I'd rather not post it until everything is settled...

I'll dip it in black and then do a green metalizer over the black, OR I might do the outline in black over the top of alternating green and blue metalizer, then I'll dip the wheels to match.

p.s. now you've got me thinking, I can do the same thing with a wrap and it will be less prone to peeling...shit...got some figuring to do...
Definitely dont dip, you wont get as clean lines as with vinyl but interesting, not my taste but not my car
