My Ride: BMW E60
Model Year: 2016
Came out really nice!
I've been waiting on my order with dipyourcar.com for over a month now
Otherwise mine would be 'dipped for Bimmerfest tomorrow. Le sigh.
Question, how did he do the top? Was he standing on a ladder or something?

My Ride: 2008 BMW 535xi Purchased 2/2011Sapphire Black MetallicNatural Brown LeatherPremium, Sport & Cold Weather
I'll start off by saying that this looks fantastic! Almost seems worth the effort just for sh*ts & giggles! I'm planning on doing this to my grills soon instead of buying black ones.
I am a bit nit-picky and just had to point out that it looks like the side of the car could use another coat as it looks sort of thin in this photo, but otherwise a nice job:

looks splotchy in places. Definitely needs some more coats. Looks like this will work out really good though in the end. I like the red

would definitely need to see this in person. on the computer, the paint reminds me of my brother-in-law's old oxidized red Fiero 10 years ago.

My Ride: 545 modded the F out
overall job looks pretty good with maybe a few areas that need attention. However, the hue of that red would bug the hell outta me. Looks more like a brownish clay color. I guess the beauty of it all is that you can just tear it all off and do it all over again in a day. 
This right here is legit matte red. Definitely no comparison
