white plasti dip stock rims
 

Just a tip its easier to mask off the tires than to pull the plasti dip off the tires.

That actually looks pretty cool

i think i might do that next time haha

That looks really nice. You done good!

I'm really happy with the results. Took a while to do it.

I wonder what this would look like on a firestorm..

Not trying to be an ass but they look a little rough around the edges.

I loved mine white.. but they attract the brake dust like none other! Will probably be switching for new rims soon anyways tho

They are. It was just a test run to see if I wanted to powdercoat them. I wasn't going for perfection with them.

It's an excuse for upgraded pads and rotors. Some have very little dust.

What is powder coat? O.O

Powdercoat is a process involving some form of paint and baking it. It's tougher than just paint

Just plasti dipped mine white today as well. looks really good on GBS

Oh I know, but I'm planning on going to a big brake kit eventually, and its winter here so anytime I clean my car its dirtier than before I started.. so come summer every thing will get switched around.

And I didn't go powder coat in case I didn't like the white and wanted the stock look back.

This is good to see as I have been considering doing this for my Hot Lava 86 :)

Just a hint for the future, mask up the valve stems as well and really take your time getting all the masking right. Other than that, nice job!

Thanx Ezwood. I was thinking about doing this 2 weeks ago and wondered how it would look. It looks great. :w00t:

Pics or didn't happen!

Wow! These look way better than I imagined lol

Well... I'm sold. All one color my wheels are going.

They look SO MUCH BETTER. :)

next time mask off the tire needle as well LOL

Wow looks really good! How long does plasti-dip usually last? I kinda want to do this myself (not gonna do the powder coat cuz I want something easily reversible), but also don't want to plasti-dip to start chipping after a couple months or something.

Good look :thumbup:

I'm seriously considering to plastidip mine now.
I'm checking also the new pearlizer from Plastidip. Have you?

At first I was gonna do white with the gold clear then just the clear on top of that. Found white plasti dip at lowes, so I went for it with just the white.

You do probably know the PlastiDip guru don't you?
dipyourcar.com

I've watched some of their videos

That really does look quite good!

Has anyone tried the pearlizer?

I see you plasti-dipped the inside of the rim too....was that part hard to do? Did you do that first or did the front face of the rims first?

It's looks SO nice!

I plastidipped mine white back in july/augusy and they are still holding up very well. It's pretty tough stuff if you clean the surface very well

Did mine yesterday. First time using plasti dip. Didn't come out perfect, but it isn't too bad.

Tip: Careful with the lug nuts!

OP do you have any pictures from further away from the car, and thanks in advance I've been wanting to do this but waiting for someone else to take the plunge!

Doing this tomorrow, picked up my dip earlier.

i just plasti dip mine black on my hot lava but phone died, will post pics tomorrow

I just finished mine now, I used 4 cans, and 100 note cards. I will be posting photos in a bit, waiting for them to dry to put on my car. Roughly 3 hours in paint time. Quite satisfied with them, 2 feet away you can't tell they're dipped. Average person probably wouldn't be able to tell at all.
