Want to plasti dip either my spoiler or my bottom trim on each side of my car. Should I do them both, or one of them? Or even neither, give me your thoughts

Do as Lalayla did, just the bottom trim of the rear bumper. If you do the side skirts, it's gonna look like new unpainted trim. Your car is pretty hot the way it is, I wouldn't change it too much.

I'd do the bottom of the bumper and maybe the spoiler but I don't think I would do the ground effects. Also for the interior I would do them in plasti dip then paint over the plasti dip so if you want to you can remove it

Well bud if you want it the same as your car your gonna have to have some painting skills get your paint code off your door jam have it mixed up spray with a paint gun .. or get close color in a spray can and spray it on ... Any the plastic spray paints are good for that task .. id go to your local autoparts store (autozone.. advanced auto parts.. oreillys) and get you some yellow dupicolor trim paint .. or krylon yellow from Walmart be good just remember its all about prep work .. get scotch brite pad scuff up all area your wanting to paint use gloves your oils in your hands will cause the paint to lift or not stick right after scuffing clean with a non silcone cleaner a good surface cleaner .. spray in light coats till its as dark as you want do not just lay it on thick first shot it will run cause of build up .. have fun with it

Thanks  I wasn't Sure what kinda spray paint to use so I didn't get any. It will be my next project for sure. I night shaded my third brake light, and plasti dipped the top half of my spoiler. Looks legit the top half black and bottom half yellow! I love it. Also put two stripes down the left front side. I like it. I'm happy with today's accomplishments. Was a really nice day worked out great!

I'd say paint you wing flat black and paint your deck lid around where your license plate is flat black also. And paint taillights too with some black clear coat (nightshade)

It's a great product | It was originally designed to coat handles of tools, but it has been found to be capable of sooo much more!! Amazing stuff really.

It's gods gift to us ppl with thoughts in mind of customizing your car but I you don't like it, peel it off! It's adhesive rubber basically. Holds up great and peels of nicely. ---------- Post added at 02:11 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:10 PM ---------- Oh and a tip in case there's small spots when you peel it off that are still on there you can use a eraser and it gets it off great . If you dont wanna use your fingers of course. ---------- Post added at 02:12 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:11 PM ---------- It's perfect. Looks great, custom, and removable
