Default Plastidip Fun





Hey whats up guys, jus wanted to show you what you can do with about 5 cans of plastidip and a couple days work. The two colors i used were black for the ground effects kit and a special color (Anthracite Grey from dip your car on the wheels to make it look black but when you look close it has a metallic grey look. Ill put some before and after photos on here also. in all I probably spent 50 dollars doing some emblems, ground effects and wheels.

I'm thinking of doing this myself in the next few weekends-I've got aluminum wheels now which I like, but they're incredibly difficult to keep shiny, and I think the matte black will look good.

Anyway, I'm wondering if you removed the wheels to do that? It looks like you have the lugs dipped as well-if you have to remove the wheels, won't the dip strip off? Just curious...

The Wheels stayed on the car and was fairly easy to do. I will be changing the color of the wheels and body kit soon. The body kit is black and wheels are anthracite grey. I just covered the rotors and calipers and the valve stem and just sprayed over everything and there are lug covers so the lugs are not covered.
