Front valance?

[ImPrettySnazzy]

Is it worth the trouble to paint the front valance, I mean with all the worrying about it chipping. Every time I have seen it done its always gross and chipped.

Like color match or just flat black?

 

[ImPrettySnazzy]

not super flat, just to match my parking lights in my sig

I plasti-dipped mine

You're lifted, so it might last longer.

that looks clean loudhoe
i have had good experience with plasti-dip so that probably will be what i do.
what color is the plastic on the top of your bumper?

Olympic white, my body color...for now, HD front end in the works

If you want a black valance and don't want to worry about the paint, find a 2006 ltz suburban valance, they come black.

i got my front valance color matched and even colormatched the lower valance also so far its been holding up okay, although i dont drive it every day

here is a pic of it

if anything i would buy a Z71 valance, but with my body lift i already had to chop up my existing one and don't really feel like dealing with that again.

Bed liner is also a great idea

thanks guys for all the great pics and ideas

Thanks It was a lot of cut and hacking.

Another user on here recommended just clean the area then hit it with some paint for plastic. I did that and it has held up very well for three to four months. Just two or three coats and that's it.

i wouldnt recommend it, it looks like chit over time.

^^THIS. I put one on my Suburban about 2 years ago. One of the best appearance mods I have done to my truck.

i did mine with krylon fusion semi flat to match the bumper extender
