Plasti Dipping the "mustache"?
anyone tried it? I have WRBP and was wondering what if i white plasti the wheels, maybe the handles, and the "mustache"?
do you guys know what exteriors to contrast (handles, spoilers, rims, bumper, mirrors) without plasti dipping the whole car? and i'd like to see other color variations. |

It's plasti-dip. Just go ahead and do it. Worst case scenario you peel it off...
Why do you need to ask these questions? |

IMO, White plasti is going to look dirty quickly. If you do use it, the more coats the better. Because, the thicker you lay it on, the easier it peels off. Or spray some plasti gloss on top of the white to make it tougher and glossy.
If done right, it will last awhile. You will have to re-plasti the parts ever 18-24 months though to keep them fresh looking. Good luck! Pro tip: When cans are getting empty, stick them in a tub of hot sink water. This will increase the pressure inside the can allowing you to use most of it, before it starts to "spittle" on your parts.

Still waiting for someone to do a ginger Ned Flanders 'tash.
Nobody here is punk enough. I've got the FR-S, so no 'tash. Derp eyes and fangs. Happy Halloween!
