I personally think that particular rim looked better in chrome, but clean ride regardless [pic]

Plasti-Dip is a liquid rubberized coating. It was originally manufactured to spray or dip onto the handles of your tools for improved grip. It sticks wonderfully but can be peeled off at anytime.

I've had my wheels dipped for almost a year now and Ive had no issues.

I've also dipped my grill and spoiler. I've gone through rain, snow , and all four seasons and no chips. I used 2 cans, took me maybe about 3 hrs total. It dries EXTREMELY quick.

I've taken it to the DIY car wash and hit it with the power washer with no issues. The one issue I had came when I curbed my rim one time and you could see the rim below the dip, but all you do is respray that one affected area and it blends in perfectly.

Okay for the last time I'm not dropping over 2k on RIMS. Rims are the least important thing to me which is why I Plasti dipped the stock rims. On top of that I can't find any rims I like besides the ZL1 and those are 2k per rim. Then another 2k on tires. So let's see spend 2–4k on rims and tired or spend 2–4k on performance parts, hm yea ill spend it on performance parts.

As for your "serious about cars" line, A LOT of serious car people plasti dip. If my thread title was "put black rims on my car" and never mentioned plasti dip you wouldn't know it. Nor would you know the rims are dipped in person unless I told you.

Pretty dope. I love plasti dip. I used it for my front lip, its the best. Since the stuff just peels off, any rock that bounces up and hits it, i just touch it up in that one spot and it looks brand new again. As opposed to if it was paint, i would have to re paint the whole thing.

Exactly. I had my front lip sprayed for like 150. Now that it has some rock chips here and there. I wish this they just made a gloss black. Would be much better then getting a matte black then the glossifier.

Rims turned out pretty good, nothin wrong with plastidip. Car needs to be lower tho stock height looks terrible.

Agreed. I'd love to lower it but I can't with my front lip being barely an inch high from the ground.

Yea I was thinking of either getting caps or black lugs. If I go lugs then I'll need to buy 2 sets - Black and Silver

Funny thing is I doubt anyone that said to take off the spoiler would complain about it if it was the 67-69 Camaro
