Default Color Modification Experiment- Center Console

In an inexpensive attempt to experiment with colors and ideas this became the first time I've ever used "Plasti Dip", and the first time I've practiced painting in over a decade. Not too shabby if I say so myself, and I do. Haha.

Default Exterior- Progress

I learned a lot doing this my first time. Turns out, Plastic Bags and low stick painters scotch tape was an amazing idea. The plastic bags stick in place using static electricity until you can secure it with tape to make your sharp lines. And when it's time to clean up, just open one up and throw all your trash in it. Two days of work cleaned up in Two minutes.

I plastidiped my entire car matte black and I love it. In a few months I'll be dipping it again with a hyperpearl. Changes about 9 different colors.

Default Hood Damper (shock/strut)

Had to delete the Battery and Brake Fluid Covers for this. However, it works great.
