Thanks for the opinions guys, good or bad. In broad daylight you really can't see the difference in the colors. I'll try to get another pic posted. It only shows up in that one picture because I was 4" from it with my camera. Only time someone will be that close to my bumper is if they are rotating my tires.

I may or may not leave it on, the jury is still out. For those of you who have done the WDT, what is the best combo of plasti-dip to get it to match. I really think you can only tell the difference on mine because the bumper and fender come together in the corners. If it weren't for this I bet it would "appear" like some of the others I've seen on here.

What if I removed the dip on the lower piece and left the bowties and strip around the fog lights?

I might peel the air dam part and leave the fog light chrome dipped.

It is almost better not to see that ridiculous air dam... The black tends to blend in a bit more. I guess it is needed to get the highway mileage. But really takes away from the "truck" look.

Would you consider dipping the chrome grill surround?

Agreed with the air dam. I swear these things are about twice the depth as the late models!!! Pretty aggravating! Even the Escalade has this monster black plastic air dam for the white diamond (and all other colors). I am definitely considering ripping out the air dam dip but for sure leaving the fog light dip on unless I get some chrome tow hooks. And why didn't these come standard either?

I did consider doing something with the grill but most likely leave the surround alone. I between each of the horizontal chrome grill pieces there is a small black piece. I was thinking about dipping all of those to give it more of a color matched look instead of all chrome.
