Yea i took the wheels off the car. If you do like 4 decent coats u can peel it right off the tire. Pretty easy. Got the springs coming this week so ill have more photos after.

The dipped factory 15"s look sick! I was going to invest in a new set of rims, but you just saved me a ton of money by showing how amazing the stock rims can look with some well done plasti dip. Thanks man!

PS - the rest of the car is pretty sweet too.

Your blacked out headlights look very good. I like how glossy they are. What product did you use?

I used the vht nightshade just like the tail lights. Then the clear I used duplicolor in the spray can..It does wonders. Best clear in a can ive ever used. Trick is the last coat of vht put it on a little heavier so it dries a bit glossy, then hit it with the clear. Maybe 3 good coats. The heavier you can get it without it running the better it will look. Ive gotten pretty good at getting a heavy coat without running.

Eric has deleted the post already and quite possibly warned and maybe even banned the IP address of the user....

All three of his posts were selling DVD's.
