I was a bit skeptical before I did it, but I'm pretty satisfied with the results. What do you all think?

That looks really nice! Works well with the blacked out grill, I find.

I like plasti-dip. You can do whatever crazy color you want without worry about destroying your resale value.
Just make sure you did enough coats (5-6 thick one on top of 1-2 thin base coats) or else you can't peel it easily.

Yes.
Now, I wonder if you could paint/coat the rubber on the windows so it has a matte finish...

love it. Thinking of doing the same to my ST wheels. Thinking of doing a brown color

Not a fan of black wheels but looks like you got a good finish.

And that is why I wouldn't pay 500 dollars for the gray painted wheels option. If I bought an ST i'd buy it in Ingot Sliver and I'd dip the wheels orange, and if I got board I'd just plastidip them something else.

That's one of the few cars (and colours) black rims look good on. Very good work.

I just ordered kits to do my wheels and trim. My car is currently getting wrapped so this is what I'll need to finish it off.

You won't be satisfied in a few months once they start peeling.
It might be different since i'm in vegas where it gets hot but I saw a plastidipped WRX and Sentra after a few months and they looked fairly rancid.

Looks good, did you take them off and spray or do it on the car? Debating bronze plastidip on my silver ST
