Thanks and yes it is plasti-dip. It was such a pain to get on though. had to keep removing the tape after every coat and it still doesn't look great. I will probably end up redoing it. But thanks for the compliment. Have a great holiday season :clown:
The way I did it was just one go and kept building up the layers and it turned out perfectly for me and then I quickly tore off the pain after I went over everything 5 or 6 times with the last layers being pretty thick! Just don't stop spraying except to readjust your position!
Haha idk man. I feel like that would cause the paint to run but I'm sure you are probably a little more talented at it than I am. :blush 1:
Now now! I wouldn't say that! I believe that it was a pretty hot day out when I did it so if you did all light coats they would be more solid than runny! It was a pain in the ass taping though... Definitely agree...
I used plasti dip (mistake #1) and the rattle can form of it (mistake #2) so it turned out stripy... But I'm planning to replace it with gloss black vinyl in the summer, bugs me so much! I think my summer rims look good with the plasti dip but nothing bigger than rims or like a gas cap looks good with rattle can plasti dip IMO
Oh dude that sucks but from what I have read you cant really go wrong with vinyl. Got two questions for you. Since you are such a fan of plasti-dip have you done your rear valence (I have and must say that it looks awesome with black plasti-dip), second have you done any interior work with vinyl/plasti-dip? I'm looking to update the silver trim of the interior.
I was planning to try them in white because I had seen someone's in black, might have been yours! I haven't ever used vinyl so it'll be an experience doing my car, I myself was also planning to do all the interior with white plasti dip! I need to be able to air my car out if I'm doing that so I'm waiting for the long winter to end....
That's a good point about airing it out. My biggest fear is using plasti-dip on the inside of the car :no: I just don't want to get it on everything
Love, love the look of your ride!! Great pics!!!
I will be gathering a lot of plastic wrap and newspapers for those days hahaha that and I'll be removing the centre parts when I do the cup holder and area around the shifter!
Ok boss well if you get around to it before I do throw up some pics. And I'll do the same man. I'm thinking about doing of red, because of the velocity red paint
At earliest I probably be doing it in May! And I'll be doing mine white like my car! That and I'll have a lot of blue lighting going on in my car hahaha can't contradict the lighting! Actually?? No way! Not a problem! Your lip looks really good! I think it creates a much more aggressive look, I know I love mine!@DAYTEK
I just realized after looking at your albums (sorry creeper :stuartthat you are the person who gave me the idea to plastdip the front lip. Thanks so much man!!!!!
I totally agree man. It looks way better than that silly smile. Really appreciate the imagination :cheesy:
We're pitching each other ideas and have the same ideas too! I like what you're thinking!
Lol, walmart hahahaha it actually wasn't that bad the way I did it! Mine came with a switch to turn it off, change colours and change the brightness so I didn't have to do any special wiring, the little DC plug in infront of the shifter in that little cubby I never use can be unplugged if you open that area and then I took the wires from my thing and put them in the positive and negative spots! That plug in isn't always running so I thought it'd be perfect for it! And now my controller is just right by my knee!
