you should make sure that its going to stick to plastic. you might need a some plastic etching primer or promoter. make sure you wipe away all oiley residue.

i plan on doing this to my roof and use the rain-rail as my belt line. once i get my lift installed i don't wanna have to worry about cleaning the roof.

good luck should look sweet.

Duplicolor adhesion promoter works for just about everything including plastics

I used the spray on bedliner for my bumber caps, flares, and trim. It worked great and looks great. I did it a about a year and a half ago and the only problem with it is on the fender flares. The bedliner has chipped off where the front tires threw rocks at the rear flares.
