The other thread's getting big so I'm starting a new one here.

Yesterday I posted the thread https://www.evolutionm.net/forums/09...ndow-trim.html and today I'm posting the plasti-dipping results. Overall, I'm pretty happy with the way it turned out.

Masked off everything except the chrome

hey did u plasti dip the front chrome part too? i didnt see any pics of u doing it so i was wondering.

 

Yes, I did the front lip first (w/pics): https://www.evolutionm.net/forums/09...front-lip.html

 

Ooo ok my fault i remember seeing that thread and those pics now just didnt remember it was u that posted it, dang looks like a lot of work to take out bumper but damn it looks nice after everything is done

 

wow first 2 things I will do when I get my RA this and lip.

 

I wish he would edit his orig posting from lip to front ring =)

 

I wish I could....after I submitted it I noticed I wrote lip instead of ring

I did actually change the title, but it still says Lip in some places.

 

awesome man, you are definately good at how to post eye candy with good descripts, overall how many hours did both project take? also total cost? Thanks man LOOKS GREAT !!!

 

total cost is like 8$ for the can of plasti-dip. it can take many hours depending how you do it.. i did the front ring with out taking it off in about 6 hours, 2 for papering everything off and the other 4 for painting and waiting 25-40 mins between each coat. I didnt have to do the window trim canadian RA's don't have it.

 

Looks good! I just did mine yesterday. Didn't take Long at all. Had a few blemishes but nothing to noticable. I also did the trunk release which was also easy. Posted a how to on trunk release. I still gotta do the front trim. Didn't have the time yesterday. This plasti dip stuff is really good. Easy to work with.

 

nice nice, does the plasti-dip stuff come off easy or what would you compare it to cause its obviously will wear off right? its not like powder coating

 

the plasti-dip will come off , if you want it to.

you can "peel" it off.

my window trim has been done for several months now ......

......with no signs off "wearing off" or flaking.

 

Glad you guys appreciate this The can of Plasti-Dip was $6-something plus tape for masking, so it costs next to nothing except an afternoon of your time.

I probably only spent 2-3 hours doing both (NOT including drying time....)

 

anyone wanna trade trim? I have black ones and want the chrome ones...

 

I'd probably be down for a trade
