Orange plastidipped rims and mirrors.

Codename067 · 03-14-2014, 01:49 PM

Ok so before anyone jumps the gun, you should all
know that this was done completely out of the blue.
It was unplanned. I had a few extra cans laying
around from a previous work that I had no more need
for, and seeing how I will be getting some new rims
for this baby later this month, I said to myself
"screw it let me try it out and see how it will come
out" I also went a head and did the mirrors as well.

Well here are the results! Not too shabby in all honesty.
Got a few thumbs up and it does attract more looks.

Just wanted to share

Not a huge fan but the mirrors look.... off from the front.

Eh... It's not bad but I think red might have looked cooler. Good thing all you have to do is peel and its good as new.

Agree...red. The orange looks off with the red rail lights.

For a very long time if they are done right. And I'm talking several months. You need to apply nearly 10 coats or more if you want it to last a very long time, specially the edges have to be done right because thats where the peeling starts.

It's not awful, but I think only Porsche can pull off this look 100%.

I think the front view would look a little nicer if you did the front emblem as well. To go with the mirror caps
