I Love Plastidip!

Yeah, I said it.

Its cheap, easy to work with and can be painted.

If I Plastidip my wheels and scuff them up I can take them off and throw a few coats on and have my wheels back to the way I like them.

I'm not poor but I don't have extra money just laying around for me to powder-coat every accessory I have a mortgages, student loans and insurance which is enough for a 23 year old.

So as the thread states....I love plastidip. Call me rice. Call me cheap. I am merely speaking the truth.

Winter Wheels-


18 OEM-Don't know what I'm going to do with them. But was bored so I Plastidipped them.

Just some wheels.

I am seeing these plastidip threads also where people get flamed to death for plastidipping something. I am defending the plastidippers. Who gives a **** if it isn't paint and what it feels like. If it looks okay in the owners opinion then let it go people.

That looks terrible....

Jarvo had you said you painted them it would have been better since paint takes work. This is sprayed on and looks like ****.

Do it the right way or not at all. You could have prepped these, primed them and painted them for less than $50. But you choose to use plastidip which looks like absolute ****.
