Dipped my wheels anthracite grey with glossifier

Zboy89 · 08-16-2015, 03:09 PM

This weekend after a lot of research and planning, I dipped my wheels and took more than usual to complete the whole process. I think it was worth it. What do yall think?

i don't like plasti dip but it looks pretty good.

I like 'em. The base wheels have grown on me (slowly), but they would look better if they were a little darker. Black is too dark, IMO, but the gloss grey looks good.

If you get the chance, please post a direct side shot of your Z.

looks good im thinking of doing my whole car in that color to protect it from rock chips

Thanks for the feedback guys. I have seen many plastidip cars and wheels and I always thought it looked cheap. With this, I figured I can peel it off if I don't like it so why not give it a try. I did a lot n of prep work and very diligently sprayed to get the cleanest and smoothest looking surface.

I just couldn't afford getting new wheels and tires..it's a bad investment for me lol.
