Seems like nobody's done it on the Milano Red's.
Here's mine.

If you look closely, you can tell I didn't do that great of a job. Good thing it's only Plasti-Dip

And BritDevine inspired me to do the front as well.

Looks killer on the Red..I love mine...what did you use...my plasti-dip is starting to come of the front now ever so slightly

I'm going to redo it before winter n the front...for protection!

Ill be doing the front like you as well...getting the inside there makes it look better IMO

Thanks! I used plasti-dip for the front and the back. I don't know if I have enough experience to do it for real. Haha. So your plasti-dip in the front only lasted about four months before it started to come off?

It got one huge rock chip...so in reality it saved the paint underneath it, but it peeled the dip a little bit..about the size of a pencil point or so...its not to bad...bad at least it saved the paint from another rock chip...I have so many of those already

Thats red Plasti dip on my wheels too!
