Default Plasti-Dip and a detail

I've always been a DIY person on cars. Always buying stuff at Home Depot for uses it was definitely not made for, but somehow I missed the Plasti-Dip craze till just now. They only had 2 cans or i would have done the mesh part of the grill and the bumper cap to hide the fading. You can't really tell in the pic but the chrome caps had little pits in them, the dip covered it up pretty good.

Went from this


to this

Looks good. I ended up dipping the mesh and the chrome center bar on my grille, loved it so much I had it painted. Also try doing the lower valance, looks good in black.
