ugh, PD on a whole car is for Civics and Neons. Use it to accent the car, sure. But not the whole car...

Looks like this was done for the looks. As I am guessing the hood is CF and they didn't want to hide that fact.

But I have been contemplating plasti dipping my whole car. Not particularly because I like the look, but to protect the paint while on the track. The only drawback is when removing the stuff it is no fun getting into all the spots the paint goes.

you realize someone with a GTR most likely had it professionally wrapped and not plastidipped right?

at my cars and coffee this past weekend there was a birhgt matte blue wrapped GTR that looked amazing.

just a thought.

Correct. Hood and trunk were CF.

I'll take a finger nail to it next time I see it to determine whether it's dipped or wrapped. j/k

Matte black is so cliche, I have literally seen 3 Camry's in the last week with it

PD or not, it needs some aftermarket wheels ASAP
