Default plastidip bra

no, i didn't spray my wife's ***** with plastidip (but it would make for a sexy bikini for the beach, hmmm...) i've been thinking about doing a plastidip front end bra for my impala ss. i hate all the rock chips i've been picking up, and as we all know the traditional touch up paint doesn't cover so well. i've heard of the dr. colorchips touch up, and may end up going that way, but i wanted to get some feedback on what you all thought of doing a front end bra in plastidip. it would cover the chips well, as another member showed with his wheel roadrash, and it could be reapplied as needed. what do you guys think? maybe someone on the forum who is good with photoshop and really bored could show us all what it would look like?
feedback please!

plasti dip is dull and rough it would look bad with smooth shiny paint. Your better off getting dr color chips then going to your local tint shop and getting the clear bra.
