plastidip adventure lots-o-pics
i really was getting bored with the look of my car. ive been wanting new rims for a while i think im set on chrome but funds arent there for a new set. so ive gone to plasti dip. its cheap reversible and semi durable. me and my friend did my rims in black and it changed the whole look of the car. honestly i kinda like it, but im to scared to paint the 10 spokes permanently. the thing that turns me off about the black is, i feel it no longer "classy" my car is now a young immature kids car. maybe im nuts but i feel like i would get stereotyped and possibly more crap from cops. sorry for the sappy story, heres some pics

I get what you mean about the "kids" car. However, with that said, I think it came out really well and I'm loving this shot:

I like it, but I am partial to SOM + black wheels.

i love that shot as well mike and i was looking for a current COTM thread but there was no such thing, haha
|
I like the change. Looks good.
|
looks good... they make a clear coat plastidip now also.
i did my blazers rims but before they came out with the clear |
black rims :drool:
|
The black doesn't do much for me but god damn ss's in that color give me the narliest chub..... SOM 8==========)
|
I really like it.
|
How long can you expect the rims to hold up with that paint?
Im never a fan of a fully blacked out rims, just no break from rim to tire but its not all that bad on your ride. |

Although SOM looks good with anything. |
itll last a long time, my trucks had it on all winter, thru numerous off road trips, a few spots have been ripped off by rocks but it doesnt spread
|
Looks good.
JW :D |
looks great, it almost looks like a matte black, if it had been gloss i think it wouldn't have came out as good as it did.

Looks good to me. I keep thinking about new rims but never pull the trigger.
|
the car looks great good job
|
would rather see a silver lip on it...its breaks up the rim to tire blackness. id say go back to stock or do the silver lip.. never been a huge fan of the all blackout out rim look. regardless, u did a nice job on it.
|
Does it damage the finish after time once peeled off?

that came out awesome man. alot of the audi guys do it under the hood, to make the black stuff look blacker/cleaner. and completely reversable. cant wait to try it on something on my car
