Does it look good enough that, you would Plasti-Dip your whole car????

Would I do it, probably not at all. Just google it up. Plenty of nice looking cars out there that have been plasti dipped.

I'ma cop an 13' SRT (Might wait for the supercharged to Drop)
I was going to put vinyl wraps on it. The quote I got was 3k. But if you get hit or something happens, you're !!ed.

I think this is a better option. Plus you can Switch colors when ever you want.

What I wanted to know, is there any bubbling ????

The plastidip is VERY forgiving. Not like spray paint at all. As long as the first few coats are light coats, you can pretty much go real heavy after that. Just take your time and you'll be fine.

If you spray it right there won't be any bubbling. That'll only happen if you spray too much on one spot.

Yes the ZL1 pump will be just fine. It's rated for 650hp. Plus I have a MSD Bap.

As for suspension I have Pfadt front &, rear sway bars, Pfadt front &, rear end links, Pfadt toe links, Pfadt rear trail arms

Matte orange with matte black rims... Damn i really need to consider it.

Summer almost over though, salt/snow + plastidip = ugly.

yeah it came out looking good......

u can leave the wheels on the car for those who asked, just get painters tape and take the calipers and rotors.......

the best part about plasti dip is if you dont like it, you can rip it off and start again.....

nice job on the wheels
