Good thing you can peel it off, looked better before...But I am bias and think plasti dip looks cheap, probably because it is cheap lol.

I like plasti dip because there are so many kinds of colors that you can choose from its insane.. But to each their own. I like the color but prefer the silver

Saw it at main street cruise Saturday night, but didn't get a close look before he left.. Looked pretty good from a short distance though.

I think it looks good. Take some nite shades to the corner markers to complete the effect.

I guess I never realized how many colors you have to choose from. My wife has a spray tan machine that looks pretty much like the machine that's sold in that kit. I might have to play around with it and see if it would work.

this. i hate to bash, but that was a gorgious car, and sadly the dip makes it look like a jr high kid owns it, just cheap. ive seen a few "dipped" cars in person, and frankly unless the paint was total trash and ur a tight budget, i dont like any of it. but it aint my car.

Go back and look at the before pic again, it wasn't doing too well. probably worse in person


I do generally feel the same way about plastidip though. But as a temporary thing I could understand it, since I'd much rather rock a plasti dipped car than one with a really bad paint job.. Not much that looks worse than failing clear coat. Looks like you guys did a good job. The car would look a lot better lowered and with the lights tinted!
