Oh whoa, that's no good ^

 

i bought a sweet winter beater that i plan to give a paint job to with either rhino liner or rubberized coating just to see what it would look like

 

sounds good, considering it's your "beater" car wonder how difficult it will be to keep clean.

 

Maybe I should plastidip my handles. The first time I spray painted them they came out great. Then they chipped so I redid them and not so good the second time

 

Love the plastidip on my emblems, handles and wheels! Easiest clean, just use a hose and it cleans right up.

Cheap and easy.

Here are some new-ish pictures.

 

Nice job on the Plastidip. Your car's paint needs some major tlc. I see some deep swirls in the first pic.

 

Just strip the cheap ish off handles and have em properly painter, never looked back?! No problems...damn sticker ish was bubbling, gross! As for whole car, bad idea....beater idea for rhino guy, I posted vid awhile back from maxima forums of guy who lined his maxima, looked pretty sick & will def keep salt & sand off!

Anyone ever try this on their front bumper side reflectors? Can't stand that orange, and they seem difficult to get at.

 

I did you can see it in my post with pictures a couple posts down. They were super easy to do just having to take off the bumper pretty much sucked.

 

damn your z looks just like mine dide pre-paint job. massive swirl marks and scratches on the hatch edge and rear bumper

 

Used a can of plasti-dip. everything came out great. Let me know what you think.

Total Cost of this mod: about $6 for the can











Here is the DIY I used for the make over.

looks good

 

just wondering on the doors handles , since this sees alot of traffic and use , does the plastidip chip off? can we see a pic after a couple weeks? id love to the handles but kinda scared that the kool effect would only be temp.

kool mods btw

 

Ill do my best to post up pictures in a few weeks! Plasti-dip was meant for hand tools so im guessing that these will hold up just fine. If it can take the beating that hand tools take, im sure these will be just fine IMO.

 

Nice job!

 

I like the contrast of the silver, but i will say it looks great on the dark red car.

 

nice work dude
i recently did the same thing on my door handle
did you apply any finisher on it after the paint?
you know even a lil price of paint comes off would be a big deal

 

Looks good, but stop while your ahead! you can get addicted to that plasti-dip.. haha

 

However, The Z by the fender is very hard to see now
