Waiting on the sides to pull it all together. Take your time and the project will go smooooth! Painted the scooter, droped it, removed windsheild and fliped the handlebars while we did the Z....gangster!

Did my fangs and rear valance this weekend using Plasti-Dip. I can peel it off whenever, if ever I get tired of it

Nice DIY again, here is my result...

if you guys know anyone with this kinda setup who also has blacked out emblems please reply lol... I'm debating, I would like to see it before I do it... Google didn't show up any good results.

Thinking of doing this next month, after the damage from the rock chips is it easy to take off and re do it?

looks great man!!!! ^^^^

lilmZkris · 07-20-2012, 08:28 PM

Thanks. It didn't turn out as well as I had hoped, but seeing as how I have never picked up a can of spray paint before, it wasn't as bad as I expected. I'll definitely touch it up at some point, but for now it's okay.

This is will be my first mod when I get my 370, has anyone tried plasti-dip? It is not actually paint and can be peeled off if you screw up. I did the door handles on my 350 with the dip and it has held up darn good, I am thinking it might hold up to the stones/debris since it is rubberized and it is naturally flat in color..Just food for thought! i will be doing the 370 handles as well with the dip.

door handles are sprayed with the dip.

if I had a 370, I'd definately do this to my car, in Vinyl ofcourse
