    First time working with plasti dip at this level. Not bad I need to clean it up in the morning. I think it looks pretty good. If I end up not liking it I can just peel it off :)

    Nice solid coverage, even though the photo makes it look whiteish in the middle under the license plate. Tools 5 coats of black and 3 clear/glossifier.

    Looks good. (y)

    Needs some black mesh behind the grill openings to increase the blackout effect?

    Added benefit is it'll protect your inverter and radiator coils from damage from rocks that might get through the grill openings.

    You and hundereds of owners have discovered Prissy's look much better with the front 'bumper' blacked out to match the grill. Wonder if Toyota figured that out yet?

    They figured that out when they started selling the car. In Japan you can order the car with a black bumper cover.
