I have an 05 NBS Z71 Suburban. Under coated my hitch assy today because it looked like garbage from the flaking paint. Got me thinking about doing it to the grey lower plastics. My truck is the *pewter* color. Anyone have any pics of any Z's with the plastics blacked out? Thanks!!

I was wondering how this looks as well. NAPA has a bumper trim spray paint that's halfway between undercoating and a thick sealing spray paint and they have a few colors available like white, black, and grey. Been thinking of doing my lowers in the white to make mine a full monochrome look. Hopefully someone has some pics we can check out.

I've never seen it on a pewter one but have seen it one white and they did theirs black and it looked soooo much better. I would assume it would have the same effect on yours.

I sprayed all my trim plastic with MHT bumper coating. Its black with the "rough" anti-skid feel to it. I take it off road a lot so the take a beating. I even painted the step bars to match. Sorry for the picture size.
