Interesting. How long will it last is the question?

plasti dip...

I can speak from personal experience Vinyl wrapping is expensive and vinyl is hard to work with. Plasti-diping is the way to go since you can easily remove it after you get bored. Go crazy, its like 5 bucks a can

Plasti-Dip a Car!

Dipyourcar.com has full kits to dip a car. Comes with couple gallons of dip, tape, and a Wagner sprayer. Watched a 30 min vid he did on his car. Works really well and lasts, he took a 1800psi power washer in anothe vid to dipped parts and helps up fine. Lots of colors too

So plasti dip some wheels hmmm will try my dads beater lol..... How long will it hold with the brake heat and all the road grime and dirt and stuff?

Do enough coats, and Plastidip will hold up to a bombing. I plastidipped my grille and letters. The letters have held up to everything and I only had to repaint the grille once after hitting a prehistoric bug (looked like it was from raiders of the lost ark) that embedded itself into the grille and chipped the paint when I washed him off.

Check the R forum for some examples of Plasti-dipped wheels. They seem to hold up okay. The only thing I've heard is that they're a magnet for brake dust and a bit more delicate to clean.

Go check the vids at dipyourcar.com, really good how to's.

I did my wheels and grill over the Thanksgiving holiday and they still look great. I have new tires installed, been through touch free car wash more times than I prefer and the it has held up just fine.

Not the best picture but all I had on my phone right now.

Go for it!

This makes me want to really do my stock wheels. They should look good in black. Almost like pegs lol

my friend is in the process of doing his bike in that plasti dip...from the pics he posted, he looks like its coming out great!

Black on black with the face-lifted cars looks damm good, not sure how it would look on my sagitta's though. Has anybody plasti-diped stock wheels on a 05-07?

Well we do know that Gloss Black Sagittas work. I was thinking of doing something like this before I switched.

More Pics.
