Its a lot easier to look at everyone's trucks who already have it done but when you actually do it, you realize it sucks. The fumes alone will give you a buzz not to mention that the job requires a least a case of beer, more if you have people watching you. The main thing is that you really have to prepare the surface. The scotch brite pad they give you to scuff the surfaces is a joke, I only used it to get close to the masking tape. Everywhere else I used DA with 6 inch pad and 80 grit sandpaper. It took me about six hours to apply four coats in a heated shed and I still had a little over a quarter of a can left. The double sided tape is expensive for the fender flares ~$30. Overall I think it turned out good, there are some bright spots and some darker ones but they faded after a week when my brother Herculined his rockers.
And Here are the pictures:
