Default Black wheel Plasticoat

Worst idea yet. Everything like small stones take the coating off. I washed the wheels with a cloth and they peeled. Guess I need new wheels..

worst idea in general... putting plasti-dip on this car is not the best way to "improve" it. especially not in an area that experience a great deal of abuse from the road and debris.

Why would you need new wheels? Plastidip can be peeled off with no residue.

unless plasti was applied to cover up damage?

Plasti can ruin clear coats as well. be careful pulling it off...


plasti, second to HID on non projector cars, is the worst car 'mod' that was embraced by the general automotive 'tuner' crowd.

"hey, make your car look like **** for under 100 bux."

God help you if you're doing it on an audi.
