Was thinking almost a silver set of fangs in center area of the bumpers on the magnetic black car; plans are to get a light silver set of katskinz as well. I may photoshop it later to see what exactly it would look like.

Has anyone used this to do the inside of their headlights? I'm thinking of going the LED route with mine and I'm not 100% sure if I want to go black on the inside of the housings or not yet.

Pureswank, just curious. I'm planning on doing this to my 370 as well. How'd you get around the lock and unlock buttons on the door? Wouldn't the Plasti Dip get inside that small opening on the button? How'd you prevent it from getting inside the door handle?

Zell... The plasti dip molds around the cuts and crevices. You just need to try it and you will understand. You can even peel the unlock/lock buttons off.

I know it might be nerve wrecking if its your first time around. It was mine as well. Dont be afraid, trust me on this one. Just spray it evenly. One coat at a time. About 10 minutes between each one. First coat wont look nice because it wont cover the complete surface. But after your third and fourth coat you should have them blacked out. I even sprayed the interior side of the handle. Youll be just fine. Spray it good.

Im intrested in seeing how long this holds up on the drivers side door handle as I would like to do it as well. if it doesnt last long then i might just take the time to have the handles painted with automotive paint.

Mine lasts 6 months or so. Then I just peel it off and redo it again

plasti-dipped my rims
Got the wheels mounted as it was getting dark and it has been raining today so no pics for now.
I was just saying, the murdered out rims on a black cherry car look sweet. Most of the the instructions say it takes 3-4 cans to do a set of wheels. I don't know if I went too thin or if the sport rims don't have that much surface area, but it only took me 1.5 cans for the wholes set. |
