Thank you. I think I could've did better. Planning to do my diffuser next week and the emblem.

How soon do you guys think you can add plasti dip to a surface after it's been painted?

I would wait 30 days for the paint to cure, same as waxing.

I would put on at least 3 or 4. What I did was keep putting on coats until it's as glossy as you like. Put on a coat and give it 10-15 mins to dry. If you like it, then just leave it there. If you want it more glossy, add another coat and repeat.

Did you do the wheels yourself? Also, what is that handle coming out your front bumper?

You car looks great btw. Good job and good vids. Im not good at making diy walkthroughs..i just posted an album of the process.

Did you also get overspray. I saw that you did what i did and only taped around the emblems... i had to bug and tar the car afterwards. I was scared when i first saw the overspray everywhere....lol

Default Plasti dipped side blinkers
I plasti dipped my side blinkers today on my silver z. I have black wheels, emblems, fangs, rear diffuser, roof, and tailights so I thought this would blend into the theme well and it turned out great. I peeled the plasti dip off the light section so you can see the light. "z" and outer ring are black.ImageUploadedByTapatalk1345312465.442828.jpgImageUploadedByTapatalk1345312482.024815.jpgImageUploadedByTapatalk1345312497.759735.jpg

Somehow caught the light perfect to show how good it looks
