Well Here are some pics from what I did this weekend.
Before
During
After
Used 4 cans of black Plasti-Dip, 1 can of clear Plasti-Dip (I didn't realize till afterward it was going to be a matte finish, but I liked it anyway, heh), and a partial can of Nite Shades with a coat of clear Plasti-Dip on the taillights.
2 fairly thick coats on the inside part of the wheel, 4 coats on the front face, then a couple coats of the clear Plasti-dip over top. Turned out pretty well I think.
It was a fair bit of work. But worth it in the end.
Looks WAAAAY better than before IMO. haha

) and the black plasti-dip hides it pretty well, but it seems the white stuff doesn't do as good a job of hiding them. Good thing I didn't go white!Unless, of course, that IS dirt. Then I agree completely. Prep is key to a good finished product.
