I'm at work so I posted this http://www.ft86club.com/forums/showp...9&postcount=60 check it out short review of all the stuff I've done to my car since I got it

[503 BRZ]

Likely going to be plasti-dipping my stock rims matte black this weekend. Any tips you guys can give me? This is my first time really plasti-dipping.

I'll likely be doing 4 coats a tire. 20-30 minutes in between each coat. Do I need to do a coat of clear, or anything before I do the black? Any cleaning supplies you guys recommend using during prep?

My advice. Do them unmounted, in doors and don't get to close maybe elbow length away and spray.

Just need to get my STi rear lip pieces matched to the same black as the rest of my kit.

@stockysnail recommended me Europa Autobody on SE Division. I just took in my front lip and side skirts today for a quote, they quoted me $300 painted for Whiteout/SWP. I know it's on the east side, but you should definitely check it out.

When I went in there, they were currently working on a yellow ferrari from Ron Tonkin, so it seems they know what they're doing.

Other place quoted me over $800 prepped, painted, and installed. I'm saving hundreds of dollars with Europa.

Good luck on the tune, what kind of numbers you think it will throw down?

No idea anything close to 200 would be above my expectations

More about the drive ability than the number anyway,
were you tuned local before?

Told you. That's where I took my Lotus, R32, and when I need to my BRZ. Good prices and they work on exotics so their level of detail is good.

If you do index cards, make sure to yank em while it's still wet. I made that mistake my first time and ruined everything
