Plasti Dip Flakey Gold
 
hey guys! Well i wanted to test something new and do gold rims! Everyone has black rims now a days, i was thinking about doing white rims but i had changed my mind becauase i prevouisly got iron man lights so might as well make my car look like the iron man! I bought 3 gold plasti dip cans and 5 black plasti dips. the gold does NOT stick to any other color except black. I had to do 3 coats of black and 2 of gold. The more gold you spray the golder the rims look! I only did it to see what people think about it till i get my new rims.. Just a new look! Check them out tell me what you think. :tup:

It's interesting. I guess since the car is at stock height and those are 18's (?)... I don't like it too much. However, I know red and gold look great! So with that said, maybe if you bought aftermarket wheels, dropped the ride, and threw on another coat or two of gold (make it brighter) I think it would look fresh!!

Way to be bold man!!

Oh and I'm not a fan of the emblems being painted. Sorry, just my opinion =D

Looks awesome man! :tup:

I thought about doing gold for my car, but I decided on using the silver metalizer to get more of a dark gunmetal color.

no me gusta. The emblems look like it was sprayed too thick.

twinturbonet 06-05-2012 02:33 PM

Why don't I like this set up? I'm trying man, I'm tryingggg!!! lol.

I love Red/Gold.

I think it looks awesome! Red and gold are a good combo.

That looks really good! I dont care what anyone says, the stock 18's look pretty decent for stock wheels. I actually prefer then over the sport 19's that remind me of a snake tongue.

Let us know how the gold hold up.

Now you just need to decide what to do with the handles and the side markers. The silver is clashing by the gold everywhere else.


The PD job came out looking good! How hard is it to clean the PD off the tires, or does it just come off through driving?

Dipyourcar.com has every color plasti dip! its some young guy making them.. first you have to spray about 2 or 3 coats of the black plastidip.. after you waited a couple minutes (7-10) start applying the flakey gold.. the more you spray the golder it gets.. its awesome! So many compliments on it..

Not hard at all.. its comes off mostly itself.. when your driving you already see it like hanging a little.. once you see it hanging just pull it right off and it looks brand new! :happydance:
