Yah I'm just teasing guys. Its another one of those homedepot mods.

Plastidip on tools is good stuff though, if it adheres correctly.

It just looks cheap to me. Like a rattle can job. I think OEM was much better.

This.

If all cars had matte finish then the current shiny OEM paint would be all the rage with the exact same people who are going for a matte look now.

If you take a step back and try to compare shiny vs. matte in a vacuum, it becomes clear that there's a reason why shiny has been the status quo for so long. It just looks better. Matte simply looks different, not better, which is why it is a fad.

It may not be phasing out yet, but like all fads, it will. It isn't bashing to say this, either. Some people like to hop in and enjoy a fad while others don't. No need for people to get upset about it. It would be disingenuous for people with dissenting opinions to not say anything when someone asks for opinions. If no one posted that they don't like it then people who are on the fence might think everyone likes it, yet they'd be wrong and quite a few of their friends would think their car looks cheap after the fact and then they'd have buyer's remorse.

I don't have any desire to dip my Z, because I love shiny paint, but I also really like plastidip. One of my friends dips cars, including his own several times and other special projects for friends.

The release of the new high gloss Top Coat in March of this year changed everything again. Dip now feels smooth to the touch when you use Top Coat. You can't wrap wheels in vinyl either. My wheels are dipped a custom shade of dark gray. I didnt want them permanently powdercoated. If I want to change the color in the future I can.

This is DipYourCar's new 458 dipped w a satin finish.

Yeah. If they can find a way to remove the rubbery texture, but still retain the flexibility and removable nature, it would be amazing. To be fair, though, that horse would look good in almost any color.

^ the new top coat is surprisingly smooth

there are videos of bottles etc, sliding off the finish

two94- read post #46. dont get your panties all tangled up

MrTwo94

Um, I was agreeing with you. I hate it when people I agree with have crappy reading comprehension. Makes me feel like I'm on the wrong side of the issue

kenchan

oh, my bad... my bad.

malteir

why dont people just get there own vinyl wrap and wrap it them selves? vinyl material isnt that expensive.. it looks pretty easy from youtube videos haha

exsanity

Vinyl is about x1000 more difficult and takes x100 more time to do.

Not sure if the OP has done any updates but gunmetal plastidip on the rims would go very nice with the orange and black.
