Plasti-Dip on DGM wheels
Got the first two done and mounted. iPhone doesn't take the best pics but in case anyone was wondering what they look like on DGM.

Kept the Suby center caps stock 'cause I think they look good and also did the lugs. Pay no mind to the huge gap above the front tire, I have the other side of the car jacked up while I do those two wheels.

EDIT: Also, 2 cans will do 4 wheels for those wondering how many to get.

Very simple and inexpensive mod! I really like the stock wheels but just didn't like the silver.

I think I'll be doing the Silver Dash pieces in Black next. It looks good in OP's!

very easy!

choose a very hot day to do it. if not, you'll need a hair dryer to heat up the emblems

then a small plastic pry tool and dental floss.

it's pretty straight forward.


you'll also need new 3M double sided tape to re install them again

I haven't used this before... does it come off if you wash it relatively hard with a brush, etc?

no problems with high pressure washers.

not so sure though is you scrub or brush it hard. it might peel if you do it too hard!

I like the idea of plasti dip, but I'm sure a layer of clear coat on top of that would make it look less DIY. Especially the rims. Damn i want a car to play with....
