Suuper easy. Pop the hood and push the clips on the back. Comes right off.

Just found this thread, learned all about plasti-dip, and I am totally going for it. But lemme get this right, it is removeable? If I paint my front bumper which is chrome, I can remove it.

YEP removable. If you get a good 4-5 coats it peels off pretty easily

I started getting mild splatter and had to keep cleaning the nozzle.

Some may have seen my mishap. Here is the aftermath. The issue, should I plasti over it like it is and let it go or what.

Also, the rear bumper is so rusted. You can kinda still see the small holes and issues. So I will probably rhino it. I thought the rubber texture might hide it. It doesn't lay on as thick as i thought.
Should I do the front bumper rhino instead of plastidip also.

Those who've done wheels and other exterior parts, how does it hold up going thru car washes?
I love a good ******** (pun intended) but will often run through a touchless for $5.00 to do a quick cleaning between proper wash and wax.
I want to do my wheels but won't waste my time if it won't hold up to my normal routine.

I have gone through tons of touchless car washes (don't use the ones with the spinny brushes, as they trap dirt in them and scratch like crazy)

That's awesome, thank you wermbang.
I'm gonna pull the trigger on some glossifier too, and try to get a "satin" effect like they show on their website. Ram Heads front and rear are gonna get the same treatment.
That should hold me over until I can get "real" wheels and tires.

I'm in!

I use this stuff on my atv parts all the time, it is the best $7:00 you can spend.

plan on doing the wheels first, not sure if I should do the hub cover or leave that chrome and do the rest black.
