wow that looks great, how did you manage to not remove the bumper and still cover everything behind it. There doesn't seem to be any looks of overspray...unless you used a vinyl instead of paint

I masked off everything, that took the longest time but no breaking of pins and such. 
I started off with really thin coat. waited 20 minutes between each and did 5 layers. After the last coat I let it dry overnight.
The more the better in case you want to rip it out in one piece. Also, make sure the layers are thin so theres no run off. it's crucial since the chrome ring is not on a flat surface. and you can't do just 1 coat of plasti dip!!
all masked off
after 5 coats
g'luck!
