Stock wheels painted gunmetal with silver center caps and BLUE lugs? *PlastiDip test*

Re: Stock wheels painted gunmetal with silver center caps and BLUE lugs? *PlastiDip t

make sure ur lugs are ball/round shape ones, cuz thats what the oem are...

most aftermarket lugs with colors are acorn/40,60degree angle,

so make sure u buy the right one before fatality happens

Plasti-Dip'd one wheel.. It was at night, so the lighting isn't natural, doesn't look as good as it did IRL.

Would loo WAY better if my car wasn't stock height.. Didn't paint the centercap as this was a test. I do plan on doing it, accompanying the wheels with blue lugs also.

I plasti dipped my wheels white last week to see what they would look like. It doesnt seem too hard to take off, but we shall see tomorrow..

Thanks for that, I had no idea how to approach buying the lugs. I found them in blue but I don't think I want them blue anymore lol. Seems like they would stand out way too much and look kind of ricey..

I know, dude. When I get a job(17yrs), I'll save some money up for a coilover kit.

Plasti-Dip when applied properly can be pretty strong(four or five coats).

Check it @ 00:25
