The back piece isnt a pain to take off but you def need to start at one end and work your way across. Im gonna get my gopro on a tripod and start making some videos for you guys when I do stuff.
 






another question.

did you guys use the glossifier to add a gloss finish or just leave it flat?

also what method did you use to peel the dip from the ford logo?
 






I just ordered the glossifier from amazon 10 minutes ago. Lol. I used a utility knife and ran it along the seam on top and then just peeled it off. It's still crazy to me how the plasti dip knows where to come off.
 






Last question.

Did you guys protect the radiator or anything behind the front grille before doing it?
 






Yes took the screws out from the piece on top of the grille and placed cardboard inside covering the openings on the grille.
 






yes yes yes yes by all means put a piece of cardboard between the grille and radiator you will have to take some screws out but its not hard . I did not use glossifier because I like the flat look . If you don't block off the radiator you might be sorry and out alot of money
 






That's some good work on the grille.
 






Plasti-Dip

Looks awesome! How is it holding up on the grill?
 






Yes, please update on how it has held up (front and rear)
 






I plan on doing my grille soon.. After what I read, it guess I will just place a large piece of Cardboard between the Grille and Raditor and Spray.
Does that sound correct?
