This Plasti Dip product is Awesome!

Zell... The plasti dip molds around the cuts and crevices. You just need to try it and you will understand. You can even peel the unlock/lock buttons off.

Im intrested in seeing how long this holds up on the drivers side door handle as I would like to do it as well. if it doesnt last long then i might just take the time to have the handles painted with automotive paint.

Mine lasts 6 months or so. Then I just peel it off and redo it again

Default plasti-dipped my rims

Got the wheels mounted as it was getting dark and it has been raining today so no pics for now.

I was just saying, the murdered out rims on a black cherry car look sweet. Most of the the instructions say it takes 3-4 cans to do a set of wheels. I don't know if I went too thin or if the sport rims don't have that much surface area, but it only took me 1.5 cans for the wholes set.

I thought fellow PlatiDippers needed a thread dedicated to our creativity. Post pics of any projects you have tried, fails too, so the rest of us can learn from your mad genius.

I just got the Pearlizer so I thought I'd try to "hide" my nose badge on my Pearl Z.

2 coats White, 3 coats Pearl, 1 coat Gloss:

Blue Blaze on the side turn signal. I did a horrible job with this as you can see, I will revisit in the Spring when it warms up.

What I need is a heated garage. The day I decided to do this is was supposed to be 55 and sunny. Halfway through rain came so I wasn't able to really take my time.

I HATE WINTER, now that I am a Z owner.

I was gonna do the white on the emblems. Now I'm not sure if I'm feeling it. Might just try to see in person. I did try to do my nismo wheel logos with no luck. I couldn't even cut the plasti dip with an exacto knife.

Did the grille area and spoiler edge to hide some rock chips. I'm very happy with the result.
