Default Plasti dip

I'm officially hooked! Just painted my silver Sahara fenders and I already love the way it looks. I'm putting on a teraflex leveling kit and 295/70r18 Nitto Trail Grapplers on Friday. I'm going to plasti dip my rims afterwards. I'm really looking forward to seeing the end result.

Not yet. I'm letting it dry over night before I clean up the overspray. I will try to post some tomorrow or Thursday.

I saw a plasti dipped grill that looked sweet. Might consider doing that at some point.

I also did the front chrome jeep emblem and the trail rated badge. Great stuff.

I used 2 cans do far. I applied 4 good coats on the fenders and 2 on the emblem and trail rated badge. I'm going to let it sit until tomorrow afternoon. Then I will clean up and touch up if needed. I will post pics when I'm finished. I will be putting on my teraflex leveling kit and tires on Friday. I'm going to plasti dip my stock rims next weekend. I also took off the silver pieces on both bumpers and painted the bumpers with krylon fusion satin black to match the mirrors.

Looks great. I sprayed my marker light with plasti dip, very lightly but enough where the orange isn't showing unless its lit up. I like the look

Thanks! Now I'm ready for the lift and tires this weekend! I'm thinking about dippin my rims and leaving the center caps and lugs silver. I haven't decided yet.
