    • Oh hell that's awesome I just watched a video on plastidip and had no idea. I want to do the plastidip grey on my rims then. So you can basically take it off whenever?

      This also adds a protective coating to your car as well?

      IS it expensive to do?

      • Yeah its pretty much vinyl wrap film in a can. To make it easier to remove later you'd do about 6 coats so its nice and thick.

        I got 4 cans for about $100 and used 2 1/2 cans for my wheels and badges so far. Thats 6 coats on everything

                    Or Ashdown Ingram, they may be electrical stockists but they do sell Plasti dip...either that or try TJM.

                    • I did a real quick photoshop job to see what my wheels would look like in black. What does everyone think? Does it suit the shadow blue?

                        • Looks alright, have you thought about white? Could look nice against the blue.

                          • Stay black with green wheels, black out the vw badges and green gti badges and stripe.

                            You'd need to paint the calipers black though

                              Black and blue don't go. Stick with the normal colour or something like gold.
