wow that actually looks very nice. when you inspect it closely, does it look 'uneven' or anything?
can you tell it's been sprayed when you inspect it closely?
i wouldn't plastidip my interior, as i plan to vinyl it. but this is a very easy alternative for others. looks good!

Wow...those are the interior pieces that I feel look like sht on my car. Was looking into getting a brushed aluminum vinyl but this is a good alternative. I wonder how it'll hold up. I have all these nicks and dents on mine and I can't figure out how i caused that much damage.
Also, you plan on doing all the other silve pieces that wrap onto the door panels?

First you should move your seat all the way back, then use like a butter knife and start at the bottom at the armrest. Then once I got it started I basically used my almighty strength and pulled the trim off releasing clip by clip all the way to the top lol
The trim does get flexed a little but you can bend it back.

So what your saying is I can paint the center of my wheels and If I dont like it I can simply peel it off and have a perfect paint underneath ???
How do you prepare the surface ? Just clean it and spray on Plastic Dip spray ?
