just redid my rim yesterday and it peeled right of after a couple months

 

[HARDTRAILZ]

My hood SUCKED to peel. Took bug n tar remover.

 

[Playsinsnow]

Could the heat of the hood, engine bay, helped cake the Plastidip on? Seems some with dip on the wheels and bumpers/grille come off sooner than the owner wanted Peeling and all.

I remember Dave saying he had to pressure wash his of his rims

I found spraying the plasti dip with WD-40, letting it sit for about 10 minutes, and then using a pressure washer to blast it off works well. The WD-40 breaks it down enough you might even be able to use a garden hose to spray it off.

That is correct, 2700psi and some WD-40.

Did you use Glossifier on top of the plasti dip? I would imagine that would seal it better, kinda like a clear coat.

Plasti Dip is an awesome product. I've seen a lot of great work done. You need to do 5-6 layers of Plasti Dip for it to properly peel it without it becoming a hassle and proper prep is key! They do sell dip dissolver though, for worse case scenarios.

Plastic Dip sucks.

Had at least 6-8 coats.

Been on the plasti forum n it does not trump my personal miserable experience with it.

 

[Aarkon]

I never used the glossifier

 

[TexazReece]

I'm getting ready to peel the dip off and go with getting them painted. BEWARE of that plasti cleaner offered it will ruin your painted calipers but will clean the dip pretty damn good. The glossifier adds a bit of gloss to the dip which is cool but I must say white is definitely hard to keep clean

I figured that would be your biggest problem once I seen you painted your calipers and wheels white. I have enough trouble trying to keep my polished wheels and my black calipers clean

 

[TexazReece]

It's a pain . I just washed my truck saturday and they are back to that dirty look already but the rain accelerated the dirty look this time lol. So this weekend I'll be repainting my calipers

 

[Chevy4ever]

With the all yellow headlights and foglights...

Hard to see on this pic, but everything is yellow when driving at night.

[Chevy4ever]

You have a sexy truck, do you blame them Looks like your rear step pad could use a nice coat of plasti dip Mine was about as faded as yours.

Very nice touch with the carbon fiber. Looks good

 

[Chevy4ever]

Thnx, I though I'd give it a try. It is a 4-D print with some sort of perforated vinyl, so you never get any bubbles.

Actually believe it or not I just dipped it last week but that stuff is a dirt magnet on my dirt roads[emoji17]

 

[Aarkon]

Sorry for the double post but I finally washed her

You need to start posting more in the LED mod thread. Do you have your lights in the wheel well wired to a switch or to the parking/headlight?

 

[Capote]

I will definitely start posting there I just feel like an amateur compared to some of the stuff I've seen the other guys do. I wired the front ones to the Ignition fuse under the hood, and the rear ones to fuse #50 under the left rear passenger seat fuse box. My next project is putting some LED's in the engine compartment to give some light while working under the hood. I'll post that one in the LED Mod Thread for sure

May03LT did a nice mod by adding LED lighting under the hood. I cannot remember if he made a video or just posted in the LED mod thread

Yup I saw that mod of his , I believe he has just the picture. I was also thinking of putting some strips along the bottom of the door frame, sort of like courtesy lights. But I wanna wire them up so they only come on when the interior lights are activated by opening one of the doors. That way they turn off with the closing of the door as well. It'd be a pretty sweet mod to do.

Parking for the day after a quick run through the car wash

 

[jomulk56]

Got both my GMTs in the garage today. Only took 2 days to clean out the garage so I could too.

Some new bling for my but. What do you think?
