anyone know if the engine parts can be done

here's wat plasti-dip states on their homepage...

"Multi-purpose air dry, synthetic rubber coating that can be easily applied as a spray, brush, or dip coating. Plasti Dip resists moisture, acids, abrasion, corrosion, skidding/slipping, and provides a comfortable, controlled grip. Plasti Dip protective coating remains flexible, stretchy and will not become brittle or crack in extreme weather conditions; -30°F to 200°F. "

so top temp is too low for engine bay ...
use Duplicolor engine enamel for engine stuff.

Then I'll definitely spray this on my front bumper next time I go drifting so the cones don't scratch or bang up my bumper when/if I hit them!

Finished up my door handles and side markers today.

XwChriswX · 08-12-2011, 01:24 AM

Thinking of doing my side markers and emblems too this weekend. I debadged the '370Z' so just have the burgers.

Side markers will be in black of course...

Burgers I have 2 options:

1. Complete Black Out

2. Black out, fill in 'NISSAN' with Red. Overall theme of car is Black/Red

Your thoughts?

LoL Yeah, I just saw a pic of the black burgers with red letters, looks like azz so there goes that idea.

Here is another idea i was planning on trying (Its already been done on other forums) using plasti dip as a primer and paint over it to any color of your choice. But i am not sure how it will come off.

NXXT · 08-12-2011, 08:19 AM

I just did my mirrors recently, it's freaking amazing, good job on the emblems!

youknow17 · 08-12-2011, 09:02 AM

Just get colored plasti-dip?? No need to paint over it, since it's not a primer, not sure how good the paint would stick...

I was debating on doing this as a joke, I would never paint them red. And it was a pic posted in the Premium Section. I don't remember where to link it though... best to stick with all black. I will be doing mine tonight, so I'll make sure to take plenty of pics.

TypeOne · 08-12-2011, 04:43 PM

I think I will go pick up a can of this tonight and do my emblems.
