Looking good JConner...but I have to ask...what are HDMI ports in relation to pick up trucks?
take a look at the tail pipe cover compared to this. Once you see it, you cannot un-see it.

Ahhhh.... I got ya now! I wasn't even looking at your exhuast tips. Let us know how the hyper / plastic dip last with the extreme heat.
 

I have never used the Plastic dip before. Is it as easy as you guys make it sound? Just cover the area around the letters and spray. Then if you happen to get some on the paint it peels off with a razor?

It’s easy. Don’t skimp on the number of coats. If you don’t put it on thick enough it’s a bear to peel off. Use a toothpick, skewer, or plastic pic for the fine work not a razor blade.

I’ve never used Plasti Dip. After watching videos from Dipyourcar I went with the Hyperdip. According to them it requires more coats but leaves a smoother, more factory finish.
 

Finally hyper dipped my emblems and painted my exhaust tips. The 4’s on the AT4 emblems aren’t perfect, but I’m sure they’ll be fine for a while. Have to redo the front gmc emblem though. Had some issues and ran out of time on it today.

Overall I’m really happy with the look and ease of this mod.

I opted to peel the red out of the GMC. I left the side badges all black after trial and error as most said it is hard to peel the 4 and make it look good.
