pdip looks great. Almost everyone that doesnt know about it assumes your wheels are powdercoated. Do your handles and emblems now.

Its fine. Just remember after a while and exposed to sun it will be harder to take off. A bottle of dip thinner will help to get it off instead of taking it off little piece by little piece specially in the lug nut holes.

Hell do the whole car to act as a vinyl wrap to protect paint and rock chips.

And this will be a day job for me next weekend. No more silver on my car, just all black until I decide to buy the sport calipers

I believe a member here (Nick Turnon) if I am not mistaken has them done. I believe he has a DIY for it too.

Looks great OP! :tup:

Taking off the muffler is one of the easiest things to do to the car. There are many DIYs. Hardest part is cracking rusty bolts. Get some PB Blaster and a breaker bar and you're ready to go!
