I plastidipped mines black when I first got my car in January. It comes out to a matte black finish but you can use the glossifier if you want a more "wet" look. Mines hasn't peeled or cracked yet!

I had no experience spraying anything but I was pleased with the outcome lol. Much easier to use than using actual paint

That was one of the first things I did to mine, didn't like the stock look at all. There's pics somewhere in the forums.
Only bummer is you can't get the other colors and metalizers here. Only find black, red, clear, blue. I want to try the copper.

Just paint the darn things with some sort of can spray paint! I'm going to try out a matte bronze finish, and if it comes out looking like the arse end of a Pontiac Aztec, I'm going to let them soak in 3m adhesive remover, scrub down or pressure wash off, then protect tire with 3m tire restore.

Do you know if anyone will ship to Hawaii? That's the prob, shipping aerosols to Hawaii. Someone told me if you buy the gallons they will ship, but that means getting a whole spray setup. And ending up with a gallon of copper paint.... Might get tired of having all the lawn furniture, mailbox, garbage can copper colored.
