Time to re-dip my rims

louiey370z · 06-06-2015, 06:24 PM

So, after a few months of having black plasti dipped rims, I want to dip them a new color as the black is coming off considering I got a car wash too soon after dipping them lol.

I have the stock 2011 rims. I was thinking maybe a dark red would be pretty nice

Powder-coat.

That is all.

Saw this coming. I don't plan on getting them powder coated until I get a new set of rims which should be soon

Step 1: DIP into trash
Step 2: Enjoy

I agree.

When I dipped my rims no matter what color I used they all faded within 3-4 months. Keep in mind I try to park in the shade as much as possible.
