I just pulled it off, used a wax/degreaser with a scrub brush and used Duplicolor trim paint, the same paint was also used on the grille as well.

Thanks for the compliment.

Thanks bud, I will admit I am not a professional painter by any means.

That looks clean man, I wish mine had the darker lower valence so I could do the same but I have the tan one.

I would just paint them both, thats what I did.

Not sure yet, the rear plastics will be getting the same treatment next I beleive. The new front works well with my N-Fab nerf bars and the gloss black steel wheels I have on the truck right now. I need to get some good pics of what she looks like right now, raining today though.

Nice job man, looks great from here.

Looks much newer now. I was thinking of getting all the tan on my Black and tan eddie bauer painted black to give it the Limited look. Like CanadaExpy. The tan trim actually looks gold up close.

 

[nvycrmn]

well if you decide to go black, it really isnt that hard, just make sure you do a good prep.

 

[ELVATO]

Nice. I really like the way the trim paint lays down. Comes out nice and even.

 

[starbuck478]

looks good man i did the same thing for my front and rear bumper along with the lower side pannels. it adds alot to the custom look of the truck and is pretty inexpensive to do yourself

 

[fiveohpoepoe]

MUCH cleaner. You did a great job

 

[Lane24]

Very nice. I like that look.
