Welcome to the Forum!


Lovely looking GP you have there, the abarth headlights will look great on her.

How well is the plasti dip lasting on your rims?

Im thinking of doing mine for the summer.

thanks!
the plastidip is actually holding a lot better than i thought when i bought it. it is now almost a year old and it looks exactly as the first time i applied it. i clean them using a pressure washer and everything holds up really well. i really like the matte effect and i cant decide whether to paint them matte or glossy:/

Welcome to the forum. Certainly is a nice GP. Definitely keep them Matt, don't go gloss. Chavvy IMO. I'm thinking of plasti-dipping my spoiler soon, as painting it failed. So going to 'cheat' and get a nice black finish

How in gods name is gloss black chavvy?!?!?! That would mean his car is also chavvy as its also gloss black... I know you are on about wheels here but its the same thing!
What a silly opinion.

Car looks great man, love what you've dont to it so far!

Haha, yeah fair point. I was on about the wheels, i understand how silly that can come across with the car being glossy too, but i did mean the wheels. Shiny, glossy wheels always look tacky/chavvy IMO. I did state "IMO" in the initial post, and thats all it was...an opinion. Keep your hair on...

Dont worry sir, my hair is planted firmly on my head. I did say "What a silly opinion".
I know it is your opinion but shiny wheels arent tacky.
Diamond cut wheels with black detailing are tacky. Take for example the wheels that come on the bravo sport models. Cack.

Anyway, enough about opinions, lets leave this poor chaps thread alone.

Hello again
Lots of spare time last week. found the opportunity to take of my wheels and finally give them the respray/upgrade from plasti dip that i wanted. i went for high gloss black. what are your opinions for them? while the car was up i also painted my calipers red. she also got a nice clean and wax ohh and i stole an idea from another GP around here and masked my headlights a bit. enjoy the pics
