I mean, after a commute, they should be ok. But if you take the back roads, they will be getting toasty. |

I have my rear valance plasti dipped, no problems from exhaust heat. Rims should hold up. While researching the uses of plasti dip on automobiles I came across many people doin rims w it. As far as durability I hear its actually more chip resistant than spray paint due to its rubbery nature.

Ken, yes after a few days of curing it gets hard. At first I was worried about the stickiness too. Thats what made the masking removal so hard, it was still like elastic. Im sad about your bad experience. I really feel like its a decent product. Especially if you arent totally committed to doin something, like blacking out your fangs and valance like I was. It gave me the comfort of knowing removal was possible if I didnt like it

Ken, you may have a slight misconception with respect to the wifi OBDII scanners. They are real time, but can be laggy...like sometimes one to two secs behind. With that being said, it's cool for gathering data and getting trending info. also, not all apps are created equally. Some are more memory intensive than others and may be a bit less laggy. I've only gotten to play with a couple of them.

Finally dropped my car off at my friend's house tonight. Hopefully, the exhaust will be fixed and the intake piping with the new intercooler will be done in time for Cars and Coffee Saturday morning...my dad is actually wiling to go to a car event with me for the first time ever!
