I think the more Black accents I put on the van the better that Plasti-dip front will look. Right now it's a little front heavy with the Black.
So I also bought a few more things and blow my budget out the window in the process but I couldn't resist and had to get it!! It still has to be made so probably 4-5 weeks and it will also be powder-coated black, same as the wheels. I'm getting it built without the brush guard, just the main bumper:
I'm also getting a rear bumper built, will look something like this with the addition of a spare tire rack that will hold the tire over the Driverside rear door.

Finished painting a few things, got all the center caps painted as well as the bow-tie up front.
Noticed that someone keyed my van...
I mean really?? It's a van, what possible reason someone could have for key'ing a van I have absolutely no idea. Anyways, I guess that means I'm doing something right!
So anyways, aside from all that, I continued masking off the lower parts of the van that I wanted painting...
And then started with the coats...
And after 4-5 coats I ripped off the masking tape and newpaper and was left with this...
Then I installed some clear corners that I was able to pick up today from someone local that I found on ebay.
Started with one to see how different/better they would look, I think they look much better than the Amber ones!
And then the second one...
And that's it, that's where I am right now. I pretty happy with it so far, I'm still debating what to do about the upper half of the van but I think I'm going to cover the whole top half of the van black, Euro style. So basically draw a horizontal line from where the A-pillar starts by the hood, all the way the where the bottom of the tail lights, and everything from those two points on up... paint black. I would also black out the tails or at least tint them pretty good.
Luckily I had one, and it happened to be the right size)...
