Painted/Wrapped Tailgate Applique
I spent a few hours taking the damn thing off only to get turned down by a wrap shop AND a paint shop. Apparently they cannot wrap it because of the letter indentations. They paint shop refused because it is chrome.
Does anyone know what these are made of?
Thanks!

However painting it is more than fine. Even if it was chrome (its not) some sanding down would suffice. I had mine painted and a million other people have as well. You can ship it to companies that do it regularly on our trucks (RetroCustomz/PrecisionRetrofits) I had mine done at a local body shop. I would suggest doing that as well. I'm going to assume you went to the biggest body shop in town to get it done that turned you down? I've had similar experience in the past. It's not because they can't do it, its because its a money thing for them. The time spent to do that won't make as much as other projects they have in line.
