Plasti Dipped 2008 MT Fit

I am thinking about plasti dipping my wheels and some emblems and was wondering if anyone has done an entire Fit with this stuff yet? If so, could you post up a pic and or tell me how it all came out. Thanks in advanced. - Sean

Dipped my wheels, front emblem, and back emblem. I have friends who did window trim, mirrors, door handles, steering wheel emblems, and interior pieces. This stuff is awesome! It has sort of a flat finish, if you wash your car, you're gonna want to gently dry the water off the dip or it'll make water spots. Other than that it stays noticeably clean, changes the look of your car drastically and instantly, and it's totally removable and easy.

I was also thinking about doing my front lip since it has some wear and tear to it. Hopefully it will make it look nice and not like a cheap piece.

The color MIGHT clash only because of the blue sparkles in the NHBP paint. I would advise you check out dipyourcar.com because they have a lot of colors and stuff you might be interested in. Good thing is, even if it doesn't look good, you can just peel it right off

I actually plasti-dipped my front lip. It had tons of scratches and what not. I went over my lip with about 4 coats. You want to make the last two extra thick, so when it comes time to peel it off, it won't break lil by lil. It'll just come off as one. Doesn't look so bad either.

I ended up doing the front a rear lip. They came out pretty good. Nice and smooth matte black. Now that I have done the rims and the two lips, next will be the spoiler and hood, then side skirts and the rest of the car. I will be scratch proof!
