Hey,
I have a red ss, and thinking about getting some black plasti dip for the evo mod and the center part of the spoiler, as i already have the red/black theme going on.

Wondering if anyone has pics of something similar done..AND where do i buy plasti dip!? Ive looked everywhere.

Thanks in advance

 

haha.. uve looked everywhere huh? go to lowes.. or home depot.. or any hardware store. ask somebody not just look. its hard to spot. and ive seen it done. itll look good. u dont need pics unless your pondering whether or not to do it.

 

yeah home depot. and half the evo mods are plasti dip haha.

 

il give you this

Lol thanks!
But i went to home depot today, talked to 2 people and they had no clue what it was ?
I'll try again tomorrow and also try lowes...hopefully get better luck haha

 

ace hardware and carquest has plasti-dip



heres some pics of the evo mod

 

I got mine in the paint section of home hardware which I guess is like a lowes or home depot.

 

Kinda wish my car weren't black so I could Evo mod it

 

OMG IS THAT SEX!

but;


It's not true that all Ace Hardwares have it because I practically run one (manager) and we do not. Special order only.

 

HOT!

 

White evo mod?

 

I've thought about it. Alot actually. Not sure. I guess with plasti-dip it doesn't matter

 

not red and black, but you get the idea.

 

How well does it hold up to rock chips

 

no issues on the spoiler. Front lip has held up fantastic. Did mine months ago. Pressure washed the car as well...still on. Might have a FEW light knicks not visible...

 

yeah it holds up great. I've had my wheels and front lip painted for awhile now and is still holding up fine!

 

Bah, Just have it painted. Plasti dip is gay. There again I guess unless your wanting to see what it'd look like in person vs. a picture but if its something you for sure want, do it right and dont "rig" it.

I know Cobalts are cheap cars but making them even cheaper, ugh.

 

paint you can take off, ftw haha. used it on my car a week ago and didnt like it so i peeled it off haha.

 

thats all i used it for. I was curious how i would like black wheels.

 

Love the Plasti-dip. Going to redo my evo mod in a few weeks and potentially do the wheels as well.

 

If you have ever used it, you wouldnt call it "gay". You would realize how stupid you sound.

 

eh. i agree with him but nobody wants to RUIN the integrity of there ALREADY CHEAP car as that douche said by painting it. haha. people are so stupid sometimes. i agree that using stuff like plasti dip is just, cheap and teenager like.. ha but it looks really good and actually lasts and it peels right off. i wouldve agreed with him but when he said paint it then i make fun of him. whether he knows it or not. painting the body of a car will look like **** after awhile unless u have somebody do it with the exact same circumstances as when the car was made and painted in the factory. i dont like painting the body of cars. talk about looking cheap and being cheap.

 

Well unless you are a complete douche, you know that plasti dip isnt permanent and allows you do see if you like the mod over time. Sometimes you get that "omgzz!ssZ, it looks great"...at first, then maybe the next week, you realize it was a bad decision. Yes, its a cheap mod, but up close, it does not look cheap when done right.

Thats why i painted both lower and up bars, and the spoiler. The fact that its just staying on the car longer is pure bonus. This stuff up close just looks like flat black...pretty good IMO for 7 bucks.

Yeah, this car is cheap... using that logic, im not gonna spend nearly 600-700 on a "proper" painted front bumper...

 

um? try rereading wat i said ******. didnt make fun of the plasti dip really. said it would be retarded and ******* teenager esk if it didnt look really good. wat i said was painting it like that is ******* stupid. u painted it so ur dumb. tooka way from the value of the car as well as the quality. that **** is gonna start to peel in a couple of years. so enjoy man.

 

Obviously my post was aimed more towards him and obviously not knowing how easy plasti dip is to work with.

And wow, mature...using ****** like its derogatory? Good one...

But apparently YOU do not realize that if i wanted to, i could step outside my house, peel it off, and you could never tell it was on there. So please, explain how it "tooka way from the value of the car as well as the quality". YOU obviously do not understand how it works.

And really? You want to throw out the "teenager esk" word...and you have this?!?!



Please move along and let the adults talk now
