Nice job I like the matte black .....I almost did the matte black originally but I went with the silver to match the z71 front bumper

I noticed that...it does look better matching that front bumper  (y)

I thought about doing vinyl as well.  You had any problems with scratching or the edges getting messed up?

I haven't had any problems yet ....I've had it on the about 5 months through the winter but just like plasti dip it's cheap enough to replace if something does happen
 
LOL. I guess we better start a nation then As I plan to possibly do black as well with a slight twist to keep it original when it gets warm enough around here.
We had a bit of snow of al things yesterday. :E:
 
Gonna do this soon. I am going to try to mimic the angle of the rear cladding as close as possible. I will probably cut the angle with cardboard and make sure its straight and trace tape along the fender in the same angle

That was my original plan to put them at the same angle as the rear cladding but when I had it laid out on the fender it just looked too long and stretched out so I backed it off a bit.
 
Yeah, I just guessed with mine.  I mean, that's the great thing about plasti-dip, right?  If you don't like it just pull it off and try again!
 
hey just ordered 2 cans of flex blue todo accents and stuff my bow tie on my charcoal avalanche possibly thinking the wiper blade arms anybody done those and or have different color ones?
 
hey I did stries and finially got around to the power pari though my stripes looked a little different they way farther forward oh well and my front one is 3'' and rear is 4'' and this was  Ice9812 idea so here it is

Your stripes are slanted opposite from everyone else's.  :)

LOL
To each his own but yeah I also prefer them slanted the other way.
Perhaps Dakotawilk want to go against convention. :laugh:

I ran my stripes backwards on my BMW for a long time, I liked the way it looked on my fenders :D

Hey, this way you're not like everybody else.  There's something to be said for uniqueness. 
 
I'm thinking of joining the Plastidip army, lol. My upper cladding is starting to fade on my '10 Z71. I was thinking of bedlining them, but i'm thinking the plasti is the better way to go.
 
I still can't figure out how to post large pictures :8: :8:..... Anyway.. I did my rims and emblems

Yeah man I've seen one of those close up. IMHO rhino lining an entire truck/car to me does not look cool at all...maybe a tank or some assault vehicle but domestic vehicles just don't look right covered in bedliner :)
