I did a lot of learning during the process so let's know if you have any questions!

Washed, waxed, polished the rims, shined the tires, scrubbed the interior, replaced the wiper blades (michellon blades FTW!) changed and treated the oil, treated the gas, organized the tool box and wedged a big ol K-bar in the dash! Woo!

Herculiner.
Very textured(4coats)
Id say yes, but its only been 2 days. So it needs more time to get worn in so to speak, but for now id say yes.
Im impressed, 29 bucks covered it all and it looks good. Imo.

Did you take them off to paint or did you just tape it off, and if you tapped how'd you get all the little inserts tapped?

Sorry I got so many questions lol

Oh and if you took it off, what was the process Ahaha
