I posted this in the gallery section last week, but I just wanted to share with you local guys what the plastidip metalizer looks like. *my contribution to keeping the 813/727 area active*

They're not perfect as I still need to even it out. However, they look pretty damn good for what it is.
They're a matte black base (approx 2 cans) with silver metalizer (approx 1.25 cans) to top it off
This is just something to hold me over until I'm able to get my hands on some legit wheels
So far they still look great (it's been about 2 months now) no chips no nothing

Here's a few crappy cell pics in different light just to give you an idea of how they look

Looks good. The plastidip is a great product

We "Skinnydipperz" always use a can of plati-dip per wheel.
Also FYI you should buy their new brake dust cleaner on their website dipyourcar.com. I just ordered mine tonight you will need it if you plan on keeping the dip on wheels for an extended period of time . hopefully ill be copper metelizing my wheels this week in preparation for getting my S back next week!

Yeah every thread that suggested on how to paint them gave very subjective descri ptions. "Youll need 5/4/3coats" so I just gave them a good enough coat to cover up all the metal.

We just try to use one can per wheel so that way they have plenty of coverage and they will all have the same amount of dip on them.

Peeling is half the fun!
