Plasti dipped the wheels tonight...

So I've been wanting to see the black look on my car since I have black emblems, fangs, rear diffuser, and tail lights. ImageUploadedByTapatalk1331007817.730438.jpg

Yeah im still deciding on whether to do the handle bars on mine. I don't know how well they will hold up. If you don't mind me asking, how long ago did you plasti dip your emblems, and how well have they held up?

Man my emblems have been plast dipped since November 28 and holding up great! No peeling at all! It's amazing. It took me a while to get the mindset to do it because I love the car stock but looks more stealth now. Get compliments all the time.

nmjaxx9, I did my emblems too and that stuff is tough! And the nice thing about it is that if it does get messed up you can just peel it off and do it again, super simple. I just did like 5 or 6 good coats and it was good to go. You can check out more pics of it in my albums I think...

Huck, just saw your pics they look good! I think now I will go ahead and do mine this weekend, (still contemplating the handle bars) it seems very simple and a mod done by many others.

I've worked with this stuff a little bit now and I think I would advise you to not do the door handles, I don't think they would last very long. But I could be totally wrong, and the worst thing that could happen is you peel it off and go back to stock.
