Hey guys. I don't usually come around this forum since I've gotten my 07, but since my friend is buying my 01, I thought I'd make it look a little more presentable before I hand over the keys. But I do not intend on spending THAT much. Not looking for perfection.

So here's how it looks now,

What I was thinking of doing, is plasti dipping the chrome bumpers/valence, skid plate on the bull bar, grill, black.

After I sand and prime the body rust on the gold sections, I was thinking of just plasti dipping where it is gold instead of paying for a real paint job. Since the bumpers would also be matte, I figure it can't look that bad can it? Not worse than the gold it has on it anyways. Id also like to find a set of stock used headlights and a grill.

Let me know what you think please.

I already ordered (can't get it locally) 12 cans of black for my old set of rims and extra for misc things. This is a misc thing lol. Id like to at least try the bumpers to see how it looks.

There's a place in Ontario that professionally dips. 8 coats, quoted me 1350 for the Yukon. It would probably look decent if done by a 'pro'.
