Default Plasti Dip rocker panel and sides of 02 Black TA (need opinions only did one side)

So just as the title says I plasti dipped my rocker panel (needed to do something previous owner took a curb with it and scratched it to hell). Decided to do the bump out on the front and rear bumper to match.

Unfortunately the sun was going down on me so tomorrow I will try and get some better pictures in direct sun. But, just need some opinions because I only did one side and not going to do the other unless others agree that it looks good.

Wanted it to resemble something like this camaro.

I like it a lot actually!

Yup, definitely loving it! Looks more modern now (even though satin is a retro thing)...

Looks a lot better than i thought it would. Always hated the 5th gens with the unpainted ground effects like what you posted. Yours looks good though.

Seriously sexy. Great job defining the lines in the proper place on the bumpers as well.

Thanks guys, I'm going to try and knock out the other side after work tomorrow and then I'll try and get some pictures before the sun sets.

These pictures just don't do it justice. Blends perfectly with the Splitter and my CETA Mod bumper.

Well, just looked at the weather tomorrow and we have a winter weather advisory. Go figure move to Arizona to get rid of cold weather two months ago and have gotten snow twice since. So... it may be a few days before I can get the other side done.

6LE, the stripes would merge really good with a diffuser on the back... *hint, hint*. Heh, submitted my pic on your facebook post for that stage one, really good idea working with emblem pros, going to be awesome to see that badge on some T/A's and Camaro's.

Snapped a few photos on my lunch break. Yeah I know car is a bit dirty and got some finger prints on rocker from install but when I paint the other side Ill clean the car up real good and take better pic's. Heck if enough like it maybe ill make a write up, even though its pretty simple, I would like to see it on like a white f-body or SOM. Good thing is if it turns out bad you can always peel it off.

I really like that. You should either do it in real paint, or have it done. Looks awesome, wish the car was clean too so I could see it but I get the idea. Props for something new. Maybe I am just blind, but is the CETA mod done too? That would be awesome if it was. I like it a lot!

I may try this to do the rear, lower fascia on mine to see if I like it. Good way to tell if I'll go ahead with painting that section! I too like the look on the car you have

Yup did the ceta mod with Plasti dip about a month ago. did my lip months ago and not even a chip. Put this stuff on thick it, won't go anywhere. I'll clean her up real soon. You know how a good clean takes a few hours lol.
