On the wheels I have there is what looks like a piece of chromed tin glued? onto the rim, the "make it look good" piece. I want to strip this off, but haven't had time to look. I thought you had done that, and was asking. I can see it isn't there because of the shot that shows the stud holes... You can see there isn't that piece on it. I'll try to take a picture...

 

Plasti Dip freakin ROCKS!!!


4-5 coats and it's done!

About to do the front bumper & grill.

 

^^ Well done. Thanks for showing, I will perform same thing and report back in.
For paint, is that satin?

 

Nope!! It's Plasti Dip!!
Completely removable if you don't like it.
Watch some vids on it on youtube. It's amazing.

 

Here's the pics in order..











Adding coats






















I decided to do the step rails instead of taking th off.

 

Looks GREAT!!

How about some smoked headlights now?

How well does the plasti dip hold up? I have never used it.

 

Thank you Sir!

Yeah the blacked out aftermarket head light will complete the look.

Seems like it should hold up pretty well.
Lots of vids on youtube.
If it get hit or nicked I suppose it'll need touching up or redone, but Far cheaper option than anything else out there.

 

Looks good david.... im also wondering how well it will hold.. we shall see. lol

Im worried about doing my billet grill.. bc its so thin and if i ever want to go back to chrome, its going to be a PITA from He!!.. hahaha

oh well.

 

Few vids to post...

Here's Rick in Garmons's 6.7.
Still trying to figure things out on it.
It's probably going to need to be back half'd to get any traction.

He spun the whole 1/8 mile.. You can here it.. lol
And the slicks are brand new..

Best was a 7.4x @ 96.xx Spinning!!

Few pics also... From the track tonight.

I really liking the Black & Khaki look I choose..

 

Truck looks great!!

How well does the plasti dip hold up to a pressure washer?

 

I pressure washed it last night on the way to the house.
I just didn't spray right up on it. 8-10 inches away at most.
Worked just fine!!
Lots of vids on YT of people spraying it also..
It's really cool stuff.

 

Be careful with bugs. Some of the bigger ones will eat away at the plastidip if left on there too long.
