Looks great! Glad to see someone in the 86 community realizes the pros of dipping! You never need to scrub anything because nothing sticks to it!

It looks absolutely ridiculous. The factory paint is much more durable IMO, then again i maintain my car. There may be no flaw in the way it was done, just looks ridiculous. Plastiderp

The best thing about plastidip is the ability to reverse what you did. It may not be fun taking off, but you can!

If that is the direction you'd like to go a wrap looks a hell of a lot better because its not some cheap ass plastidip. It is a hell of a lot cleaner looking as well.

I say dip it!!!

People who don't like plasti dip need to jump off the vinyl high horse. ITS ALL REVERSIBLE. So it doesn't matter.

I feel like someone is trying to push their opinion on everyone. Posting that you do not like the look of something really only needs to be done once. I like both the plastidip and vinyl wrap, but can easily understand why one would go with the plastidip. If it is at a lower cost to me and still looks very good I would go for that........again this is just my one post opinion.
