No I have not - that might be the next step (this was more like a trial run to see if I liked where it was going).
Definitely need to do better masking and peeling.

Looks like you may have peeled too late. The plasti-dip was already fully cured/set.

Wrapped all the silver interior pieces glossy white just for something different. It took about 2+ hours to wrap everything so, if you aren't patient I wouldn't recommend doing this! Installed trunk, dome and license plate LED's thanks to Diode Dynamics!

Yeah agreed, one pretty much has to mask off, spray, then remove the mask, THEN allow the plastidip to set. Obviously keep the mask on if you're spraying, then touching up with more spray, but once you're done, definitely need to unmask. Good reminder!

Ordered the OFT & Header & Perrin cat back. Thinking the supercharger won't be far behind for the next mod.

Both of these happened yesterday:

At the tint shop, 35% sides and 20% rear.


On the way home from the tint shop.

I took my BRZ up to 7k RMPs for the first time

I saw a little light on the dash, and went "oh that must be what the shift light looks like."
