Re: face lift time
EZ liner is tits, seems to last a good while. Prep on the plastic is sort of key. My rear bumper step peeled but my wheels are in good shape after almost 2 years. Painted my custom front bumper with it too.

Re: face lift time
I did my back rack with it. Prep is important or it will peel away on smooth surfaces with scuffing.
I just did a quicky so will see how it holds up. I had it kicking around so thought I would give it a shot...

That looks great! I take it you can get this stuff at CT? I've got a few things that could use a coat.

Re: face lift time
Yep it's at CT. When you use it the distance of the can to the item you're spraying determines the texture of the finish.

More texture the farther back you go I take it?studum wrote:Yep it's at CT. When you use it the distance of the can to the item you're spraying determines the texture of the finish.
I've been wanting to redo my faded grill and darken my headlight trim, and I think you've really got me anxious to get that done now, and with that stuff.

Put the center silver piece back on,the grille looks awesome in person.. way better then before when it was all faded

Re: face lift time
Deciding on paint.I have a flat black right now I might go with.Although I picked up some black rocker guard that I did the roof rack crossbars with. It came out pretty good.The X is bald right now[no roof racks] and it's growing on me.Might put them back on only when I need them.
