    Plasti dip side skirts and front lip

    Thanks guys. I did ten coats of white first for full coverage. Then when it dried, I did 4 coats of gloss. Don't mix them. If this didn't come out well or if it didn't match well, I was thinking of doing gloss black instead since I have the whole white and black thing going on. Very happy with...

    Plasti dip side skirts and front lip

    Did my side skirts today. Was very happy with how it came out until I peeled the tape off, and it took some of the Plastidip with it. I managed to salvage it so it doesn't look bad. Cost me another $12 and a few hours of my time. And yes, I caked it on. Did 10 coats of white and 4 coats of...

    Plasti dip side skirts and front lip

    I'm going to try turtle wax ice spray on the plastidip. I've heard good things about it on plastidip, that it protects it and makes it shine and feel like paint. I'm doing my side skirts this Thursday, I'll take pics and post when it's complete.

    Plasti dip side skirts and front lip

    Try it, what's the worst that happens. Best thing about plastidip is, if you don't like it, peel it off. I'm not a fan of the unpainted plastic on the bottom, looks cheap to me. I went and bought plastidip and glossifier for about $6 each at Home Depot and tried it on the back. Of course it...

    What to do with unpainted trim?

    I am thinking about matching all of the plastic trim under the doors and the bumpers to the rest of my solid white MS. I'm wondering if anyone has experience with this, and suggestions. How much work goes into something like that? Cost? Should it be painted or wrapped? If anyone has pictures...

    Powder Coating Wheels

    Had my 19" wheels powder coated gloss black. Love the way it came out. I'll probably get black covers for the lug nuts. Sorry for the crappy quality pictures. Camera on my phone sucks.

    Bottom plastic trim on classic MS

    I am thinking about matching all of the plastic trim under the doors and the bumpers to the rest of my solid white MS. I'm wondering if anyone has experience with this, and suggestions. How much work goes into something like that? Cost? Should it be painted or wrapped? If anyone has pictures...
