Thanks guys! I will get a close up shot this afternoon. In my experience with PDip, you can lay itxown smooth but I sprayed this outside where it was windy...it caused a bit of a texture that I actually think looms better on the grill. It makes it look less like painted plastic to me if that makes any sense. Also helps with the matte appearance I think.

Looks great, I'm still wondering how long this stuff will last in real everyday driving.

Thanks! I laid down 4 coats and after a week of weather and about 300 highway miles it looks great, no signs of wear or rock chips!

Wow i like how it turned out Im thinking about doing this to my grill and the chrome trunk finisher. Do you have any closer shots and was it a fairly easy process to use the plastidip?

+1 especially in red. The chrome highlights the area around the grille and sets it apart from the red surface areas. Looks good!
