The grille is plastic so preparation is key...i used duplicator adhesion promoter and duplicator bed armor...sand the surface really well and make it really rough I used 180 grit sand paper and skateboard grip tape...clean the surface really well I used 90% rubbing alcohol which helps remove any remaining clear coat and cuts the paint a little as well giving u a good surface to adhere to...then make sure the piece is completely dry and PATIENTLY apply between 5 and 8 thin coats allowing the Bedliner to set just a little in between that way u won't get the runs haha...then let cure overnight and reinstall....you can follow those steps for pretty much anything plastic that you want to bedline....let us know how it goes!!
1. Removed grille and then signal lenses.
2. Roughed up grille a little with 180 grit
3. Applied one coat of Rustoleum Plastic Surface Primer (let dry one hour)
4. Applied three coats of bedliner (let dry two hours between coats)
5. Put it all back together
