1/4" if I recall, but the point was that rubber is a more absorbant substance, in direct response to your comment.

As for how it looks, I agree with you. A low res jpg isn't the end all be all of perfection, but it DOES look good from what I can see. Do you think it looks bad because of theory, or because you look at the pic and it really does infact look horrible?

If he likes it, what's the big deal? From the looks of your ride, you made changes and didn't care what people thought (IMO, looks good as well).

Clubs are alike everywhere, the vocal majority dictate I guess.

 

This. Anything that will go on the front of the car will get chipped. Wether its plasti dip, automotive spray paint, powerdercoating, the stock paint from factory. All will get chipped. If you don't think this, look at your front bumper, the stock paint that has a clear coat protection is full of rock chips and whatnot, which i'm sure costed more than plasti dip, but it is still prone to damage.

 

lol @ some of the replies

I'll take a better pic with a legit camera in 2 weeks when i go back home
that way not only will you guys get a good quality pic, but it'll be 2 weeks (and 90% of my driving is highway) to see how its kept up

In my eyes, it looks great/couldn't ask for more. I've never seen so much random hate on a product tho lolol

 

i did my rims and diffuser.. came out pretty good. got lazy but plan to do the grille soon too.

plasti dip + gloss black + clear = win.

 

all I see is orange peel...

 

i like

 

just go primer then flat painttttttt

 

Heres over a month later with plasti diffuser and grill. Its been snowing so its dirty and these are the best pics I got.













No chips or anything, just dirty because of the snow (and also a bad job painting).

 

^ Not bad not bad

But I think ima pass on plastidipping the diffuser. I saw a pic of the nismo cf one and im in love/want that now! :P

 

start saving money, ill be getting a cs rear soon

 

I plasti-dipped my grill and rear diffuser about 6 months ago and it still looks great.

 

plastidip are sturdy as hell, i tested it on a glass counter, peeled it off, held it up then stretch it out then i tried to push my finger thru it. it took more force than i expected it to take in order to rip thru it. plastidip ftw! (if done in the right way)

 

smitty- mounted his license plate weird. thats all i got to say lol

 

Previous owner had a license plate which i removed, so now I'm stuck with a towing hook cover hole and 2 accompanying bumper plug holes.

 

^was talking about the rear plate. why is it extra low?
