I used professional 3M rubberizer spray from pep boys for $7 a can. They had non-professional but it was not as big of a can and looked like lower quality. Took 2 cans and a few coats per wheel well. Clean/Tape everything off really well. I didn't paint the plastic wheel well liner. Came out looking really good. Also taped off the bump stop and axles from over spray. Hit the brakes with ceramic flat black paint. Didn't want to do too think on the hub since its a contact part. Don't want my lugs loosening up on me because of paint in-between it. I thought about rubberizing the windshield washer resi but the contact is already really close. Don't want the extra thickness to rub off.

(sorry for the bad photo comparison, I did the front one day and the rear at night under work flood lights)

I used the same stuff on mine... been thru several offroad expeditions and so on and still looks pretty good, about time for a small touch up though.
