Woo been getting my wife's OS ready for mod just plasti dipped front and fog lights and shaved trunk except Mitsubishi symbol and painted red and I painted the little symbol on the gas tank to match was a lot of work :mitsu:

Here's the gas tank badge

did you take the silver trim off the grille or did you paint/plasti dip it?

That's plasti dip my friend I did the hood too recently just experimenting plan to get a gun from dipyourcar but I did screw up the spoiler so I redid it I think plasti dip might peel off a little to easy including your clear coat. After removal the paint feels really dry?

When you dip.. make sure you do it in the shade (away from the sun's UV)
Mitsu's paint process seems much "thinner" than other manufacturers.

Dipping the chrome grill bezel, lower lip and side skirts is what I'm planning on next.

Do you have a pic of the hood dipped in curious to see it also I'm curious how many coats of dip you were putting on your peices ?

info on the roof rack? i have an es too without rails so i wanna go this route!

ok cool i was thining about plasti-dip the front grill. Did you take it off or just tape it off? I also plasti-dip my emblems and wheels, they turned out pretty good.

I've been working on an aluminum roof basket to sit ontop of my factory roof rack

Thanks guys! Yeah I hated the way all of the baskets were awkwardly tall when on top of a rack and I recently purchased a new tig welder so I just decided to make one! I'm stoked with how well it turned out.

Respect!

Loved how you shaped each and every one of those rails, definitely Didn't take the "easy" route when you came up with Your Design.

How are you you lowered? car looks great!
