The lower plastic part of the front bumper is the valance.

Anyways, nice job. I'm about to do the same thing to my front bumper tomorrow. BTW I like how you blacked out those rims, they look sharp!!

Thanks, but no build thread. I've just posted everything I've done randomly as I did it. :) I would make one, but then everyone would know my secrets LOL.

Truck looks good!

Hey Boardmaster....I'm liking the paint job on the grill. So you just used a spray can of Plasti Dip right over the chrome and it came out like that? No primer or sanding or anything?

it looks awesome...I'm kinda thinking about doing the same to my Blazer. Just wanna get some info before i do it so i dont F it up haha.

Thanks

Boardmaster84 02-23-2012 02:48 PM

Yup just clean it and spray on the plasti-dip
