Does any one have any pics of them painted with color. I did a few things with blk dip and then sprayed a few coats of colored spray paint. It still peels away the same.

All of their colors are all available on http://www.dipyourcar.com
They have some new sweet "BLAZE" colors, but here's mine! Also, dipyourcar's youtube account page literally has everything you would ever need to know about plasti-dipping your car.

This a pretty good idea to get a general idea of how something will look before you do something permanent.
I will have to remember this

Just dipped mine over the weekend. The color is "blaze green" from dipyourcar.com

The pics don't do justice. Much brighter in person. I used 1 can per wheel.

I like that green!

Anyone dipped your wheels for winter? I think I'm going to do it, then remove it in the spring.

Different car, but this was after 14 months straight use and minor touch ups if any

Everyone's wheels look great!

Can someone give me a suggestion for a color for my wheels? My car is currently on the winter setup with stock wheels and idk which color would look best. My car is flat black and here is a picture.



What color should would look good in your opinion? Blue? Green? Black? I don't want to do white because it will be too hard to keep clean.

Are you guys taping off the lug holes or just spraying everywhere? I got all my plasti-dip ready to go, just not sure if the lug nuts are going to rip the paint at those contact points along the holes.

Why is everybody calling them "door bumpers"? They're called rub strips..

I did not tape mine either...I guess it's only the top part of the lug nut that got sprayed. spray it thick about 4 coats minimum!
