Plastidip works great if done right... that said it's a pita to do "right".
You have to buy the stuff by the gallon and spray it on with a lphv gun, we used a backpack sprayer used to paint houses.
I tried using spray cans on a panel of my car to get by before I painted it. Got similar results tiny little pieces, I pressure washed the rest of it off. Lol

yep I use a gun and gallons to spray it and it comes out nice.

^^^looks like you did it well. But still looks like faded paint to me. Not a fan of plastidip. I'd drive it in primer,and/or faded paint before that. That's just my .02

It's cheap, and some people like the flat look. It will also protect the paint underneath.

You can get it in metallic and glossifier to make it look just like paint. The technology being used in the field of plastidip is pretty amazing.

^^Thats dip!

I'll be doing my ride in Red Metallic with Glossifier for way less then a paint job until I can save up the resources to do paint.

Thanks..... They are Ronal rims that have a finish much like that of a CD disk.... all colors glimmer off them. Rim nuts are flushed and
locked over with a key cap.

lol.. not yet.. just got the converterand a battery relocation kit this week and have been too busy with life and work. I'd like to get a power pipe as well. Hope to have it on by end of Feb. As much as I hate to admit it, with a bad back and no lift I'm going to have Thunder Auto install the converter and run the cable for the battery install under the car.

Updated pics of how it sits now.. Just put on BBK blue lowering springs.. Pretty happy with the results. Still have to do the caster/camber mod.. but so far so good.
