I vote #2! You had asked how I did mine do I'll answer here. I used thin 1/4" tape and followed the body lines around the fender and lower body line to get smooth lines and then went back with thicker tape to make the line wider for more masking. Sorry that's hard to put into words. It takes a long time to make it perfect but it was well worth it.

Possibly. You will have to do a lot of prep on the chrome to get good adhesion.

I finally got some Iron Armor (bed liner) for my birthday. Now i just need to wait for better weather and get some good paint rollers or try it with the few paint brushes i got but that dosent sound that fun to me.
Anyone use this brand?
If so how is it after lots of sun exposure ?
Anyone know what paint rollers that will hold up to bed liner?

I used Armaguard. I spray bed liner at work, so I did my '05 all up.
