So I decided to dip my wheels anthracite. I was up in the air because I thought it might match my paint too well. I thought about black but I didn't want it to look cheap. I bought the cans from dipyourcar and the results were awesome. I absolutely love it. Once it's lowered it's going to look mean. It looks like a completely different car from when I first bought it.

I would love to do that, but I'm worried to go through all that effort and miss a spot during cleaning and prep and then it peel off too easily.

Did you pull each wheel or do it on the car? I seethe lugs look original (which I like).

Plasti dip is an amazing thing. If you mess up on a spot you can easily fix it by cutting that area out and just re coat it.
I did them on the car. However I did mask the brakes and used something for the tires. I've been plasti dipping stuff for awhile so I'm pretty ninja with it.

Typically I would pull the wheels but I guess you could say I was being lazy.

I just dipped the lugs and emblem then peeled it off of those. Really easy.

I did wash the wheels however. It came out awesome. I'll get some more pics tomorrow.
