I couldn’t stand the chrome tips on the truck when all the other accents were black.

Prepped the chrome surface with some sandpaper, primed then painted. I am happy with the outcome.

How many coats did you do? It looks good.

How many coats did you do? It looks good.

Three coats of primer and three coats of paint.

Looks good, I need to follow suit.
I heard from others that had success with plasti-dip so I went that route. Guess I didnt lay down enough coats because they are already peeling.

Big differance, looks right. Should have been like that from the factory

Anyone who said they plasti-dipped their exhaust is full of it! Did my 2012 sport pretty much the same way jrockdetroit did. Instead of sandpaper I used one of those greenies for dishes. Hit it a few coats of high temp primer and high temp flat black, it looked stock and bad ass!

Why high temp? The exhaust tips really don’t get crazy hot

Think of it as a preventative measure. Plus you can use the rest to touch up your barbeque afterwards...lol

Got ‘em done and they really do look much better in black.
