    Today: Washed, clay bared, waxed and got the windows in and out, all by hand. Gonna look int a good DA for next time. lol. Didn't get to the inside, since I was loosing daylight and had to wait until this afternoon to start since that was the only way I could do all of that in the shade.

    Over the weekend: Rear differential breather mod, installed my new RCI skid plate, and bed linered the skid for the N-Fab bumper to tie it in with the powder coat.

    Yes. Its obviously not a smooth as paint or vinyl, but works for me. Ive found glossifyer seems to give a more texture finish, but I like the shine so I go with it. Its much flatter with just the plastidip. (Could just be my spray technique though)

    How many cans did you use? I may try and do this next weekend to hold me over until I figure out what rear bumper I'm going with.

    Thanks! I'm leaning toward the matching N-Fab rear, but don't like how I've seen the edges of the bed exposed. They have a picture of one on their website that has an extra bar and covers the exposed part of the bed in the rear. But I'm not getting a rear for at least a few months. Going to replace the steps with SDHQ sliders first. Then Methods to update the wheel department, and some suspension upgrades. Then she'll be done for a while.

    Did you have any issues putting these on? Specifically with the rear side where the gas tank is? Do you have a 38 gallon tank?

    Got mine on, but holy cow the rear driver's side was a pain.
