did you paint around the sides and stuff as well? Any close up pics of the grill? My runner is dark red and I think this black will look great on it. Of course I want to do it today but a big storm is rolling thru. weather ruins everything. lol

I've owned a spray in bedliner business for about 3 years now and we have done some cool things with our product. You should see some of the Jeeps we have done (inside and out), bumpers, toolboxes, etc. The possibilities are endless. We can also color match vehicles, so its been pretty neat so far.

These types of products work great for what they are intended for: protecting your vehicle. Take your time and as was stated earlier - pay a lot of attention to the prep of whatever you are applying it to. Don't try to go too fast or it will look like crap later, or worst, won't stay on.

Have fun

You mean the sides of the grille? If so, no, I just painted the "surfaces" that I thought would look good. Everyone that has seen my rig comments on how they like the Herculiner. The guys at Discount Tire asked about it as well.

Did I mention to use the UV Topcoat?

well i just got a brandy new chrome black bumper that i want to keep chrome while its new..main reason for doing this is because i want to protect against rust, and i need a body line to do it and i think if i go as high as you, snafu560 it might look a little funny. yours looks really good though nice color combo. i dunno maybe someone can photoshop me some pictures of some different ways to paint my truck.

You should probably start a new thread with a photochop request...
