Can anybody tell me what if any problems will occur if I took the black things that cover my bedrails and tailgate off? Is it hard to do, how is it done. I am trying to refresh the look of the black on my truck, so any help would be appreciated!
It will have a very unfinished look. Lots of holes. There are clips sticking thru the holes, these have to be squeezed as you pull it off. Many of us have painted them with Fusion to restore them.

So do you paint them on the truck and just tape off the bed or take them off, can one person take them off easily.......
It can be done either way, depending on how much taping off you want to do so that there is no overspray. Yes, one person can remove them. Care has to be taken so that the plastic prongs or tabs are not broken off. Fushion is a Krylon product. It's a paint that bonds well to plastic. Many have painted the cowl pieces as well. There is an example of how that looks in the How To section.
