Question

I am in the process of blacking out my truck as well, yours looks awesome! Can anybody give me some tips on the type of paint to buy to black out my badges and rims? Do I use high gloss, satin or flat? Also what brand name should I use? Thanks alot for your help!

Krylon Fusion satin black for the badges

the rims i would do in Matte black or flat black and you will probably need to get them powder coated rather than paint them since they are chrome or polished aluminum

You dont think the paint will stick? I've never attempted to paint chrome so I'm new to this.

satin black for all plastic pieces, Krylon as mentioned

I would have the wheels powdercoated...the paint wont last long or look very good without multiple re-applications

spend the extra money and do it right and then dont worry about it

I used Krylon Fusion Satin Black on my badges and running boards.

Here is my write up for the badges:

That looks really good not to often that you see a truck with those rims and lower profile tires look really nice
