Where did you come up with the lighting behind Bronco emblem?

How expensive would it be to hydro dip the grill? Found this while searching for pics. Would like to see it on a grill without the skull

I’m curious to find that out myself. The guy who did the wrap is going to be buying the hydro dipping machine one day soon, so I dont have a clue at this point

Did you sand it smooth?

Nope, he just applied some extra adhesive first then used a heat gun and roller once it was on to get it to really sink in

Wow this looks awesome! Depending on how well you have the wrap tucked around the edges i think it will hold up well! I just would not leave it on for more than 2 years as it will start to become brittle and can be a big pain to remove. I am definitely planning on wrapping my Big Bend grille this spring once it warms up here in Ohio! I am thinking about going with a Satin Black

I just put on my gear america shackles. Did you have any issues with the spacers? I put on one tiny one and one medium one (left and right) but it was very difficult to do. First time putting on shackles, curious what you did and if you had any secrets.

That’s exactly what I did, one small, one medium. That’s why they come with the various sizes as mount point widths do vary bumper to bumper.

These guys will charge about $250 to do a grill if you ship it to them.

Perfect Thanks!

I think a clear/satin finish plasti-dip would be perfect for these grills. Especially the shiny black ones, WT in particular. Shadow Black HyperDip in particular might be perfect.

might be a dumb question but did you have to take the bull bar off to take the grill off?

grille looks great btw, how's it holding up still?

Holding up good so far and absolutely yes had to remove the bull bar
