I'm curious how it has held up after 4yrs if he still has the truck.
I don't know what you do for a day job BUT, you could teach the art of posting video content. It's nice to see someone that takes their time to not only show the process (clearly), explain how its done, show the actual products used do it at a pace that we can follow along. Great project... nd the bumper came out awesome as well (; THANKS!!!

A tip: watch movies on Kaldrostream. Been using it for watching loads of movies during the lockdown.

@Kyler Eric Yea, I have been using KaldroStream for years myself :)
Did this to my truck because it had a small dent in it. Didn’t want to replace it but cutting it out and putting in pod lights wired to the reverse ended up being a great idea. Don’t know how I did without them before!!! Been seeing this a lot lately… words gotten out. Aux reverse lights inserted into rear bumper. Very useful. Great job!!!!! Looks amazing!
Following this exact method right now on my 2014 F-150. Seems like the best way to do it out of the 100 other videos I watched. Thanks!

Thank you sir! Good luck! 💪🏻 I’m sure it’s going to turn out awesome 😎
Thanks for that video Sir, my painter said (chrome cant be painted) your video brought my hopes back and way cheaper than replacing the bumper and grill for the aftermarket black ones.
Now you need to do the same treatment to the mirrors. Also one of the grilles that says RAM would look pretty sweet all painted to match.
Very nice job! Been looking for a good spray can video. Very helpful results look amazing. I dig the light install as well.

End result looked good. Just two things you should consider next time you paint. All ways wash the part before sanding. If you don't you end up pushing contaminants into the item. Also please use a respirator. There is some wicked chemicals in paint. Well done video and it looked good.
This video makes a lot more since the. All the others! Thanks 🙏🏼
That truck is a perfect blend of rowdy and gorgeous.
Well Done!! Looks Badass!!
Makes me want to paint mine. Nice job

I am making a shopping list and heading out right now...
That really made the back end look beast. Everything’s tied up nicely now. I’d just say maybe the finishing touch would be to change out the license plate lights! Hope to see that.
The sandpaper to scuff it and scratch it to give an area for the paint to grip hold off and be able to sit and stay.
Love the look and style. Great job!

You did a great job and it looks fantastic! Looks better than factory. I think I would have added one led pod light to each corner of the bumper as well since it would not require any more real work and it would light up the rear sides of the truck when backing up as well. Anyway. it looks great!!!

The process is good.. I would sand the etching primer and add 2 coats before the regular lacquer primer, sanding between coats to remove scratches.. Also, invest in an inexpensive spray gun and buy good quality automotive finishing products. The crap in rattle cans does not compare. The results you got will last longer with quality products. For those of you who watch and wonder about matching color; Silver is hard to do because it has suspended metallic particles in the liquid binders. Also, there are about a million different silver shades. the size of the metallic particles will directly reflect how the light shows the color. Automotive paint, through a spray gun, can be mixed more accurately that what you will get from a spray can. Overall, the job was well done.. Please don`t forget the respiration protection... there is isocyanates in the paint that will cause health issues eventually.. Ventilation is a good idea as well.. The atmosphere can quickly become combustible... Thanks for the video.. It`s good to see people showing others what can be accomplished if you just wanna do it.
I like the video man keep up the good work I think it looks a lot better

Hey man did you do any sanding after applying the self-etching primer or did you move straight on to the automotive primer?
Great Video, about how much primer paint etc did you have to use??
About to try this for my 2007 Nissan Titan back bumper
You tackled some issues i was worried about and your end result looks fantastic! I too wonder about durability in the fiture of the paint.
It's like headlights in the back!
Well done sir 👍 Its officially on the to do list. Any clever ideas for taking a bend/tweak out of a bumper? Other than hooking up a chain and pulling it out with another truck.

I use 60 grit to scratch up chrome.....initially 😁
That's a great job! I always wonder why upgraded tires and don't for under the wheel wells. Seems pointless to just let debris pound your paint and it kinda looks "off". Please explain if you can. Thanks

Thank you man 🙏🏻🙏🏻
I'm wondering if you could set a separate wiring connection to be able to turn at least 1 set of those lights on with a switch without putting the truck in reverse. In other words, having both sets of lights to turn on when u set truck in reverse, & have at least 1 of the 2 sets to also be able to turn on by pressing a switch from the inside.
