Default Underwing painted! For now....

Just finished painting the underside of the wing with spray Plasti-dip. And yes, i made the worst painters mistake, the can i used was like half gone so I only got 1 coat on and ran out, drove to Home depot and got more and got home while it was still wet and finished with more coats! I kinda like the flat black or satin, whatever its called, so I may peel it off and do it permanently.


First coat


Almost dry after all coats

Do you have any shots from further away? Or from a side view.

Yes that was me. I didnt like the clear coat I put on it. I'm going to rewrap it when ever there is a nice day and no rain. And then my dad knows a guy at work that can do the clear coat for me.

Hmmm, I didn't think I'd like it, but it looks good. I think it would look badass with a ram air hood that has blackbird stripes...hmmmm, I just might have to steel this idea.

Thanks for those further shots. I also agree with suggestion of the blackbird stripes.

I wish I'd have seen this a while back when I had the car out of commission and could have removed the wing more easily =/ Looks good, man. I'm definitely considering this as well.
