I think that Chrysler is parked too close to that Ford.

Sick Maxima though.

That looks great! And is making it harder to decide what to do with mine. Not to highjack this thread but how do you think it would look to do the same thing but with the Anthracite Metallic color? Looking for something that isn't monochrome (though yours is making me reconsider) but more of a subtle two tone.

Again, please let me know if I should be starting my own thread.

Plastidip

All it took was 6.5 cans of plastidip, blue painters tape, newspaper and patience.

I watched 4-5 YouTube videos on different applications. If you screw up, peel it off.

Cost about $40, can't beat that.

Looks really great man! I hate all those chrome pieces as well and I'm planning on plasti-dipping my grille this weekend. Considering you used newspaper and painter's tape, I'm guessing you didn't remove all the pieces off your car. Correct me if I'm wrong. I can't decide if I should plasti-dip or vinyl wrap the window trim.

I didn't take any of the chrome pieces off, I covered the car really well, and painted the ones that I need to do. I would definitely go with plastic dip, but that's my opinion. Less payout, and it still looks good !

actually no, the wheels were not that bad. I had the most trouble surprisingly with the chrome light bar above the license plate. It was a pain to peel off the plastidip without pulling part off the chrome. I did it 2 times before deciding to take the whole piece of and spraying it seperately. It comes out real easy btw under the trunk lid. 3 nuts and unclipping 2 wires for the lights and the backup camera.

Very nice! Any plans to do the taillights? Stillen lip ad drop and you'll be set. Oh - hit up KMoney for some custom headlights - that'll really set it apart.

Thanks for this information!! Will come in handy when I got to do mine.
