As long as you're satisfied with it. I would have kept the roof and mirrors gloss black as well... would be a little too much teal otherwise. Best part is, you can peel it off and wear another color when you get bored of it.

And holy crap, the peace of mind from not having to worry about bird shit and swirl marks on your paint ~__~

I also like the black that remains.
My wife would be ecstatic if I went with that colour scheme. She got so mad when I got an orange car.

Same as her car:

Time to grab yourself some aftermarket wheels at least!
I don't mind plastidip... except on an all stock car, it makes it look a bit cheap.

Politest invasion ever. Mind if we take over buddy? :lol:

Why not? They could check their sofa cushions for change and just buy Detroit. :thumbsup:


Sorry, back to what we were discussing. I actually really like the black accents, it really makes them pop. Like having a white car with a black roof and mirrors.

Mixing is rough. I made the mistake of buying a bunch of gallons and the dyes to make BMW M Sport colors for some people... the darker colors take a TON of dye.

Really dig the color, but get it wrapped so it can be glossy. Matte is usually pretty meh.

Once I get an extra grand to drop I might consider a wrap but for now plasti dip is my shit :)
