I want to do this. I love it because it is not a permanent thing. It makes me want to do it bright matte blue or something. Awesome! I do have a question though, and I hope it isn't too stupid. Can you buy plasti dip in a gallon paint can to use it with a sprayer? I have only ever seen it in the spray can and I think that would take a lot of cans haha. Any help from the OP (or whoever knows) would be great!
Thanks for the inspiration!!!!

I did it a long time ago to my s2000...I was actually one of the first guys to dip their entire car...
Matte red (real color is bright red)
My Jeep I only have the front grill so far...
They have a ton of stock colors and the custom combos are endless. I think I am going to go with matte gecko green (monster green on their site) pearl during the spring.

Are you talking platidip.com? I am just wondering because I can't seem to find a "monster green" on their site. I really want to do my jeep some cool colour like green or blue. Even the red you did on the s2000 looks great. Does it look that good because of the red original paint or does the plasti dip cover up the original paint enough that it doesn't matter what the base coat is? Thanks! Also your JKU made me okay with getting 33's and a small lift because of the pictures you posted on other threads so thanks for that too!

Good job! I like the matte black look.
As for the durability, I did my wheels a few months ago and they are still like new through half of an Alberta winter. I also went through a car wash with the hard brushes that pulverize your wheels and it held up just fine, it actually came out like new.
