Plasti Dip

I plasti diped my front grill, rear deck and rear emblem. Had a little overspray, but came right out with some goo gone. Turned out nice. We will see how it holds up.



EDIT: Link isn't broken, just click on the little square. Not sure why picture doesn't show up in the body here.

Thanks! If you're considering it, I highly recommend it. Worst case scenario you're out a $6 can of plasti dip, painting tape and an afternoon of time. The end result turned out nice and the stuff was actually surprisingly easy to work with. Next up, coils and wheels.

I love the flat black, especially on your car looks real good.

Personally, I think you should un-dip the Infiniti logo on the grille.

Not a bad look, I've done PDip, couldn't get over how hard it is to clean, micro towels stick to it like velcro and hard to get water spots off. I like how easy it is to spray (and remove) though, a nice way to see if you like that color combo, then paint or vinyl wrap if you like the result.

+1 for most easiest, fun and quick mod to do. But -100 for removal because you realize how ugly it gets when you can't clean it. But it's the experience in modding your car that counts! Right?.......

Nothin' personal, but "dip" is 4 dips! (j/k)

I myself can't stand the look...to each their own.
Whatever you do...don't do the wheels!

Now on a side note, I'm doing it baby blue, cry me a river if you don't like it. Here's the expected color:
