Looks great. Did you just have your OEM Denali grille surround painted to match?

Thank you. Yes sir, stripped then painted. Also tripled the clear hoping to battle rock chips.

We used a curved tool like a flat screwdriver that curved on one end and shoved under the lip and lifted up on the chrome cap and it popped right off and we broke 0 clips. 4 per piece IIRC

I haven't plastidipped before, but from all of the videos I've watched you would be able to just peel the dip off of the sensors without having to tape them. Just have to do it slow.

Why do you need to peel the plasti dip off the sensors? The sensors work off sonar technology so paint or plasti dip on top of them has no affect. Mine have been dipped for a couple thousand miles now with out issue.

Any one have a truck like this but with chrome grill inserts? I'm curious as to how that would look.

I said that because he asked if the ones that plastidipped the bumper if they taped off the sensors. So I can only assume he doesn't want the sensors covered with plastidip.

What's a fair price to pay for color matching the front and rear bumpers, grille and headlight surround, fender flares and all emblems (these would be black). Currently I was speculating about $700 to 1000? Not sure I'm way off or right in the ball park.

I was quote $1000 for bumpers only about a month ago.

I was just quoted $500 for both bumpers. Thats if I pull the bumpers off the truck and bring them to the shop, I wouldn't prep them at all. Just remove them and reinstall them
