This Plasti Dip product is Awesome!

How do you think this is going to look on 40th? Possibly the fang and rear valence? I've seen plastidip on Yellow, Red, Blue, White and they look amazing! I just don't think it will give enough contrast to my liking.

I hear you, I'm considering the rear valance also, but I think on the 40th, best way to get contrast is with Carbon Fiber

Subtle but still noticible

I got the CF Fangs and Upper Trim up front...Rear CF costs lots more and EVO-R is out I think...

Yeah I'd love to have CF all over, but gets pretty expensive. I don't want to keep touching my supercharge funding lol

gloss black looks great on a 40th

fxroar · 08-24-2011, 03:03 PM

So if I do this.. I would have to include "PlstiDip" in my signature. I'm not sure if I am ready for that.

Gloss black roof on the 40th's is a nice touch from what I've seen

I tried the plasti-dip on my stock 18"s last night. Stuff is so easy to take off but doesnt really scuff that easily with rocks, chips, etc...

Let me know what you think of the rims. I will eventually get nice 19"s or 20"s but this is it for now.. $$$$

Looks good like always!!

So what exactly does the clear do when sprayed over areas that have been sprayed with black plasti dip? Does it give it a glossy appearance?

I'd imagine not, especially considering how cheap this stuff is. But if it does then this stuff would be the ultimate clear coat....

I did a image search for clear plastidip and found a couple pictures.

Looks like it comes out rather cloudy and textured.

Or did you mean a proper clear coat?

Hey if any one wants to check out my pictures I did my nismo wheels a different style with the plasti dip and did all of my emblems and door handles check it out let me know what u think... Love this stuff..

happytheman · 08-25-2011, 06:43 AM

Cool, thanks for doing the search! I think I'll bypass using the clear. I really would like a glossy look to any bits that I spray, and with the matte look of the Plasti Dip...I think I'll just paint 'em proper.

OR you could spray the clear plasti-dip, then spray whatever color you want, then spray clear coat over that. Then peel off when you're done.... Man this stuff rocks....
