I did my grand cherokee wheels quite a while ago. They have held up great, to everything that has been thrown at them.

Its funny how a little change in color makes a BIG difference! Looks much better with the wheels done.



I finally got around do doing my front bumper (need to get more and do the back). Came out pretty good but like someone had said before, its harder to get good even coverage on something bigger. But thats fairly easy to correct by spraying an extra coat or two over normal.

And for anyone keeping track that's now my mirror caps, grill shell, winter wheels, and front bumper all plasti-dipped.

Thanks Will, should look even better when I get the bumpers powdercoated and add HD hood after winter is over.

I would do the plastic around the tow hooks as well, bring it all together the same color black. Still looks amazing

I want to do that but after doing my grill shell, it seems that it doesnt bond well to concave areas once it starts to dry. Kinda pulls itself up and off the surface.
