yea....it's comes out flat black. I've heard of people trying to put a layer of clear over it to give a little gloss but i don't think it came out that well.

Wow...i think I have been hiding under a rock! Didn't even know this product exists.


Any Pics of Plastic-DIP emblems on a WDP?

So, a little confused here.

With plasti-dip all you have to do is spray it all over the emblem - even while its still on the car and then just peel off the excess from the paint? It dosen't leave marks on the pant or finish??

If so, thats AWSOME!!!!!! Haha

that is correct because when it dries it become like a rubber susbstance, hence the "plastic-dip" so its safe on the paint. almost like peeling tape off the car lol

Jeez, so much anger! These are the only ones I had on my work lappy, will post more when I get back into town friday night. It's not like it's brand new or anything, it's an 04, and I got a sick deal on it (couldn't pass it up). Only 11k miles, never seen bad weather a day in it's life (that I could tell). Paint is beautiful. Only prob is the previous owner wasn't great with curbs

^Agree! (Fixed)

OP-Nice Ride, and good pick up!
Nice Home for both the rides! Hope to see ya at a local meet sometime!

As far as the Plasti Dip, I don't agree with the "spray them while on the vehicle", although I have not attempted to change the color on the Emblems, yet....When I do, I will plan to remove them from the car.

Definately. We'll talk about it in the regions section.

EDIT- I posted up a thread over there.
