Evo Mod Vote

So yesterday I cracked my lip in a driveway, but it wasn't destroyed so I fixed it with some JB Weld. I don't really feel like prepping and painting it, so I was gonna use an evo mod to cover where the paint got cracked and chipped. I wanna do something different though, I am less than 1% considering the general black pasti-dip thing, too played out.

What I am considering, vinyl wrap (carbon fiber, houndstooth, burberry, something different), custom sticker bomb (chilidish but something different), possibly just going ahead with paint and prep (leaving it white or doing black or some other color for the evo mod look), or yes, the played out plasti-dip (don't want to but might consider it).

Vote! Thanks. Car is white by the way,and whatever I decide I am going to my interior trim also, it's plasti dipped right now and it is kinda eh to me so its gotta go.

It's pretty low... That's how I cracked it on an unfamiliar driveway haha. The lip that came on the car got torn in half over a year ago from debris on the highway, so 2 broken lips in 2 years, not bad

i say paint, you have well any color imaginable actually.. and while i think the same for plasti-dip paints just looks better in the long run without having to take care of it... and cleared the right way rock chips wont happen....

mines actually in the body shop right now getting this done among a few other things..

Thanks for the input. I'm gonna leave the poll up for like a week or two before I decide ultimately what I wanna do. So many options really.

None.

If you must, black plasti dip so you can take it off later.

I could theoretically not do it and fix the paint with a spray can. Duplicolor has my paint code and it is 99% spot on, I just feel like if I am going to do the prep work I might as well do something different.

Plastidip > paint when it comes to the Evo mod.
