Got my splitter painted and installed this weekend, so I thought it would be a good time to re-dip my wheels. Let me know what you think!

I just did it on my stock wheels this weekend for kicks and giggles.... well I did a brake job so I can get rid of the @#$@#$ brake dust! I'm really liking it so far. I can't decide if I should take off the center cap or not.. I'm going to try to photoshop a picture or two tomorrow in a post when I get time though.. work has been busy.

Looks good but to remove is gonna be a pain in the ass did my rims a year ago still got them plastic dip on them lol, but it makes a big difference when you paint and put shine to it.... I just got tired of doing it over and over again

I have my shark fin dipped black to match my vinyl roof. In addition I sprayed the underside of my spare tire holder to back it out and tie it in with the diffuser.


Probably of more interest: I have some more Plasti Dip cans in the mail. Soon my Forgestars will be Copper (over Gunmetal) and my interior trim will be Aluminum.

Pics soon,
Evan
