I looks killer, but in for more pics and see how it holds up. I kinda wanted to plasti dip my M510 wheels to see how they look black but Im worried the finish wont last.

Looks killer, You need to post up more pics to showcase your work, how many gallons does it take to do an entire car and how long? was this done at home or a shop inside a paint booth?

Great job. I really think more of these type products are going to pop-up in the future, and color options will expand. It's a much easier and more cost effective means to cover large surfaces non-permanently rather than wrapping. However, I am doubtful that it would be as durable. The good news is that touch ups should be relatively easy!

To be honest, wraps aren't really durable either. Depending on coats, I am more inclined to say that Plasti Dip is actually more durable than wrap.
Two weeks ago I was in a shop and saw a GTR that was wrapped that just came back from a track day. The front was tore up basically.
