POST PICS OF YOUR CUSTOM PLASTI DIPPING!!!

[Midnight_LMR]

I actually like my car the way it is, all painted the same color on the bumper. I just can't ever do quad tips like you premium guys without a lot of hassle.

One could always paint a sample piece of plastic and compare it to the rest of the car.

Yea I appreciate everyone has their own style, my end goal is to basically black out the whole bottom as I purchased LEDs from DD and light covers from Big Worm but I like the flow of the stock bumper just would like to black out the bottom the way these guys did and then add the diffuser fins that [MENTION=16017]DansEBM[/MENTION] is working on to finish it off. Think it will give it a bit of race with style and purpose and without the fast and furious lol

My plastidip projects


I did the top of the coolant tank and brake reservoir.

Did you remove the reservoir to dip it?

I just used generic black Plasti-Dip.. nothing special. Seems to match the skirts pretty well.. if there's a shading difference, I haven't noticed it at all.

@PewterCam, @Dendrobatez, @barefootboatnik, @Ajones92, @Terminated would you guys mind sharing a link to what paint code/product you guys used to do your lower rear bumper please :cheers: and how well does it match the skirts and diffuser?

saw this on AM http://www.americanmuscle.com/elastiwrap-16oz-burn-out-black.html
anyone think this could be a good close match to the texture etc of the splitter and skirts?

Yes that looks like a good match.

3m vinyl seems to match the black plastic pretty well, texture is different though. I plasti dipped my mirror covers and the shading difference is noticeable between the dip and plastic unless you use tire shine on the plastic

So I plasti-dipped mine over the weekend and it came out looking great, really great with the original plasti-dip black. Only thing was when I removed the tape I didn't think to cut the line with a razor :headbonk: because it pulled and frayed the edge of the paint so I got pissed and took it all off lol lesson learned. I'm going to wait now till @DansEBM finishes his diffuser fin add-ons and then do it over again lol :frusty::frusty::frusty::frusty::frusty::frusty:

I didn't remove it all the way but rigged up something to hold the tank while I painted it. Redneck. I did take the hoses loose. Only the top half is painted but it looks perfectly natural that way. I did mask off the level indicator using a mold line, so I can check it.

Matte/Glossifier

Matte/Glossifier

Not a bad idea considering how hard it is to keep that panel looking good with the gloss black. One drive and you can see the dust, and fingerprints are inevitable.

Yeah that was my problem exactly, it always looked like shit. I had trouble getting the glossifier to lay down good but after few attempts I finally got it. I have my roof wrapped in gloss black or I would have just left it matte. I'm really happy with it.
