I’ll be peeling the plasti-dip off my wheels.

Kinja'd!!!

While it looks decent in that picture, it’s peeling rather badly on some of the wheels. Whether it stays silver or I redo the black depends on a couple things. If they’re in okay condition under the black (given the condition of the rest of the wheel, I’m doubting it), and if I like the bare silver on the silver car.

Another thing I may do is get into the headlights and plastidip one black to see if it looks better than the chrome/silver they are inside now. If it does I’ll get some spray paint and do them properly.

By plastidipping the headlight black, which part of it do you mean?

I forgot, did you ever take the Plasti Dip off the roof?

That seems to be the general consensus. I like it way better.

No brah, VANOS kicked in Bruh.

I'm really hoping the lights not being chrome help even more. The wheels I'm a bit fond of though.

Can’t wait to see how it turns out. School is out for me in 2 weeks and then my summer boredom projects begin.

Do you have an example of how plastidipped lights would look? I’m dubious.

Nope, but they stopped so I’m fine with it. I’ll replace it eventually, when it comes time to paint the car Technoviolet!

That’s why I’m doing one plastidip first, to see how it will look. I think it’s going to look better since you won’t be able to really see that ugly rubber seal by the turn signal.

There's one on each wheel. I think that was their way of faking a wheel lock.
