Since my paint looked horrible after the accident, I decided to try something new that I haven't seen anyone do around here.

If you aren't familiar with PlastiDip, google it. Its an amazing product. It is super easy to shoot, very forgiving when it comes to runs in the paint, and has minimal overspray. The best part about it - when you want to get rid of it, you just peel it off!

Here are the pics...

I absolutely love how it came out. It has a very weird flat black finish, but is slightly glossy at the right angle.

After today, I am definitely thinking about painting the GenCoupe. :)

Interesting results, I've thought about doing a few pieces here and there, be curious for wear and tear updates.

I did the front grill and side view mirrors a couple of weeks before the Cookout. No one noticed them, but they took some bug splats, and cleaned up nicely.

They say it can withstand high temps and the cold we get here in the winter. I'm curious how it will hold up through the winter.

I didn't know you wanted to do this too, AJ! I am going to reshoot my roof in the next couple of weeks. You should swing by then. I'll let you know.

Very nice. I did the engine bay of the Evo last summer. Also did the rims on the Spyder. The stuff works great.

Peal roof, Gloss black roof would be nice to, and the window trims. Looks good. Please don't do the gen unless it's white. :)
